I'm sure many of you remember the popular song "Pink" by Aerosmith. In the
song Steven Tyler sings about how pink is his favorite color. He goes on and on
about the reasons why he loves the color pink. I think the first verse sums it up
the best, "Pink – it's my new obsession." I'd have to say, if I have an obsession, it
is not with a color, but a number. It began as a superstition in my early teenage
years when, wearing the jersey number 14 for the first time, I played my best
basketball game to date. It has just grown from there. I have a closet full of sports
jerseys, all proudly displaying the number 14. My alarm clock goes off at 14 past
the hour and even the sum of my street address equals 14.
In this issue of Saline County Lifestyles, we decided to focus the entire issue on
numbers, but not because of my love for the number 14. This edition is our 2nd
Anniversary Issue. We decided to start our third year by highlighting some of the
numbers that Saline County can boast about. Did you know that Saline County
is among the top 10 best places to find employment in the United States? Also,
the city of Bryant was selected as one of the most affordable suburbs in America
and is second in the state
for highest growth. Both Saline County school districts
have numbers to brag about. For example, the Benton
High School Cheerleaders
rank #1 in the Nation and the Bryant Jr. High Girls Basketball team is 46-0
during the
past two seasons.
I'm sure everyone has at least one number that they're particularly fond of,
whether it's your birthday, anniversary, sports hero, or your own sports number
like mine. Even if you're not fond of numbers, I hope you enjoy the interesting
figures in this Anniversary Issue of Saline County Lifestyles. We look forward
to bringing you another great year of our publication. Your town. Your life.
