Proving the saying true
The saying is “There’s no such thing as an ex-Marine.” I’ve had the privilege of knowing several retired Marines, but I’ve never met an ex-Marine. Major “Fox” Sinke proved that saying true when he went to stand guard at the National War Memorial in Canada where Cpl. Nathan Cirillo was killed on October 22. You […]

Happily celebrating destruction
I was fifteen when the Berlin Wall fell. I remember watching the newscasts. At least I think I remember watching; maybe I’m remembering watching them in school after the event. But I’m pretty sure I watched it on the evening news. Everybody watched the evening news in those days if you can believe that. My […]

A PSA to big brothers and sisters everywhere.
Be kind to your younger siblings. Do not make them ride in the hatchback of your 1985 Mustang. Do not go along with your friends when they tell your kid sister she was a Cabbage Patch Kid my parents bought for me who came to life and we couldn’t return her to the store. When they […]

Fine Arts Friday: breaking with (my) tradition
When it comes to hymns, I tend to be a traditionalist. I prefer the original version to new adaptations.

Last night, Little Miss and I participated in the Ace of Spades Decision Desk crowdsourcing of election returns. Which just means we feverishly reloaded government websites and entered numbers into a spreadsheet. So much excitement!

Terrible Tuesday: Election day disappointment
Our kids have been going with us to vote all their lives, often getting to push the final “submit your vote” button. Is that voter fraud? Moving on! My favorite voting experience was when Little Miss was about four. We had one of those lucky breaks where every line has a long wait except for […]

Thanksgiving devotions
One of my favorite family traditions is the practice of having family worship. However, we do run into difficulties. While some families seem to have great success just reading through the Bible, our family needs more structure. We’ve used a number of different devotionals over the years, and they almost all seem to be geared […]
