Finding the Good in Everyday Life
Today is the first day of the NFL Draft. It's one of my favorite days of the year, if not my very favorite. Anybody who knows me, knows that I am obsessed with "my football team," the Pittsburgh Steelers. I've been that way since I was about 8 years old. I don't know why, I've [...]
I’ve always said that, if there is a heaven but it’s filled with a bunch of religious people who spent all their time spreading hate on earth, then I’m not really interested in going to heaven. And it’s kind of the same with dogs, or more accurately, the absence of dogs. If there is a [...]
I started thinking about all the movies Steve Martin has done, and these are my 5 favorite scenes.
There are a whole lot of unanswered questions in this world. A lot! Many of those questions keep me up at night. For some of those questions, I don't think I'll ever know the answer.

The one TV show that I almost never miss is CBS Sunday Morning. Mostly because I like to know what’s going on in the world, but I don’t like the dark feeling that you’re left with after watching the regular evening news, and definitely not the hopelessness that you get from cable news. And there [...]
And so it continues. My favorite dog breeds. Organizing this list was really hard. If I had my way, I’d just spend all day, every day out in an open field with dogs from every breed jumping all over me. But if I had to take only 5 breeds with me, this would be them. [...]
