COT:
Carrie underwood recently sang America the Beautiful at the recent inauguration. What made it interesting and notable is that the accompanying music did not work. Technical difficulties. Instead of complaining or quitting, she offered to sing it without the music and asked the audience to sing it with her. It turned out to be a very memorable rendition.

Sometimes life throws you for a loop despite all your preparation, practice and expectation. The Q shared his reflections on how 2024 threw his family for a loop in 2024.

When life brings up “technical difficulties” and you don’t know the way forward, there will be other people there with you to sing whatever song you need to sing. Ask them. Sometimes those people are the men of F3.

COT: YHC described the David Letterman show with Warren Zevon’s last performance. Warren previously publicly disclosed his terminal cancer diagnosis. When asked by Dave asked if he had gained any insight Warren’s response was to enjoy the little things “enjoy every sandwich.” Understandably, we focus on the big life events (big vacations, graduations, etc.), but the vast majority of life is comprised of the day to day. Enjoy every sandwich seems like good advice to YHC.
