Fun fact: Mark Henry's hometown took his name down off the "Welcome to..." sign after the Mae Young thing.

 

That whole Santa thing...still can't get over it....

 

When you try to get a job, nobody ever asks you what your GPAs were.

Life is short. Mix the playdough colors.

When you're in your early 20's is the time to explore the world and take risks in experimenting with your career. Enjoy this time - it will be the time when you can best enjoy self-centered desires.
