A personal message of encouragement to those men over 250 pounds running the 40 in the combine this weekend. Play this in the background for maximum effect.


HIGH FLIGHT

20120225_jel_ss1_002_medium

Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth

And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;

20120225_jel_ss1_050_medium

Sunward I’ve climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth

of sun-split clouds, — and done a hundred things

20120225_maw_ss1_276_medium

You have not dreamed of—wheeled and soared and swung

High in the sunlit silence. Hov’ring there,

20120227_jel_ss1_140_medium

I’ve chased the shouting wind along, and flung

My eager craft through footless halls of air....

20120225_maw_ss1_283_medium

Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue

I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace

Where never lark nor even eagle flew—

And, while with silent lifting mind I’ve trod

The high untrespassed sanctity of space,

20120225_maw_ss1_263_medium

Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

--John Gillespie Magee

Fly fast this weekend, big bros. Fly free. Fly with the power of chicken's wings. Hundreds and hundreds of double-fried, savory chicken's wings.
