Sarah Hawley

POMEROY — Following
a public viewing of two Rutland Township roads and a

the Meigs County Commissioners approved the vacation of both roads.
A public viewing of a portion of Parkinson Road and
Fetty Road were held on
Thursday morning with nine
people attending.
Upon the recommendation
of County Engineer Eugene

Triplett, and with no objections, the commissioners approved the vacation of roads
as requested by the Rutland
Township Trustees on March
5.
Parkinson Road, Township
Road 41, will be vacated beginning at the junction with
the west Rutland Township
line to a point approximately
.151 mile west of the junction of Township Road 41
and County Road 12 (the
west fence line of Wright
Cemetery). The approximate
distance vacated is .86 mile.

Fetty Road, Township
Road 446, will be vacated
beginning at the junction of
Township Road 41 and going .10 mile to a dead end.
In other business, bids

The bids were referred to

the grants office for review.
The commissioners will
be accepting applications
for an appointment to the
Gallia-Jackson-Meigs Board
of Alcohol, Drug Addiction
and Mental Health. One
position will be filled due
to Gerald Powell’s term expiring on June 30. Powell

to his position on the board.
Denise Alkire of the
Meigs County Grants Office
presented a resolution the
commissioners along with

MASON — “Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.”
Romans 12:13 is perhaps one of the
many verses that helped inspire the recent
work of the members of the Mason United
Methodist Church. Several members have
been hard at work, gathering donations
and various other items in order to open
up a thrift store called the Zerkle House
of Hope.
What sets this particular store apart
from other thrift stores is that it’s located
in an old, historic house of former church
members. Sisters Jennifer Zerkle-Hart and
Claudia Zerkle-Thomas grew up in the
house and are very glad to see it put to
good use. Hart and Thomas didn’t know
the exact date the house was built, but
many church members said it was the oldest building in Mason that is currently still

Those who are currently
on the program do not need
to reapply.

RIO GRANDE — Nursing is not for the faint of

who can survive a stint in
gynecology, the psych ward

one graduate.
The University of Rio

Nursing recently held its
pinning ceremony to recognize those graduating in the
Class of 2012.
Associate Degree Nursing Program Graduate William Kendall Wyatt of Gallipolis spoke on behalf of
his class and spoke he did.
He began his speech with
“Dear Diary” and relayed

“Dear Diary,” Wyatt said.
“Today is my first day of
nursing school. I sat in
the second to last row not
knowing what I had gotten
myself into. I felt like every
other sentence from the instructor was ‘If you don’t
do this, you will fail and be
removed from the program.’
I felt overwhelmed for the
first time in my life.”

Tourism industry growing
Staff report

mdsnews@mydailysentinel.com

COLUMBUS — The Ohio Office
of Tourism announced Thursday that
Ohio’s tourism economy grew 6.5
percent in 2011 and generated $40 billion in total sales, up from $38 billion
in 2010, according to research conducted on behalf of the Ohio Office of
Tourism.
Tourism last year generated $2.7
billion in taxes for Ohio - $1.6 billion in state taxes and $1.1 billion
in local taxes. This growth in sales

helped increase tourism employment
to 443,000 full-time equivalent (FTE)
jobs with an associated income of
$10.6 billion, an increase of 4,000 jobs
over 2010.
“About 1 in every 11.5 jobs or 8.7
percent of Ohio’s jobs in 2011 were
sustained by Ohio’s tourism industry,”
said Amir Eylon, State Tourism Director. “Tourism is a resilient industry
with the ability to quickly add new
jobs to meet increased demand, which
has put it at the forefront of economic
recovery.”
Total visitation to and within Ohio

grew to more than 180 million visits
in 2011, up from an estimated 179 million visits in 2010.
“These results reinforce the strength
of Ohio’s tourism industry as an economic driver for our state,” said Christiane Schmenk, Director of the Ohio
Department of Development. “We are
pleased that travelers continue to take
advantage of our state’s resources and
experience Ohio.”
More than 36 million visitors who
traveled to Ohio in 2011 stayed overnight, an increase of 5 percent from
2010.

