FReeper Canteen ~ Sunday Chapel ~ AIM HIGH ~ 3 August 2014
Serving The Best Troops & Veterans In The World !! | The Canteen Crew

AIM HIGH


A college professor prepared a final exam for his students. The test questions were divided into three categories, and the students were instructed to choose questions from only one of the categories. The first category of questions was the hardest and worth fifty points. The second, which was easier, was worth forty points. The third, the simplest, was worth thirty points.

Upon completion of the test, students who had chosen the hardest fifty-point questions were given As.

The students who had chosen the forty-point questions received Bs.

Those who had settled for the easiest thirty-pointers were given Cs

Some of the students were frustrated with the grading of their papers and asked the professor what he was looking for. The professor leaned over the podium, smiled, and explained, 'I wasn’t testing your book knowledge. I was testing your aim.'"

Robert Kriegel put it this way: "The key is to have a dream that inspires you to go beyond your limits."

One lovely Southern Lady gave me a great compliment on the authenticity of our Southern Gospel sound.

I shared my little secret that I’m from BAWSTON! LOL!

I’ve been giving fish filets away for several months to my sister, cousin, fellow church members, neighbors, and anyone who wants them.

I have been nicknamed “Mr. Crappie” at the local marina. I use jigs only, and usually out catch the ones using minnows three or four to one.
