[August 10, 2025] A few months ago, while I was speaking with a group of high school-aged kids, we got on the topic of selfless service and duty.

[August 8, 2025] College football coach “Bear” Bryant once said that it’s not the will to win that matters, “it’s the will to prepare to win that matters.” Although a great football coach, Bryant would also have made an exceptional bronco riding coach because preparation is the key to staying on a wildly bucking horse and doing so… Read More »

[August 3, 2025] I recently came across Dr. Jordan Peterson talking with Chris Williamson. The idea of what he calls The Shallow Pond of Empathy is something that appeases people and does not cause them immediate discomfort. It is prioritized even if the net effect over the long term results in their suffering. According to Dr. Peterson, that’s… Read More »
[August 2, 2025] Big words for a big program to improve the health of our children in President Trump’s MAKE AMERICA FIT AGAIN strategy.

[August 1, 2025] My philosophy has always been to attend the funerals of those I know. And, it doesn’t matter the weather: rain or shine. Be there for the relatives, friends, and clergy.
