Amazing Grace
My mother-in-law, Ruth, passed away this week. My brother’s wife, Carla, was generous enough to sing at Ruth’s funeral. She was amazing. I heard angels.

Let me tell you why I think HH Gregg is awesome.
A couple of months ago we purchased a 52″ LCD flat panel television from HH Gregg. It was very nice (notice the past tense). Two weeks ago, some dirtbags broke into our house and stole it. The police have a few leads, but I’m not holding my breath.
Since we liked the TV so much — and since State Farm is paying for a new one — we went back to HH Gregg. I told the manager what happened and said I wanted the exact same TV we had before. He checked the computer and let us know that they didn’t have the exact same model, but they had the slightly newer version. I asked him if it was more expensive. He said, No, it’s about the same price, but I’ll be giving it to you at cost since I refuse to profit off of other’s misfortune.
How friggin cool is that! Needless to say, we will be going back there again.
Note to Dirtbags: We now have an alarm system and video surveillance, so don’t bother coming around to try and steal the new one. You’ll just get caught. And, oh yeah, you suck!
So the first week of school at Auburn as a PhD student has left me with a few new accomplishments under my belt.
All in all, I’d say things are starting off with a bang!