USDA housing purchase help available
Staff report

mdsnews@mydailysentinel.com

MARIETTA – Do you
have limited income? You
may think you could never
own your own home, but
your dream can become a
reality with a U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural
Development 502 loan.
“We can make home
ownership affordable and
often even less expensive
than renting,” said Rural
Development Area Director
Michael Rutherford. “The
obstacles of homeownership are overcome by not
requiring a down payment
or minimum income.
Only minimal closing fees
are required and those can
be gifted or financed. The

ability to use loan funds to
improve the condition of the
property offers additional
flexibility to the borrower.
Finally, 502 home mortgages are subsidized to lower
the monthly mortgage payment, which means you will
have more money in your
pocket each month.”
These no-down payment
loans can be used to purchase existing homes or to
build new homes that meet
a
federally-determined
definition of “modest.” The
program permits loans for
up to 100 percent of the
home’s appraised value.
The loan term is 33 years
at a fixed interest rate: currently 3.25 percent. Subsidy
amounts vary based on the

applicant’s household income. To qualify for a loan,
the house must be located
in a census-defined eligible
rural area.
“You will not have to
guess what your payment
will be because the interest
rate on a Rural Development
loan is fixed for the life of
the loan,” said Rutherford.
“For those who qualify, the
principal portion of the payment can be reduced to as
low as one percent, based
on the level of household
income. It’s a tremendous
relief to know that the interest rate can never exceed
the fixed rate.”
Applicants must have a
minimum credit score of
640, have a stable source

of income and be able to
meet repayment guidelines,
along with other eligibility
criteria. Income limits vary
according to family size
and county of residence. Income limits for a household
of four for most counties is
$43,050.

Direct Loan program, call

The Daily Sentinel

The basic premise of sin
It doesn’t seem so long ago
that “JUST SAY NO!” was
the recommended response
our younger folk were advised to respond with when
tempted to use drugs. At
about the same time, Nike,
the company known for its
athletic shoes, was frontand-center with the slogan,
“JUST DO IT!”
I sincerely doubt the latter expression was meant
to be employed in the same
sense as the first one, since
they were altogether contradictory in nature. Besides, it
stands to reason that those
who said “No” to drugs and
other such nasty stuff would
later be around as potential
customers for Nike footwear.
Think: “supply and demand.” It’s one thing to make
and market a certain product;
it’s another for there to be a
substantial demand for that
product. Nobody stays in
business who makes something few others want and
are willing to spend their
money on!
For a fact, however, Nike’s
slogan appealed to the adventurous and risk-takers, and
like-wise was employed to
justify the sorts of behavior
the more conservative and
staid among us avoided and,
perhaps, denounced.
Even today, the concept
lingers on. Those who lack
ethical and moral restraints
tend to think in terms of “just
doing” whatever it might be
that appeals to their mind as
a worthwhile — read: selfserving or self-glorifying —
activity, and then acting upon
those same thoughts.
Such is the nature of sin.
Re-stating something I said
in my last article, it goes
against our grain as humans
to incriminate ourselves,
and insofar as it is possible
we’ll deliberately avoid using terminology that is even
remotely negative to describe
ourselves.
Don’t believe me? How
else are we to explain the

Thomas Johnson
Pastor

literal denial by so many others of the existence of hell as
a possible end point of their
life, or of an all-powerful, allknowing God?!?
To be sure, it is nothing
more than a superficial and
self-serving act on their part,
a worthless exercise in philosophy and rhetoric. You and I
may know better, but we’re
not driving these people;
their pride is. If and when
there is no God, neither is
there One to judge them.
Voila! The possibilities
now acquire an almost infinite dimension. Similarly,
those who regard themselves
as their own gods make liberal use of their imaginations
and will.
This is, again, the basic
premise of sin: whatever
your thing is, “Do It!” I can
just hear the serpent, saying
to Adam and Eve … “Forget
what God said. He didn’t really mean ‘No.’ What you see
looks good, tastes good, and
is good for you; so eat it, already! Go ahead; Do It!”
Satan continues to say
much the same thing to people, today. “If it feels good, do
it.” (Okay, I resurrected that
one from the late ‘60’s, but
the “do it” concept still applies.)
Given our contemporary
culture, and the ubiquitous
opportunities available to all
of us to indulge virtually any

