I have so many memories and the weirdest ones come back to me at the strangest times. The thunder and rain woke me up early so I had a banana smoothie and decided to blog. I used to work long hours at this bank. We had MUZAK. If you have ever worked retail you are…

It was fun. On a property outside of Dallas, this family owns some land and hosted the event. I turned onto the is dirt road and thought Bessie, my GPS, was  playing tricks on me. So, I call my friend and it is indeed the place. So I continue down this gravel road with ditches on either side…

I can't blame the media if we keep providing ammunition.   **I removed the second video. The guy who posted…

God is amazing in how he reveals things to you. There were certain situations in my life when I thought, man, if I had only turned left instead of right then everything would be different. A few weeks ago, I wrote a post about making the wrong decision. Low and behold, I get contacted by…
