Wow! Another snowy morning and the Auburn Tigers are the National Champs! Two very rare things! This is the first time since 1957 that Auburn has held the title. I was around for that one too, but a bit young to remember. I was born in 1956 to a pair of Auburn students. I suppose timing just a tad different I would have been born on campus. OK, so it isn't world peace or the end of hunger on the planet, or the discovery of life on another one - but it is nice, and it feels good. So I sit here looking out my window at the snow, sipping coffee, knowing my team is No 1, and this time - I will be able to remember it!! What I want to know is, what made you smile today? What small (or large) thing happened, either to you or something you heard about, that made you smile?

A word about the snow. It is pretty and great to watch grown ups acting like children again. For a little while, life stops, worries or forgotten and everybody just goes out to - play. It is also very rare here. I grew up in a town about 30 miles away and remember 2 large snows like this as a child and had heard of only 1 since then - which turns out to have been in 1988.

I also saw this nice little article about ways to make money. These are ideas not companies trying to sign people up. Maybe one of these ideas will work for you or some one you know.
