Uncommon


I just finished "Uncommon"by Tony Dungy. It was a great read. There were a number of practical ways that he talked about in finding your path to significance. He stressed about the fact that success is uncommon, therefore not to be enjoyed by the common man. There are 7 parts to becoming uncommon...

Part 1: Develop Your Core
Part 2: Love your family
Part 3: Lift your friends and otheres
Part4: Your full potential
Part 5: Establish a mission that matters
Part 6: Choose influence over image
Part 7: Live your faith

I would suggest you put it up!

Are you serious?

This article is from Jonathan McKee Blog

I have to admit, I've never heard of these being stolen before, but I guess anything's possible!

CNN linked this story from KTLA News: Woman Sought for Stealing Breast Implants.

LOL.

This story writes itself.

HUNTINGTON BEACH -- Police are searching for a 30-year-old woman accused of stealing someone's identity and a pair of new breast implants.

Yvonne Pampellonne is accused of using a fake id to pay for liposuction and new breast implants valued at more than $12,000. According to Huntington Beach police, Pampellonne opened a line of credit in someone else's name in September 2008.

Huntington Beach police detective Larry Pitcher said Pampellone lied to her doctor and the staff at the Pacific Center for Plastic Surgery about her name and other personal identification. She used the credit to have the procedures done and never showed up for any follow-up appointments, Pitcher said.

So I'm curious. If they catch her... does she have to give them back?

What will the charge be? GTB?

The article gets better.

Employees at the plastic surgery center identified Pampellonne based on a photo line-up.

Photos of what?

(Sorry... I couldn't resist.)

Should we use this for a discussion starter about integrity? This might really keep the attention of junior high students. (I kid!) :)
