Show Category: Life/Misc
Show Description: This week, football star Terrell Owens attempted to commit suicide. While T.O. may be known for his flamboyancy, his actions Wednesday morning would lead one to believe he is seriously unhappy with his life. Unfortunately, many Americans feel this way too, so we figured it is time to have a frank and honest conversation about suicide.

Quotes to Live By
"We are prone to judge success by the index of our salaries or the size of our automobile rather than by the quality of our service and relationship to mankind."
-Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

E-mail From Listeners
"I'm writing this email to you from the bottom of my heart. I pray, and hope, that you will take the time to read my plea...'Eric Rudolph' is not the true representative of Christianity, nor are the 9/11 hijackers true representatives of Islam. May God (aka Allah) bless you and inspire you to be a peacemaker amongst humanity."
-Akbar