desire we might have and
behave accordingly, saying
“No” has never been more
difficult — for youth or
adults, for non-Christians
and Christians alike.
To quote the late Jackie
Gleason — “How sweet it
is!” Or might be, IF ONLY
we could always have what
we want, when and how we
want it. Maybe then, life
would be “sweet.”
Do you think? It occurs
to me such thinking is both
delusional and sinful. Now,
consider this proposition:
… “What the mind can conceive, and the heart believe,
you can achieve!”
Admittedly, there is at least
a kernel of truth in this saying, but make no mistake:
it can go either way; it will
inspire some for good, others for wrongdoing. Are we
not daily confronted with
accounts of people who have
exploited others for their
own selfish and ill-begotten
gains?!?
Lacking scruples, despising God, and being completely insensitive to their victims,
there are those we encounter
who hurt others. (Ironic,
perhaps, but true nevertheless: God’s grace is available
to these who do evil, in equal
measure as it is available to
us.) “Just Do It!” simply rejuvenated an idea in play since
Adam and Eve started the
ball rolling in the Garden of
Eden.
The Bible tells us there
has NEVER been anyone so
good they did not sin (Eccl.
7:20; Rom. 3:23). It also tells
us heaven, hell, and God are
spiritual entities we can only
grasp by faith, and that those
who deny God are “fools.”
Our Mommas didn’t raise
no fools, so let’s live right
by fearing God and keeping
His commandments (Eccl.
12:13).

pastor of Trinity Congregational Church in Pomeroy.)

gas, which indicated he had
been running the truck on
mere fumes. Back to Huntington I went.
I have to admit that when
I was a teenager I often
drove that ’58 Plymouth
of mine on gasoline fumes
because I did not want to
spend what money I had,
although gas prices back
then in Wardensville were
42 cents a gallon.
However, I had been chiding my family for some to
keep adequate quantities of
gas in our vehicles. Nearempty fuel tanks are hard
on fuel pumps because of
accumulated sediments at
the bottom of the tank. As
it turned out, the fuel pump
on the Ford had indeed
gone bad.

Ron Branch
Pastor

At supper last Friday,
I dropped the hammer. I
mandated that when either
of them got in either of our
vehicles and the gas gauge
indicated only three-eighths
of a tank, they are expected
to consider it mostly empty
and in due course drive immediately to a gas station
and make the levels above
a half-a-tank. They are required to make it more full
than empty.
The comparative spiritual truth is important to
consider. When it comes to
considering our “spiritual”
tanks, it should be our purpose to at the least keep it
more full than empty.
Clearly, the Word of God
indicates that we should
strive to be full in our Christian identification with
Jesus Christ. Scripture prevails upon us to be full of
light and full of mercy. We
should be full of grace, and
full of truth. Good works
and goodness are objectives
for fullness. The supreme
exhortation is to be full of
the Holy Spirit. The Bible

says to be full, and it is certain we can on the bases of
needful spiritual practices.
But, here is the rub. Just
like a gas tank never stays
full when the vehicle is in
use, neither does our spiritual tank remain full as we
step through life. Though
being spiritually full on any
given day, difficulties in life
nonetheless consume our
spiritual fuel. Dealing with
temptation to sin consumes
our spiritual fuel. Trials and
tribulations consume our
spiritual fuel.
Consider Prophet Elijah
as an example. He was full
on Mt. Carmel, but near
empty on Mt. Horeb. Jonah
was full while preaching revival in Ninevah, but near
empty under the gourd.
Peter was full in the upper room, but near empty
around the fire. Paul was
full when “caught up in
paradise,” but near empty
in Asia.
It is so easy to drop from
being mostly full to being
nearly empty. We should
never allow our spiritual
tank to approach empty.
Those certain sediments of
the soul can easily disrupt
the workings of spiritual
vitality.
In the meantime, thanks
so much to Masononians
and Marshall University
students, Katie and Briana, who were so kind to
Micaiah and me while we
waited for the tow truck to
arrive.
(Rev. Ronald Branch
is pastor at Faith Baptist
Church in Mason, W.Va.)

