Inspirational Television

Filed November 5th, 2006 in Attitude | General

That headline is the epitome of an oxymoron, to me, anyway.

There’s one exception, though: Extreme Makeover—Home Edition. I watch television once every blue moon. Maybe every two. That’s the show I watch. Well, that and America’s Funniest Videos…
When you feel like something in your life is impossible, just watch Extreme Makeover. From hole in the ground to finished home in 7 days?

For years, I owned a paint contracting business, and a lot of our work was production painting of new construction. 7 days to build a house start-to-finish? No way. 30 days, at a minimum.

But impossible is just a state of mind, isn’t it?
