 Jack’s Winning Words 4/30/21

“You’ll never reach your destination if you stop to throw stones at every dog that barks at you.”  (Winston Churchill)  There’s lots of “barking” going on these days.  It sort of reminds me of the carnival pitchmen (barkers) who’d try to get our attention.  A friend of mine would say, “Jack, remember to make the main thing the main thing.”  In other words, “Keep your focus on the main event, not the sideshow.  I try to keep that in mind as I watch the news and read the ads.  Churchill was a great leader, because he was able to focus.  It makes for a more peaceful life, too.  ;-)  Jack 

FROM A POLICE OFFICER:  Love it===JACK:  Do you remember the saying, "Sticks and stones...etc?"  We appreciate the job you are doing.

FROM THE SHARK:  I 2nd the motion.