one hit in the triumph while
establishing a 15-0 advantage after an inning and a
half of play.
The Red Devils (3-21)
countered with three runs
over the next two innings
to cut their deficit down to
a dozen through three complete, but never came closer
the rest of the way.
PPHS — which claimed
an 18-6 overall advantage

Lady Raiders, 8-4

ROCKSPRINGS, Ohio —
A five-run explosion in the
bottom of the fourth ultimately made the difference
for the Meigs softball team
Wednesday night during an
8-4 triumph over visiting
River Valley in a Division III
sectional semifinal matchup
in Meigs County.
The sixth-seeded Lady
Marauders (15-6) led wireto-wire in the contest, as the
hosts stormed out to a 3-0
advantage after three full
innings of play. The 11thseeded Lady Raiders (6-18)
retaliated with two scores
in the top of the fourth to
pull within a run at 3-2, but
MHS followed with its major charge of the night —
which led to an 8-2 cushion
through four complete.
RVHS — which was outhit by a 9-6 overall margin
— mustered two runs in
the fifth to cut the deficit in
half at 8-4, but never came
closer the rest of the way.
Meigs retired the guests
in order over the final two
frames to wrap up the fourrun decision.
With the triumph, the
Lady Marauders advance

to the Division III sectional
final and will travel to thirdseeded Wheelersburg after
the Lady Pirates earned a
5-0 win over NelsonvilleYork in a sectional semifinal Wednesday night. The
sectional final is scheduled
to be played Friday at 5
p.m., but the date may be
changed to Saturday morning due to Wheelersburg’s
prom on Friday night.
Meigs — which will be
playing in its fourth straight
sectional final contest —
jumped out to a 2-0 advantage after one inning of play.
Tess Phelps delivered a twoout single and Harley Fox
reached safely on an error,
then Emalee Glass followed
with a two-RBI double for
an early edge.
MHS added to its lead in
the bottom of the third, as
Fox led the frame off with
a single and later scored on
a River Valley error — giving the hosts a 3-0 cushion
through three complete.
The Lady Raiders finally
cracked the scoreboard in
the top of the fourth after
Ashley Cheesebrew walked
and Ciara Layne doubled,
then Katie Mares doubled

six errors in the contest —
was the home team on the
scoreboard, as the game
was moved from RHS due
to soggy field conditions.
Point led off the game by
scoring four times in the
first, then sent 17 batters to
the plate in the second canto — which resulted in 11
runs on eight hits, six walks
and two errors. The aftermath left the guests clinging to a 15-run advantage.
The Red Devils scored
twice in the second and
added another run in the
bottom of the third to pull
within 15-3, but Point

Pleasant countered with
four runs in the top of the
fourth to forge ahead for a
19-3 cushion. RHS tacked
on a run in the bottom of
the fourth to cut the deficit
back down to 15, but Point
added a pair of insurance
scores in the fifth to round
out the score at 21-4.
Austen Toler was the
winning pitcher of record,
allowing three earned runs,
three hits and one walk
over three innings while
striking out five. Brandon
Toler threw two innings of
relief, surrendering one run
and three hits while fanning

five. Devan Crews took the
loss for RHS after allowing
15 runs (12 earned), nine
hits and five walks over 1.2
innings of work while striking out one.
Brandon Toler paced the
Big Blacks with three hits,
followed by Levi Russell,
Jason Stouffer and Eric
Roberts with two safeties
apiece. Alex Somerville,
Trevor Porter, Austen Toler,
Josh Hudson, Evan Potter,
Steven Porter, Alex Potter,
Tylun Campbell and Jacob
Gardner all added a hit each
to the winning cause.
Russell, Roberts, Porter

and Brandon Toler all drove
in three runs apiece, while
Hudson and Brandon Toler
each scored three times.
PPHS also left a dozen runners stranded on the bases.
Heath Burgess and Jeremy Lawrence paced Ravenswood with two hits apiece.
Crews also drove in two
RBIs to lead the hosts.
Point Pleasant and Ravenswood will meet again
Thursday at 5:30 p.m. in
Jackson County. A win secures a regional date for the
Big Blacks, and a loss would
force a decisive Game 3 on
Friday.

