This is dedicated to all of the parents out there who have been forced to spend countless hours watching preschool programming.

Savor the Moment

Apparently, there’s been a little controversy surrounding the women of the Canadian hockey team and their celebration after winning the gold medal. Click here for the story. What I’m gathering so far is that the main difference between this and a championship in any other sport is that they didn’t stay in the locker room…where … Continue reading

The Ultimate Betrayal

“You try to be a good person, you try to take care of somebody, be a good brother. It’s sort of sad. It’s a sad day for my family. I don’t know how a family member could do something like that.” These are the words of Mark McGwire in response to questions about the book, … Continue reading

For instance, I have a friend I haven’t seen in a few months but the next time I see him all I would have to say is, “I’ve traveled 500 miles to give … Continue reading

The Public Apology

February 19, 2010. A day that will live in infamy. A day that has been months in the making. Tiger Woods finally broke his silence and issued his much-anticipated, long-awaited public apology (watch it here). So was it everything you had hoped it would be? Of course not. It wasn’t timely. It was scripted. It … Continue reading
