Mr. Cross™: The Cornfield Cowboy

About Me

1. Love is a colorless, potent gas: It's hard to find, but upon contact it can make you blind. 2. Friends don't grow on trees, though they always have branches and roots. 3. When people put their trust in money, their trust gets spent, too. 4. When it comes to God, some things still won't make sense but they'll always have a purpose. 5. Stupid is what stupid wants. 6. Since White Castle never had a king and Burger King never had a castle, I've learned to work with my own limitations. 7. Big girls are are some of the world's strongest women, inside and out. 8. You can't always get what you want, even if it's on sale. 9. A person that truly leads is a person who truly bleeds. 10. Attitudes aren't carved from our circumstances, but from our perceptions towards them.THIS PAGE WAS DESIGNED WITH THE CREATIVE GENIUS AND EXPERTISE OF MY LOVELY SISTER KIM (LUV YA).
