Hard to keep up...plus "The Mind of Maurice Clarett"

Time is going so fast that I feel like I'm gonna be turning 40 soon. I can't even keep up with this damn blog. It's been 2 weeks + since I have written anything productive. The sad thing is, I have so many thoughts every day about life in general that I could easily write multiple posts per day. Ahh well, I have more important things to do these days, like changing diapers, turning basement into a home gym, getting ready for March Madness (huge priority), and of course poker.

I recently been visiting the blog of Maurice Clarett. Yea yea, I know. He says he is writing from prison and that all his posts are strictly Maurice Claretts. I have been extremely impressed by his writings and I also feel that everyone deserves a second chance in life. He made some enormous mistakes in his life and it took prison to help him figure things out. He will always be remembered as a "waste of life" as far as football fans see it. However, he is still young enough to turn his life around and make good. You almost have to give praise to an individual who can learn from their previous mistakes in life and try to encourage others to not make the same mistakes. I hope he can come out rehabilitated and not return to his criminal ways that he practiced in the past. I definitely think he deserves another shot at society. I never thought I would say this, but I wish him well. I think he is a very bright and intelligent man who made some critical mistakes and is now paying for it.
Here is the link to his blog: http://mauriceclarett.wordpress.com/
