Dear Friends and Family, Fine, I admit it I am perpetually late. A man must be granted one fault. In an otherwise perfect human, just ask my wife and mom, I just can’t seem to get control of this one area of my life. Since the first step to resolving a problem is admitting it …

Christmas Letter (2003)
Dear Friends and Family, Emmaline has been studying holidays of the world at school. She and I have been researching Japan’s holidays. Their most important annual holiday is their New Year celebrated during January 1-3, called shogatsu. Instead of a Christmas letter this year I’m going to write a shogatsu letter…this has nothing to do …
Christmas Letter (2002)
Dear Friends and Family, Our year has been pretty boring by comparison…no new kids, no new house. This is the first Christmas letter that did not contain news of one or the other. Gran and Golfball sold my old house, does that count?!?!? For some reason they found it time for a change, they had …
Christmas Letter (2001)
Dear Friends and Family, I took a lot of flack over last year’s letter, in case you don’t remember it was four pages of some of the most heartfelt emotion ever laid down on a page. Comments went in all directions; here are the most common ones along with my response to each: “Thanks for …

BHAGs!
Have Goals! Live your life with goals. Cross things off your list, add new things, repeat! I’m an old man with ADHD who is always in chase of his next BHAG (Big, Hairy, Audacious Goal). I might move quickly from topic to topic, but they all interweave together into this thing called life. I only …
Topic: Importance Of Family
They say you can choose your friends but not your family. This means that for better or worse it looks like you are stuck with me for the remainder of our duration on this earth together. I love each one of you and wouldn’t have it any other way. I asked us all to dinner …
Tenet: Don’t Do Things That You Know Ain’t Right – Just act right! So many people get this simple concept wrong.
James 4:17 So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin. Just act right! So many people get this simple concept wrong! I have found myself wondering why people can’t just act right so many times in my life. It is mind-boggling things that you hear …
