How's this for a home run?

Once in a while I like to wonder over to the website for The Responsibility Project, a wonderful undertaking by Liberty Mutual Insurance Company.

They're sponsoring a series of short independent films with rich moral lessons. The one below, directed by Ron Shelton ("Bull Durham") is inspiring, uplifting -- and true.

Take seven minutes and feel good about the world.

Indeed a home run Deacon Greg-- I also watched "The Party Guest" at the same site - which was not inspirational like this short film-- but rather a surprising " What to Do?" ethical quandary with several shades of grey and "am I jumping to conclusions" type questions.

A good series
