Heroes:

M y son Jacob. He is five years old and he deals with a form of autism called Pervasive Development Disorder. To see him so determined to do his best everyday and to accomplish his goals is so amazing to me. To see the pure human ingenuity and cunning will that he does possess. Sometimes I find myself speechless on a daily basis.

And let us not forget Pat Tillman. The one of a very few people who would ever contemplate walking away from a multi-million dollar NFL contract to serve his country and sacrifice his life at the alter of freedom. Screw G.I. Joe, Pat Tillman is the real American Hero!
