The Perfect Family? When I was a young chap, there was no order. My birthmother was 23 when she had me, her 7th child (She would go on to have 2 more). She started having babies while she was still a teenager and never was able to grow up. She also never had a husband,... Continue Reading →
Time is our most valuable asset in life. We are not promised tomorrow and the only time we have is right now. So it goes without saying that if I am taking my precious and valuable time to write a review for the new Momentum Generation documentary, with this type of outlook, the you have...

We parked by the famous Frog House and sauntered into an establishment that served up what would be the best Calzone I have ever had in my life! I am sure that my starvation played a key role in...

Ten years ago, security cameras are something that I would have never considered for my home (due to the complexity of installation and the expense). When Dropcam came along, it solved the problem of hardwiring a security camera and made it simple. I purchased a Dropcam (now Nest) a few years ago so I can... Continue Reading →

Being grateful for me is akin to being the richest person on the planet. Being grateful is happiness. Being grateful is love. Being grateful is free. Being grateful... Continue Reading →
Former Running Back for the Seattle Seahawks (current RB for the Oakland Raiders), Marshawn Lynch, has gained notoriety for dodging the media. Time after time he would ignore the media's self-serving questions and remain silent. The few times he would speak, he would often say, "I'm just bout that action boss." His statement says a...
