Houston Chronicle - Photos of the Day

I don't think I am an overprotective mom when it comes to alot of things - but photos like this one below might make me reconsider! How would you like to be a pro football players mom!? I get in a bad mood and hobble around if I stub my toe or get a cramp in my calf. Can you imagine what these guys feel like all the time! I don't know if I feel more sorry for the guy about to fall on his head or the guy that is at the receiving end of this maneuver!

It is pictures like this one that make me so thankful for all that I have. Why was I so blessed to be born in America?

Venera Chebotaryova, 70, shows her destroyed apartment in Tskhinvali, the capital of the breakaway Georgian province of South Ossetia.

How is this little boy not falling backwards? I am pretty sure this backpack weighs more than him! :)

Why are some people such idiots? Maybe this guy wants to get bitten by a venomous snake, tackled by an alligator or infected with hepatitis. Apparently he hasn't watched the news reports about the water from Tropical Storm Kay flooding...
