Overheard in a Yaris

"Hey Mommy, that's exit 16. That's the exit we took the other day to that...place."
"You're right James. That's the exit to the Mt. Hope cemetery. That was a fun day walking around and exploring wasn't it?"
"It sure was Mommy! Hey, why don't we go back to the cem'tery? We should stay there forever."
"Speak for yourself buddy."

Today's 1%: Book 22/50-- Life in Motion. Misty Copeland, first African American principal dancer with the ABT writes of her childhood and journey to ABT. Amazing to think that somebody who didn't even BEGIN ballet training until 13 could succeed so quickly and dramatically. A quick and inspiring read.
