Look Out Donald You May be Headed for a Fall

How many of you watched cartoons on Saturday mornings when you were a kid and watched Donald Duck trip over his own feet or be pounded down in the ground by an unsuspected adversary? I couldn’t believe my eyes this morning when I looked at the new poll numbers in Iowa.  Trump’s lead is narrowing […]

Another Senseless Murder

Why do bad things happen to good people?  The question is asked again and again but simply floats into oblivion without an answer.  This past week we watched in horror as another senseless shooting took the lives of two innocent people.  Their young lives were snuffed out without warning in a place in which they […]

Are You Accountable?

The past week I was faced head on with some choices I had made that had placed me in an undesirable position but one for which I was totally accountable. Strangely enough it made me think of all the changes that have taken place in our world and in our own country for which no […]

Where is Eddie Haskell When You Need Him?

The results are in. The newest poll shows Trump still on top followed by Cruz and Carson. Carley Fiorina is next in line. Isn’t  it interesting that out of the top four only one is a politician and he is the most out-spoken blatantly honest Senator in Congress.  Kudos to the American public for recognizing […]

Fox News – Unfair and Unbalanced

What Really is Domestic Violence?

In our society today we are plagued with this question over and over.  Almost daily we hear of women, children and even men at times being abused by a spouse, partner or family member.   But we must then ask ourselves the question:  what really constitutes domestic abuse? Some will explain it as physical violence against […]

Betty’s Pies Will Never Be The Same

For the past 30 years and a good time prior to that I have spent my summers relaxing at the North Shore.  The memories I have shared with my family and friends are the treasures that fill my heart and mind. One of the most precious memories was our annual trip to Betty’s Pies, a […]
