I hadn’t seen Bob in over 30 years, but there he was – his name showing prominently in email inbox. Richard and I used to hang out in college, but years, miles, and the dredges of life halted communication – until that day I heard “hey buddy, give me call…”…
I have probably read more threads and discussions on Facebook this week than would be advisable, but I have to admit, the matter concerning Phil Roberston involves a lot more than just Phil’s right to speak his mind, or A&E’s right to protect their brand. I welcome the debate on…
I find it tragic that our values are so screwed up in this country. Others have said it better than I can, but when, as a society we gawk, laugh, and embrace the likes of Snookie, Miley Cyrus and the Kardashians and then condemn a simple humble man for expressing…
