We used to watch out for one another

Does art imitate life or life imitate art? One of our children is in color guard and we are DCI fans. Over the past couple of years it has been interesting to see the shift in the types of shows these groups do. Some of the shows involve what appears to be misogynistic tendencies, violence… Continue reading We used to watch out for one another

Checks and Fraud

You thought I was going to write about politics again, didn’t you? Not tonight. I’m taking it a little more personal this evening. It has been a day, and not just because of the Trumpists and the Department of Justice, and not because of the New Hampshire primary. It is about a deposited fraudulent check… Continue reading Checks and Fraud

A Day in the Life of the 99%

This is a mash-up from the past few months. Time to get up for work. We roll out of our nice comfy bed to get ready.

This has happened not once, not twice, not thrice, but at least four times in recent history. They either lost… Continue reading MSM, Take a Lesson

Where Have All Our Leaders Gone?

Every morning I wake up with many questions running through my head. One of the questions is always about leadership. I wonder if I have been a good leader? Have I set a good example? Have I inspired anyone to do better recently? Have I encouraged others to take risks knowing I will be there… Continue reading Where Have All Our Leaders Gone?

This Isn’t Who We Are!

We often hear, “This isn’t who we are!” The truth is, this is who we are, who we are now, and who we have become. The good news is, we have a choice of whether this who we remain. Votes matter. Vote! And vote for Democrats unless this is how you want US to remain.… Continue reading This Isn’t Who We Are!
