Hey Guys

This is off topic but I just had to share this with my Lightning freinds.
This is a story about what true Christmas spirit is all about.

Merry christmas

My friend, "that" is what Christmas is all about. I hope God has blessed you and your family, and you have a very Merry Christmas...

 

that was an excellent story, thanks.

and MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

 

That is a great story. John Force has always been an idol to me. I read somewhere that for the first large portion of his career, he failed to win a single race... Yet, he kept on trying. Now to see hes one of the most sucessful Drag Racers, if not the most Sucessful in the NHRA. Lesson learned... if you try hard enough for something, it will come. Im glad to see such a touching story, at such a great time of year. MERRY X-MAS TO ALL!

Yep John tells a good story........do you think he meant 1946 Buick tho ???

 

That is what Christmas is all about.
Fortunatly "or maybe Unfortunatly" our children will never know how SPECIAL "ONE GIFT" could be.

 

Great story. I always knew Force came from a poor family, but I never knew it was that poor.

 

So true.

And if Christmas didn't get swallowed up by the moneygobblers more people would realize (and experience) this.

Merry Christmas all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Yeah...it would have been a '46 Buick unless they had enough money to buy a new car but not food.
