Manly Minute: 5 Rules of Hard Work
The thing about trying to nail down a definition of hard work is that, as I mentioned, most of us already believe we are hard workers. We went to college. We got good grades. We got jobs. We did exactly what our fathers and high school guidance counselors told us to do. We get out of bed, we go to work, we pay our bills, we keep ourselves and our homes neat and tidy, and we go to bed each night feeling somewhat exhausted. But the problem with that conception of hard work is that it's not what all those successful people meant when they gave you the advice "work hard and you can achieve anything." Most of what we do on a day-to-day basis is simply what we have to do to survive. Your job, your chores, your obligations to your family and the favors to your friends -- that's not hard work. That's regular work. That's your routine -- the stuff that you and every other human being do every single day. Read more

Fur Fur is the best! Very curious and friendly, he has become a volunteer favorite. He loves to climb all over you, hang out in your pockets and just be with you. He would make a wonderful pet for anyone who likes rats. Rats are great pets for kids!
Rats are highly intelligent. They love to play with toys such as ping pong balls and toilet paper rolls. They are clean, always grooming themselves. Rats are affectionate, loyal and inquisitive.
