I watch television at night. I don’t have time to watch television during the day of course, so I record my favorite shows to watch at night while I wind down and try to find some sleep. I have many favorite shows like Fringe, House, Once Upon A Time, Mythbusters, The Firm, Storm Chasers, Grimm, [...]

Back To Basics
I am a terrible golfer. I love the game, therefore I keep playing it. I guess you really have to love something in order to keep doing it even though you stink at it. Oh I have moments of greatness. Shots that belong on television. I even go through stretches where I play pretty well. [...]

A Huge Difference

Where Do We Go From Here?
I can’t help but wonder what it must have felt like, seeing your mentor nailed to a cross. You wonder when he will come down. You saw him raise people from the dead. Surely he would not let them do this. Doesn’t he know how much you need him? You are not ready. Any second [...]
