East Rutherford Falls In Wild Contest, TJCA Stops Rosman This Time

Where do I start? R-S Central felt heartbreak in week one and East Rutherford met the same fate in week two of high school football.

So, Austin Hollifield throws a beautiful 54-yard pass to a wide open Will Hollifield with three minutes left to go, pushing East Rutherford’s lead to 42-28 at North Gaston last week. Everybody in the stadium thought it was over, but as ESPN’s Lee Corso would say…“Not so fast my friend.”

Listen To Life
Dr. Joey Faucette
Listen To Life

Phoned a friend lately?

   You heard my story yesterday of how my car stalled and wouldn’t restart sitting at a traffic light on a very hot summer afternoon.  The problem was the alternator.  It quit, drained the battery, and left the car powerless.  Sort of like you and me when we try to be positive without a partner to help us.

   I grabbed my phone when I realized the car just wouldn’t start.  I looked in my database for the number of my friend who has a rollback truck.  I knew he would come and get me.

   I called.  One of his employees answered.  And pretty soon was on his way to pick me up.

   As I listen to my life in this situation, I realize how really difficult life can be without friends, and how really wonderful life is with them.  I didn’t even think for over 1 second about who to call.  I knew immediately.  I couldn’t rescue myself.  I needed a friend.

   Today, you may find yourself in need of help.  If not today, some day soon.  Who will you call?  Listen to your life and make a positive life…with your friends.

Outdoor Truths

Outdoor Truths
   For those of us who spend time outdoors, we get to see a lot of creatures and many of them would not exactly make it in a Field and Stream’s most beautiful animals list. I can actually remember the first time I shot a turkey and ran up to it. I was shocked by how ugly it really was. It really did have a mug that only a momma could love. And in my part of the country it’s not unusual to run into a possum scurrying about. They look like an over-grown rat that is slowly balding. The deeper south has their version that is covered with scales, called an armadillo. Or like we like to call them, moving speed bumps.
