Good show. Yesterday I stopped by a mailing business that oozed hope and heart. I was dropping off a few bags of shipping peanuts.

I had been doing business with them for 25 years, ever since the first time when I seethed with impatient anger before I looked around and realized that everyone, including the fella who ran the place, was joyfully working to the best of their ability. Shamefully I had come very close to expediting my transaction by tapping the clerk's keyboard which was within reach. Sadly that business folded but there are others in town.

So I had cleared a blind spot and began to patronize and promote businesses that employ or otherwise occupy those of us who are differently blessed.

I'm glad it's working out for you, Walt.

Thanks everyone. Yes we work faster but their positive vibes are something we can learn from them all day long. thanks Justfuya for slowing down and seeing their gifts. Others have discovered this as well as we are the top rated pizzeria in Reno, NV, after only 6 months open. We now have 10 people with disabilities with us. Last night an NY native sax player Rick Metz came in and got a pie. It was fun to talk music with him as we had many friends in common. His mentors were Bobby Keys and Sam Butara. Can't get much better than that! Walter

Thanks Jason. I feel blessed to have gone through a lot of trouble in my life and come to the final chapter in this wonderful arena. Walter
