People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.

That is a great video.

I love Christmas lights!!

Every year, I go to my Dad's house and we spend 4 straight days doing lights.  Sometimes it takes 3 days if I don't get cut by the death stick. (long story but its a tool my dad invented to put up lights)

The Arnone house has to be the brightest on the block. We do it all by hand, no fancy cherry pickers. I'll get some pictures and post them this weekend. I mention that becuase somebody on the block had pros come in. They gave us a run for our money but we went back and did more lights!

If anyone lives near NYC, there is house in Mahwah, NJ wich sets records for the number of Christmas lights.

Its owned by an Elvis impersonator and it is something you have to check out!

Chevy Chase is one of those actors who is funny, but in a completely natural way.  Like he doesn't even seem like he's trying to be funny, but through his actions he is funny. He was also funny in man of the house.

How long did that take?   It looks great, but seems very time intensive.
