HAVE YOU EVER BEEN SO EXCITED THAT…
Sometimes a person’s reaction seems disproportionate to the act or item being reacted to. This is the animal version of that. It reminds me of the time our sugar-obsessed 5-year old woke up before everyone else one Saturday morning. He got into the pantry and drank an entire 28-ounce bottle of Aunt Jemima pancake syrup [...]
HP TECHNOLOGY SUITE GIVEAWAY…
This is one of those times where it’s important to remember that it’s not all about winning. And to not kill the messenger. Of the approximately 1 million entries (I rounded up to the nearest million) there can be only one…winner (clever Highlander reference). And the winner is… …a very lucky person, indeed. The winner’s [...]

IN TO AFRICA: FIGHTING PNEUMONIA IN MALAWI
The other day I found myself in Malawi. You know, that tiny country in southeast Africa (don’t worry, I didn’t know either). I was there as part of a group with the Global Coalition Against Child Pneumonia. Yes, you read that correctly–PNEUMONIA. Not exactly the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Africa, [...]
School Breaks–Are They Always So Painful?
I’ve always questioned the need for February Break. Not from the teachers’ point of view of course because after a week with my kids pent up indoors it becomes obvious to even the casual observer that teachers need a break every month. And somehow they’ve managed to get it. There’s Fall Break, Thanksgiving Break, and [...]
A TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE, NO GOOD, VERY AWESOME DAY
“I Love You Dad” I couldn’t find the keys to the car. My wife was out of town. The kids were driving me crazy. I had a headache. My son broke his glasses in a fit of anger. While working in the yard a large thorn pierced my thumb. My football team got clobbered by its [...]
A Laundry List of My Distaste for Laundry
Fifty years ago President John F. Kennedy presented a bold challenge before a joint session of Congress: Send a man to the moon by the end of the decade. While many derided this notion as either madness or merely a political ploy, some of the brightest minds of the nation focused their efforts, and in [...]
Children Lying to Parents–The Ugly Truth
Have you ever told a lie? Me either. My 10-year old has been playing around on his mom’s computer a bit while she’s away on a trip. I’ve got a pretty good kid filter on our computers, but I still jump into the room unexpectedly now and then just to keep him honest. So imagine [...]