The Cleveland Browns
don’t intend to give him the
starting job.
At least not yet.
Coach Pat Shurmur made
it clear again during a conference call Thursday in advance of the team’s rookie
minicamp that Weeden will
have to beat out Colt McCoy
and Seneca Wallace to be the
team’s starting QB next season.
“We don’t give anybody
anything,” Shurmur said.
“They have got to earn it in
our eyes.”
Weeden, the Oklahoma
State quarterback selected
No. 22 overall by the Browns,
and Alabama running back
Trent Richardson, who was
taken third, will be among
37 players the Browns will
have at their three-day camp
in Berea, Ohio. Shurmur
wasn’t able to hold a rookie
camp last season because of
the NFL lockout and is looking forward for the chance to
coach young players.
“I am looking to see guys

Shurmur said Richardson
will take part in all the onfield activities and won’t be
slowed by the minor knee
surgery he had after helping
the Crimson Tide win the national championship.
Shurmur said he’s looking
forward to seeing Weeden
“executing as a quarterback”
and will be able to see him

State teammate Josh Cooper,
a wide receiver and one of 15
undrafted free agents signed
by the Browns on Wednesday. Shurmur described
Cooper as being similar to
Danny Amendola, whom he
coached in St. Louis.
The Browns’ rookies underwent physicals and an
orientation program on
Thursday.
Meanwhile, the agents
for third-round pick John
Hughes, a defensive tackle
from Cincinnati, and fourthround pick James-Michael
Johnson, a linebacker from
Nevada, said on Twitter that
their clients have signed
deals with the Browns.
A team spokesman said
the deals were not completed.

straight sectional title

TUPPERS PLAINS, Ohio
— For the eighth time in
as many seasons, the Eastern baseball team is headed
to the district tournament
following a 14-4 triumph
over visiting Waterford in
a Division IV sectional final
matchup in Meigs County.
The third-seeded Eagles
(15-8) fell behind 2-0 after
two innings of play, but the
hosts answered the bell in
the bottom of the third by
scoring four times for a 4-2
advantage. The sixth-seeded Wildcats (3-18) retaliated with two runs in the top
of the fourth to pull even
after four complete, but that
was as close as the guests
would get.
EHS sent 10 batters to
the plate in the fifth, which
resulted in five runs on two
hits, four walks and one error — giving the Eagles a
9-4 cushion after five complete. Eastern sent another
eight hitters to the plate
in the bottom of the sixth,
which resulted in another
five runs that led to a mercy-rule decision.
Leading 12-4 with two
outs and two on in the bottom of the sixth, Nick Brannon delivered a two-RBI
single that plated Jacob
Parker and Tim Elam to
wrap up the triumph.

the contest — compared to
only two walks for Waterford hitters.
Josh Shook was the winning pitcher of record, allowing four runs, five hits
and two walks over five

frames while striking out
five. Tyler Schaad took the
loss for WHS after surrendering six runs, three hits
and three walks over fourplus innings while striking

CONCEPTIS SUDOKU
by Dave Green

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, May
11, 2012:
This year you sometimes feel as if
you are jumping from one confusing
situation to another. Learn to clarify
information more often and remember
to ask about, reiterate and confirm
details. Your communication skills
could grow by leaps and bounds as
a result. An element of surprise often
occurs, but in a most unusual manner.
If you are single, you could meet several very exciting people, one after the
other. You might wish for more stability
in your relationships or budding love
ties. Don’t fight change, nor judge it.
If you are attached, as a couple you
could often find yourselves doing the
most unexpected things and loving it.
Let it happen. AQUARIUS is a great
friend and supporter.
The Stars Show the Kind of Day
You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive;
3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
HHHHH Meetings determine much
of your plans. Extra events might be
a part of the continuum, as you try to
figure out which way to go. Flush out
a misunderstanding at its embryonic
stage. Do not let a situation develop
into more. Tonight: Start the weekend
right.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
HHH Pressure builds today —
more than it has most of the week.
You suddenly have a panoramic view
of how much you need to do, and
exactly how to proceed. A meeting or
a friend tosses a boomerang into your
plans. Tonight: In the limelight.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
HHHHH Keep reaching out for
someone who is close to you emotionally but perhaps physically distant.
Expect the unexpected in your life,
especially if the activity involves others.
Tonight: Split as fast as you can.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
HHHH Deal with others directly.
Relate on an individual level, and get
as much done as possible. You’ll gain
a certain sense of completion that you
have not experienced in a long time.
Do not hesitate to ask questions in
situations where you are left hanging
or are confused. Tonight: With great
company.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
HHHH Others demand to have a
greater say. You might enjoy what is
going on, if you can relax and stay in a
noncompetitive role. A close friend or
loved one once more demonstrates his
or her unpredictability. Let this person

