The times after 9/11 were ones that left our country in a brand new world. While Pearl Harbor was the wake up call for our country in World War II we as Americans had never experienced an actual attack on the main land. I can remember feeling that day when the different sites were being...

I have been watching the IRS hearings on CSPAN and if you have never been to this channel it is a direct video of what is going on in the Senate or House. They have no filter of the news to blur what is going on so you may pretty much make up your own mind on what you think of what is going...

The problems of the world are many and what is going on in the Middle East is both scary and exciting at the same time. Scary because we do not know what is going to happen as a result of the revolutions going on all over and exciting that it may turn out for the good of these people that...

Denial of the fact that we are experiencing climate change in our country is unthinkable. We have had the most severe storms coming through since Katrina hit the gulf. A tornado becomes a hurricane when it is over water. A tornado is caused by the mixing of cool air and warm...

There is not a more helpless feeling then when a loved one is in pain and there is nothing you can do about it. You can try to comfort them but that does not ease the pain that they suffer from. With all the advances in medicine that have been made still the best they can do is give you...

Sportsmanship is a value learned by playing sports in a fair way with out being boastful at a win or getting mad at a loss. It is a concept that would seem to be somewhat lost at times to days gone by. While I enjoy a great win by my football team there is the flip side to that win in that...

I have a bit to say today about the insurance industry. Some forms of insurance are fine for what they do but health insurance is not working for our country. If it were what it originally intended that they make a living from selling you this insurance and taking the risk that you are...

The telling of a lie causes damage. This damage may not be noticed right away and may not be understood as coming from the lies. This to me is true in our lives as well as in the public realm. In our lives when a lie is told it can be noticed in the loss of a family life and a...

In your life you can remember where you were at certain times in it that had great meaning. The day that JFK was shot and killed I was in school at Walt Whitman Elementary and the Principal came over the loud speaker and told us that he had died. His life had been cut short by a...

I am rightfully concerned about our future in our country due to a lack of competition. We allow for competition in sports and have rules that need to be followed to make things fair to everyone. There are ref’s that oversee things to be the on field judges of the rules that...
