Quote for the Day:
"God gave me this skin colour, he also made us what we are.
So, in Junior High School I could do two things.
I was an athlete, so I could run real fast, and I could sing, which helped me mix with the Black Americans, the sisters, who accepted me for who I was.
When they heard me sing they were like, 'whoa, is that you?!'
It's something I think God gave me, to help me break down that divide.
Someone said to me, 'I never had a white friend, until I met you".

"Who knows when the end may come.
And at 76 and a half years old I'm not going to sit around waiting for something.

I have too much to live for now and be happy about."
