[March 19, 2021] In yesterday’s article, I wrote about a brewing but hidden crisis in America. This crisis is the flabby, cowardly, cynical American men who are failing at their societal roles. While many deny the problem, it is self-evident that men and young boys are no longer preparing for responsible manhood. What can we do about the… Read More »
[March 18, 2021] In America, there is a crisis brewing, and it is not about immigration, racism/sexism, or social injustice. This crisis has to do with the American male. On average, he is flabby, cowardly, cynical, effete, and dumb; and women see men as wretchedly pathetic. It is no wonder so many women are avoiding marriage. A solution… Read More »
[February 24, 2021] A month ago, my wife called on me to watch this “new guy” talking on YouTube. I laughed hysterically, only after two minutes (a rare behavior, honestly I was). This guy Doug TenNapel is a conservative who places his political commentary in video format on several social media platforms. You gotta see this guy! Here… Read More »
[February 2, 2021] Why do you need a résumé? In today’s job market, it has become overwhelmingly the way to impress a potential employer. We are told that without a résumé, you are at a disadvantage.

[November 29, 2020] He came over to shake my hand. My new neighbor next door, Mr. Jed Neidigh, had a big smile, a head full of white hair, and a firm grip. Howdy! He said as he welcomed my wife and me into the neighborhood. “I see you’re an Army man, like me.” Mr. Neidigh was the doughboy… Read More »
[July 31, 2020] Multiple times throughout my blog, I define leadership as the ability to get people to do things they would not ordinarily do and to do those things because they want to do them.1 That, however, is only half of what great leadership is about. Great leadership also means to know evil and face evil; only… Read More »
[July 30, 2020] We all experience it. We’ve all been there. Moral failure is the bane of the average person and always will be a problem. Yet, there are those failures that are of such epic proportions that we must tell and retell the story so that even the most ignorant or ideological blind cannot close the eyes… Read More »
[July 19, 2020] Sixteen years ago, I made the biggest moral compromise of my life. I always thought my character was solid, but on this date, during wartime, I began to think otherwise. It’s easy to make the right decisions when choices are black and white, where there is no complexity, and no one’s life is in danger. … Read More »
[June 28, 2020] I’ve been to the U.S. Army Fort Benning, Georgia, many times, receiving training, giving lectures and speeches, and attending a variety of schools.
