Last night, the pilot & copilot lost their lives when their plane struck a fire truck.

It happened at LaGuardia Airport when the Air Canada plane was landing at 104 mph.

The air traffic controller said, “I guess I messed up!”

Accidents happen.

My heart goes out to all those involved.

We never know when our time will come.

I hope neither pilot took lingering regrets with them.

If you must seek forgiveness, DO IT TODAY!

If not today, when?

The seven-time Super Bowl champion hasn’t appeared in the league since the 2022 season, spending the past two years as an NFL broadcast analyst for Fox Sports.

Brady is also a minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders.

He initially retired from the NFL after the 2021 season, but announced that he’d be returning for one more year just under two months later.

Brady’s legendary career includes 15 Pro Bowl nods, three MVP awards and two Offensive Player of the Year honors. He sits at No. 1 on the NFL’s all-time passing yards list, completions list and passing touchdowns leaderboard.

While Brady is several years removed from his latest retirement, he showed some of the accuracy and timing that defined his NFL tenure on Saturday.

He finished 6-of-8 for 61 yards and two touchdowns during the Fanatics Flag Football Classic (h/t Diamond Leung of the Las Vegas Review-Journal).

Nordic countries were guaranteed a spot on the podium.

Actually, all three spots on the podium.

According to the latest edition of the World Happiness Report, the three happiest countries in the world are Finland, Iceland and Denmark.

Finland was named the happiest country in the world for a record 9th time in a row.

Iceland finished second and Denmark took third place in the ranking.

The Report is compiled by the Wellbeing Research Centre at the University of Oxford.

It is included in the Annual Report On Global Happiness. (CNN)

Sean Penn finally got his hands on his third Oscar… sort of.

The “One Battle After Another” star, who was a no-show at the Academy Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday when he won the best supporting actor Oscar for that film.

He was seen in a video published on social media on Tuesday receiving a makeshift version of the statuette in Ukraine.

The clip showed the 65-year-old actor, activist and humanitarian receiving a flat, metallic trophy in the unmistakable silhouette of the Academy Award.

Although a controversial figure thoughout his life, he has made this a better place.

I hope you’re not too busy to notice one of God’s miracles.

I know you have some worrisome issues that take your attention.

After all, you’ve seen tulips before.

That’s all the more reason to give that beautiful flower a moment of your time.

It may be the only moment that will bring you peace today.

Better yet, why not pickup a dozen of them to be the centerpiece on your dinner table tonight?

Remember, as long as you’re alive, you have reason to REJOICE!

They are nutrient-dense, rich in antioxidants and ellagic acid.

Also, high in vitamin C, manganese and fiber.

All of these ingredients support heart health and reduce inflammation.

If they are used in jams, jellies or pies, they are harvested by machine.

If sold fresh in grocery stores, they are hand picked one at a time.

They must be hand picked because they bruise or are crushed easily.

Now, you learned something you didn’t know before.

So you see, raspberries are berry good for you!

Too many uncertainties today!

The last thing you should be uncertain about is your closeness with loved ones and friends.

Everything is in a chaotic state of affairs.

So, what can you do about it?

You can’t change the world out there, but you can change YOUR world…

…if it needs changing.

Do EVERYTHING you can to be sure your relationships are where they should be.

As they used to say, “Time to pull the wagons in a circle!”

If not today, when?

(Wayne Gretzky)

Over and over again, we’re reminded it’s better to fail than not to try.

We see that message repeated by the great Wayne Gretzky.

And Michael Jordan told us he missed 9,000 shots on his way to stardom!

With the coming of AI, each of us must be willing to try something new.

Most of us are comfortable with our old habits.

We know, however, that old habits won’t work in a new environment.

When Wayne Gretzky first stepped onto the ice, I’m sure he fell.

But he got up again.

When Michaell Jordan missed those 9,000 shots, he kept on shooting.

We MUST become players in the new AI world!

Will you become a player?

If not today, when?

Yes, the process called THE DRAFT ended in 1973

Thereafter, our country had to rely on true patriots.

And we have ever since.

Some of our fellow citizens believe patriotism is decreasing.

The 2026 World Population Review Report says 41% of Americans believe we’re the most patriotic.

Always keep those VOLUNTEERS in your prayers!

If not today, when!

Yes, it’s a pint of Guiness, alright.

But the beer is 0.0 alcohol and it’s called, “Never Drinking Again.”

Ireland has experienced a 34% drop in alcohol consumption in the last two decades.

For people in Dublin, losing the booze is still part of a night out.

And it’s mostly young people going alcohol-free.

More people feel like they can go out and have fun and not get drunk.

It’s progress.

I GUESS!
