Livin' The Life Of Riley



He stands 6'1" and a muscular 205 lbs.  He comes from a loving, single-parent home.  He's ridiculously talented in football, basketball & track.  USC offered him a football scholarship his sophomore year at high school.  Now a senior, he has football scholarship offers from UCLA, Florida, Notre Dame, Alabama, Michigan, Oklahoma, Tennessee & a host of other, major Div. 1 programs.  He recently took the SAT's.  His mother was more proud of his test scores than his football accolades; so he must be pretty damn smart, too.  My mama always used to say, "If we had our choice, we'd be young, good-looking & rich."  He's 17 yrs old, so there goes the "young."  Just viewing his photos -- there goes the "good-looking."  And from what I've read about the support from his mother and extended family -- there goes the "rich."  The wise man knows true wealth can only be measured by signs of love -- not by dollar $ign$!  I hope & pray kindness & compassion are also attributes he owns.  If so, I look forward to hearin' a lot more about the extraordinary, MR. DIETRICH RILEY.
