It’s no shock that East Rutherford (4-1) is finding early success on the diamond. The only blip so far was a game in which they were outlasted by Cherryville. Most are feeling that Crest and Burns are the teams to beat in SMAC this year, but the Cavs have already picked up a statement win on the road against 9-4 to end last week. Two big games appear sooner than later as they will host Crest on March 25 and visit R-S Central on March 27.

It doesn’t take too many warm days in a row and one begins thinking spring. And with the recent time change, I’m all in! It’s official for me. Let the world begin again – afresh, anew, and with gobs of possibilities of which all include the outdoors.
I think the toilsome, long winter only magnified my excitement about the upcoming warm days. Stories of limits of crappie have stirred my restlessness as well. My mind is running wild. I have a substantial list of things I need to do around the house. Spring cleaning has become spring restoration. I am also eager to jump on a tractor and prepare fields and to even plow up my little garden.

Do you learn from others?
John received a parrot as a gift. This parrot had a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. John tried and tried to change the bird's attitude by doing anything he could think of to "clean up" the bird's vocabulary. Finally, John was fed up and yelled at the parrot. The parrot yelled back. So John grabbed the bird and put him in the freezer.
For a few minutes the parrot squawked and kicked and screamed. Then there was total quiet. The bird didn’t even peep for over a minute. John got worried and quickly opened the freezer door. The parrot calmly stepped out onto John's outstretched arms and said, "I believe I may have offended you with my rude language and actions. I'm sincerely remorseful for my inappropriate transgressions and I fully intend to do everything I can to correct my rude and unforgivable behavior."
Then the parrot said, "May I ask what the turkey did?"
Do you need to change some way you act? Look around you and learn from others why you should change as you live positive.