know what needs to happen. Tonight:
Go with the most appealing suggestion.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
HHH As others start their weekends, it becomes apparent that you
wind up holding the bag. Ask for some
support or help before it is too late and
you decide to pitch in and get extra
work dumped on you. Tonight: All
smiles.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
HHHHH It could be difficult for you
to alter your mood. Your jovial, humorous personality announces that this
is a very good day. You are ready for
the weekend. Do not allow a misunderstanding to interfere. Tonight: Only
where the action is.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
HHHH Many of you might consider calling it an early day at work.
Others, who might be retired or not
working, could find it difficult to leave
their immediate environment. Let go of
pre-existing ideas, and opt for a more
experimental suggestion. Tonight:
Enjoy the moment.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
HHHHH You seem to choose the
right words to patch up a misunderstanding. Others naturally gravitate
toward you when you express your
happiness. Unexpected surprises
could be heading your way. Tonight:
Time for fun.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
HHHH You might want to rethink
a decision that involves a key person
in your life. This person has a way of
spending your money. Practice saying
“no” more often. Do not push your luck
with a boss or higher-up. Tonight: Go
off and paint the town red.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
HHHHH You sense what could
come down the path. With your openness, you will attract much more of
what you want. Let go of rigidity, even
with a difficult family member who acts
like a stick in the mud. Tonight: The
world does revolve around you, at
least for now.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
HHH Make it OK to cocoon and
maybe even pout a bit. How you
handle a personal issue could change
radically because of you taking your
time. Realize that sometimes you
take on too much and cause yourself
a problem. Tonight: Shh. Keep your
plans secret.

The Geathers: 2 generations of NFL, college stars
HEMINGWAY, S.C. (AP)
— There has been plenty of
NFL talent to come out of
the state of South Carolina
— many from the Geathers
family tree.
Brothers Jumpy and
Robert Sr. are the patriarchs of a group that has

produced six pro football
players with more on the

Human Forklift,” spent 13
seasons as an NFL defensive lineman and helped
Washington win the Super
Bowl in 1992. Robert Sr.
played six years with the

Buffalo Bills.
Robert’s sons, Robert Jr.
and Clifton, are currently
on NFL rosters. A third
son, Kwame, is a rising
junior defensive lineman
at Georgia. Jumpy’s sons

Robert Sr. remembers a

stopping by his house to
talk about Robert Jr., then
Clifton and finally Kwame.
Robert Sr. remembers with
a laugh how he was cooking shrimp for the Georgia coaches “while other

Robert Sr.’s boys can’t
escape a playful rivalry
with the family business.
Robert Sr. recalls Clifton
telling his older brother
Robert Jr. that’s it was

Kwame chimed in right
after that it was time for
both his older brothers to
make way for the young
defensive end.
“Out with the old and
in with the new,” Kwame
said, chuckling.
Kwame is a 6-foot-6,
329-pound nose tackle
who was praised by Bulldogs coach Mark Richt for
his work during Georgia’s
spring ball. Should Kwame
catch the eye of pro scouts,
it could give Robert Sr., a
third son in the NFL. “I
don’t know if anyone else
can say that,” he said.
Kwame’s not the only
Geathers excelling at college football. Cousin Clayton Geathers Jr. started 12
games for UCF last fall,
finishing with 40 tackles
and six passes broken up.
“I just want to work hard
and see where it takes me,”
Clayton Jr. said.
That’s usually the approach in the Geathers
family.
“You’ve got a destiny,”
Jumpy said. If you come
from a family of top carpenters, “you’ll be a top carpenter. If you’re in sports,
you learn sports and you
want your kids to do the
best,” Jumpy continued.
“That’s only human.”
