Anything could happen in the world right now — and as you well know, a lot could. But it wouldn’t change the topic of my column for this glorious day in my annals of college football lore. For the second time in my lifetime, the University of Meeeechigan Wolverines are college football champions. And without […]
It’s nearly impossible for me to believe, but I’ve been living, working and publishing in the Grand Valley for nearly a quarter of a century. For some, I’m sure it feels like I’ve been doing those things wrong for much longer. Well, them’s the breaks. If you ever take one thing to heart in all […]
Dang. Now I’ve got the Sonny and Cher song stuck in my head. How cool was life back in that day if you know when that song came out. What a great time to grow up. But this column isn’t about the variety show version of life or worldly spices sprinkled all over its smorgasbord […]
Every so often Facebook isn’t actually Satan’s custom-designed, most-successful playground and some rays of light shine through. While the light in my life resides in my faith, He occasionally sends a message through others. Occasionally, if I’m paying attention, the evil which is Facebook presents His message in His perfect timing. For this column, the […]

My desire is always to have citizens vote for smaller government, fewer government powers, less taxes, less government intrusion and putting good people into office. Now you’re probably wondering I’m usually disappointed in election results. Yeah, me too. […]

And just who might “they” be? As history proves time and again, the usual suspects: The Democrat party, teachers unions and all those “unaffiliated,” leftist candidates. For those of you who don’t know this fact, I can hazard a pretty accurate guess which subjects you didn’t pay attention to in your education — the sub-topic […]
That’s because it would be impossible to make a theater joke without it being offensive or sexual in some way. Imagine just how difficult it’s gonna be for an entire column. Yes, this column is about U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert and her self-inflicted wound earlier this month at the theater. See? Even while I tried […]
As I continue to monitor the insanity drama starring our marionette-in-chief, President Joe Biden, something clicked from a most ridiculous source: Hollywood. I suppose I could have used the term Fellini-esque. But with today’s education system … . I digress. Then again, the Biden administration has basically become Hollywood. By that, I mean a horrifically […]
I guess that’s what happens when a life-changing event occurs. Everything is highlighted, enhanced and multiplied exponentially based on the personal importance the event, person or happenstance has in your life. Sadly, I wasn’t paying much attention to these while my life played out. So please bear with me while I wax philosophically — or […]
