Life is all about second chances. And a second chance is what Ted Williams had after becoming an internet sensation. For those of you who have not seen nor heard the video that has been circulating worldwide, Ted is a man who lost a lot because of wrong choices made in the past. Choices that all of use are capable of doing and of bungling as well.
Ted is a homeless man who wanders the streets of Interstate 71. He is just like any other homeless guy who has unkempt hair, and a dirty and unshaven face. But all these has changed after his video circulated over the internet. Somebody interviewed him and uploaded the interview online. Ted has a sign that he carries with him saying that he has a “God given talent” and that is his voice.
He used to be a radio announcer and when success got into his head, he began experimenting on a lot of things including drugs and alcohol. When finally he realized that his choices were wrong, it was a little bit too late. He ended up with nothing and lost everything that he had.
But obviously God has other plans for him. Ted said that during the time that he was down and out it was then that he found God. Because of what he has been through, he has learned to appreciate every single day of his life and now he is back on track. The online video opened up a lot of doors for him and he is now on his way back to regaining what he has lost. All because his video was posted on the internet with with him carrying a cardboard box telling passing motorists about his “God-given talent”.

Comic book lovers all around the globe would be happy to know that Cartoon Network has animated the comic book series created by Phil Hester and Andy Kuhn – Firebreather. The story is about a boy who is half human and half dragon. He is a son of a human mother and a Dragon who is out to conquer the world.
