I absolutely love this movie! The scene in the homeless shelter with his son and the bathroom scene when he covered his son's ears brought me to tears. Very touching story and a testiment to the human spirit. Thanks for sharing this.
A creative person has to create. It doesn't really matter what you create. If such a dancer wanted to go out and build the cactus gardens where he could, in Mexico, let him do that, but something that is creative has to go on. ~ Katherine Dunham (Katherine Dunham Interview)

BFT Food For Thought:
This week's thoughts come from a few responses on the BFT Discussion Board on the BFT Fan Page. I have noticed when people bring God into a situation, others get really offended. BFT is about providing your opinion on a subject. Everyone has their own truths. Everyone has their principles that they live by. I also know that your truth or principle may not be someone else's truth or principle. All I ask that you respect that person's opinion or comment. You don't have to agree but it is nice to be respected.
BFT Black History Fact
Frederick McKinley Jones (1893 - 1961) invented the first practical and automatic refrigeration unit for trucks, which eliminated the problem of food spoilage over long hauls, thus making fresh produce available over wide areas. Subsequently, the unit was adapted to a variety of other carriers, including ships and railway cars.
