Keep it simple

Have you ever seen some of the products recently? They are so complicated and have so much on them that there is something bound to go wrong. There use to be a idea that was called K.I.S.S.  It stood for Keep It Simple Stupid.  I realize that potentially calling someone stupid is not ideal, but […]

Hard days work

These days it seems that people really do not want to work.  For some reason, it appears as all of them think they should come out of high school earning over 100k or they should earn as much as a person with a college education and if they do not, then I should not have […]

Sick and Traveling

Wow it has been a week.  Where has the time gone? Last Tuesday I got sick and as the week went on it got worse and worse.  On top of that my wife and I traveled with our daughter to her new summer job which is a considerable distance away. It was sad to leave […]

Be prepared

Most people have heard of the Boy Scout motto, Be Prepared! Some will live up to this saying by having just about everything possible on hand.  I am sure you have met that person who has the utility tool that does 100 things.  They will have a tool box that will have something for every […]

Am I doing what I am supposed to be doing?

I travel as a consultant and audit a lot of companies for compliance.  I use to love this type of work, but recently I have been wondering am I really cut out for it.  Do I have what it really takes to be exceptional at what I am doing.  Not for the sake of man, […]

Be careful of the inputs

Not that long ago my wife and I got into a bit of an argument over a comment she made to me in the car.  It made the comment that I like fantasy stuff, dragons and wizards.  I do not want to be a wizard or a dragon and I certainly do not worship either […]

Making time for God

Have you ever had so much to do that sometimes you forget to do something or just run out of time?  Well that has been me over the past few weeks and I apologize.  However, that is no excuse. So to often, we do not make time for God, but expect God to not only […]

Which sex are you today?

There was a case recently heard in Richmond VA where the Federal Judge agreed with or upheld a lower courts ruling about a transgender person who wishes to use the bathroom of whichever sex they identify with.  Apparently the ACLU was part of this decision process and applauded the Judge for making the correct decision. […]

Erasing our history

I just heard that the twenty dollar bill with Andrew Jackson will be replaced by Harriet Tubman.  Our country is trying its best to eliminate anything to do with slavery. Sorry folks, it is a part of our past and as long as we continue to live as though it is happening in the present […]

Hard ass

My son recently thanked me in front of a lot of people for being a hard ass.  It was a bit embarrassing, but he meant it in a good way, I think. I have always pushed my children to do the best they can, but I would never do the work for them. I would […]
