I hope you’re joining me in wearing a necktie today. Why? It’s the 8th of November.

So we had primary elections for 8th district representative from Wisconsin last month. As is typical, before the primary, candidates are quite cautious to not bash each other, after all, their opponents are from the same political party. But once the primary is over, the gloves are off.
I’ve had so much to say about this [...]

If you’re looking for a great CD, something unique and a little different, check out “Kindness“, a 5-song volume by the Steve Carson Band. I’ve been listening to Steve since his early days with his band Exit. His song writing is inspirational, and his sound is quite unique.
Be sure to listen to some track samples [...]

We’ve all read about Dallas Mavericks owner, Mark Cuban. I just watched the program Q&A on C-SPAN where Cuban was tonight’s guest. What a great conversation! In case you’re not familiar with Cuban’s history, you can read his bio on the Mavericks web site. Suffice it to say that what this man touches turns to [...]

Do you listen to Paul Harvey? Why not? He’s been on the radio for decades and his unique voice is a pleasure to listen to. When I hear it, it’s like an old friend has come home.
He has two shows that you should catch. He’s been doing “News and Comment” for over 55 years! Yep, [...]
