The Right Thing To Say

Here's something I thought would just be a regular corporate PR program. It may still be that, but it contains a quote that has already made my day.

STORY

Basically, Energizer (the battery maker) is known for their Bunny who keeps on going, demonstrating the power of their batteries. They've now created an Energizer "Hall of Fame" that recognizes people who keep going. Initial inductees include Cal Ripkin, Jr., who set the record for consecutive baseball games at 2,632. Also inducted is John O'Leary, who burned 98% of his body as a kid playing with gasoline, but now is husband and father and philanthropist.

"I'm honored to be inducted alongside someone like John O'Leary," said Ripken.

This is what I hoped the nationally famous baseball star would say on such an occasion
