Tman sends us a link to the story about a football team who bought a house for Sara Wood who lost her husband, Scott, a 35-year-old soldier, just four weeks ago. You should read the story rather than have me blather on about it.

So often we are grumbling around here. Thanks for posting some things which remind us that there remain a whole bunch of Americans worthy of the name.

Dang allergies are acting up again.

I was at the game. Luckily I had just got nachos and had napkins handy! I bet there wasn’t a dry eye in the stadium.

Dagnabit!!! Allergies are acting up again.

I also made the mistake or reading some of the comments attached to the article. I’ll be back, I gotta buy another 1000 rounds of ammo!!!

After all the bad and craptacular stuff that gets printed these days, it’s so very nice to see these stories. God bless the Texans and all who pay it forward.

He must have been a fine man to have such a wonderful wife and son.

It must have gotten really cold all the sudden my nose is all stuffy, and my eyes are a little watery.

There are days, like dealing with any OWS stuff, where you want to lose your faith in America. But then you see this stuff and it reminds you that this country is still great.
