Local Politics
Tonight my wife and I went to a forum for some mayoral candidates in our city. Wow. That’s all I can really say. Of the 5 contenders who spoke tonight there are actually only two viable candidates for me. Of the other three: -One didn’t seem to really prepare for this government thing and kept…

If you had asked me this question when I was about 7, I would’ve said Mike Teevee from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I loved the idea of getting to go to chocolate factory and getting that while experience, but also I loved what they did with his character in the movie version. He was…

I used to be better
I remember a time in my life, 2014-2016, when I could do the following: get up, shower, get dressed, get 4 kids up and dressed, get everyone to school/daycare, go to work, be productive all day at work, leave work, pick up the two at daycare, get home, change, get back on the road to…

I really enjoy watching Olympic winter sports the most. I like snowboarding, all of the skiing, and speed skating but most of the sports are fun to watch, especially curling. It’s so ridiculous that it’s fun. The measuring device is so gigantic that’s is laughable watching them drag it out. Summer sports are ok and…

I would work in the footwear section of a sporting goods store for free. I actually had this job for awhile while I was in ROTC. I loved every minute of it. I got to try on all the shoes I ever wanted to try on and I bought a bunch more of shoes that…
