Air travel Quote by Jarod Kintz
““I put two bricks side by side in the grass and called it a race. Neither one moved so I renamed it a tie. It’s too bad too, because the winner would have won a new home, with air travel tossed in, a view, a window, and a chance to help start the process of repairing a broken home. ””
