Got a call today that my dad graduated to be with our Lord.

I've got a lot of mixed feelings about his passing.

On the one hand, he was a part of Vietnam's walking wounded yet on the other hand, he was my dad.…

Black Friday

Why is that people are not content with what they have? The more and more that I get older I am learning to appreciate what God has given me and not placing my worth in things.

Luckily I grew out of that phase but sadly some are still there. The Holidays have really become about who has what… Continue

Giving thanksgiving on this turkey day

This year has been good. Although I've been without a job with coverage for a year and a half, I've been able to get certified in Final Cut Studio with Adobe certification to come in Photoshop, Illustrator & After Effects.
I've had to eat my own dog food of "your passion can bring the cash in" and by cash in, I don't mean the stereotypical selfish capitalistic way, I mean quality of life.


I have been able to expand on the authoring of the breakfast group…

*** My Letter to my Representatives, Senators and President Obama:About Bailing Out the Rich . . .***





Dear Representatives, Senators and President Obama:

I humbly ask that you do not allow the proverbial tail on the dog to wag the dog. In other words, DO NOT extend President Bush's tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% of Americans. This is America and here we are to care about each other- take that “suppose to care” terminology out of the equation. Of course, if you have awakened…

Is The Number 13 Considered Unlucky???







We are told that 13 is an unlucky number. The date Friday the 13th is taboo because the Knights Templar were arrested and condemned by the seneschals of Philippe IV, King of France, in a "pre-dawn raid" on Friday, October 13th, 1307. The number 13 has been shunned for centuries. Some architects omit the 13th floor from office buildings to this very day. Is it possible…
