Jack’s Winning Words 9/5/14
“Bite off more than you can chew, then chew it.  Plan more than you can do, then do it.”  (Joe Paterno)  We all need challenges.  JoePa had more than his share.  As the saying goes, hindsight is always 20/20.  But Paterno was a great coach and was able to fire up his players.  The 10 Commandments are more than a set of laws.  Each commandment is a life challenge.  Talk about biting off more than you can chew…    ;-)  Jack

FROM TARMART REV:  Good comparison this morning, Jack . . . the 10 Commandments are definitely more than I can chew . . . guilty myself of not being able to keep them . . . may look as if I'm doing so on the outside, but definitely in need of a Savior from within my heart . . . guilty as charged, here, Jack!!====JACK:  10 Commandments?  Reread them and "chew-chew" on them.  That should be interesting, since you're a railroad chaplain.

FROM CS UP NORTH IN MICHIGAN:  Good morning. I heard that Linda Ellerbee has a new book out called "take big bites".  Sounds like fun.====JACK:  Linda's life has been more than what has been shown on TV. 

FROM FACEBOOK LIZ:  Like. & I still like & admire Joe Paterno... think he got a bum rap. ====JACK:  Joe was "old-school," and sometimes you get trapped by the "new school" rules.  It was an unfortunate end to an otherwise illustrious career
