QUOTE A DAY - May 26, 2011

Greetings fellow quote lovers:

I can hardly believe May is almost over. Time seems to be accelerating from the time I was young. When I was 10, each Sunday seemed like a week. Now a week seems like a day.

Have a wonderful weekend. Make sure you get out and away from the computer, if only for a little while.

Best,

JA
