She Did It The Old-Fashioned Way

Not sure why this is on my mind at the moment, but I thought it was pretty good at the time, so I figured I'd share it. I was actually present to hear this from the source:

After loading my bags and seeing my name written down the side of the suit box, the driver asked, "How did a nice lady like you end up with a name like that?"

I told him I had to earn it.

-- Wilma Mankiller
Former Principal Chief of The Cherokee Nation


I dunno. Maybe it's on my mind because of that guy who cut me off in traffic this morning....
