Happy Thursday: Great Day

I start my day with breakfast, some webcomics and some inspiration. One of my favourite websites to hit first thing each morning is Great Day... a bit of motivation, inspiration and positivity to start my day off right.

Happy Thursday: Susan Boyle

OK... unless you've been on vacation or completely disconnected from the net, the media and news sources in general, you will undoubtedly have heard about Susan Boyle. She's a 47 year old, church-going singer from the remote backwaters of Scotland who wowed Simon Cowel and friends at Saturday night's airing of Britain's Got Talent. She may not look like a superstar, but she has the voice of someone who should be one.

At the time of writing, this youtube video had just over 12 million hits.

I get shivers whenever I watch this video. Susan: You go, Girl! You are an inspiration to us all!
