  • Politics: A Bounce House

    Politics are like a children's bounce house. Everyone inside appears to be having fun, but upon further inspection we realize that this is precisely because they are children. Pandemonium is somehow the source of the entertainment.  Without it, the inhabitants would lose interest and exit.  Anyone with any sense would not seek to enter it…

  • The Biggest Lesson I Learned in 2009 is . . .

    Personal growth is a must for any would-be leader. Taking stock of progress made in that regard is both encouraging and instructive. It can remind us of the territory covered and inspire us to grow further toward our ideal. In that spirit, I would like to hear from all three of my readers. If possible,…

  • Decoding Socialist Phrases – A Collaboration

    One of my favorite exercises on this blog is when you, my 3 loyal readers, participate in a collaboration. For this one I'd like to have you assist me in putting together a socialistic jargon de-coder. Let me give you a few examples below to get you started (with thanks to author Alexander Boot for…

  • A Question on Government

    I think it's time for another collaboration between all three of you readers out there!

  • Thankful for . . .

    On this day it seems most appropriate to express gratitude and thankfulness for blessings in our lives both large and small.  As for me, I am thankful for:   1. God's saving grace 2. family and friends who have been there for us through Terri's scary ordeal.  We certainly learned who our true friends were!…

  • Positive Pessimisms

    Okay, that's enough serious stuff on this blog for a while.  It's time to have some fun. Erik Weihenmayer, an extraordinary individual, is an author, speaker, and a mountaineer who has climbed the top seven highest peaks in the world.  He's also completely blind.  I had the pleasure of hearing him speak at a recent…

  • Obstacles Collaboration

    It’s been a while since we’ve done a collaboration on this blog, but I always love getting everyone’s mind working together on something.  In this case, I was inspired by a comment from Chuck Larner who came up with the name "Mediocrates" for one of Obstacle’s friends.  I responded back that "Ida" would be the…
