There is a story about a Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) student who spent one entire summer walking 2 miles to the Harvard football stadium and 2 miles back each day. He wore a black and white striped shirt and when he reached the stadium he acted still more strangely. The young man walked up and down the field for about fifteen minutes throwing birdseed all over the place while blowing a whistle.

What was he doing? The answer!

Harvard and MIT are serious rivals. That guy from MIT was setting a booby trap for the Harvard Crimson Football Team. At the first home game at Harvard Field the officials began the game by assembling on the field and blowing a whistle. Can you guess what happened next?

A thousand birds decended upon the field stopping the game.

Our daily habits sow future events. Are you praying for crop failure?
