Reverend Jesse Jackson is an ancestor now. The titans we studied in our history books are gone and weโ€™re all we have left. Weโ€™re called to fight, but weโ€™re also called to hope.

Weโ€™re our only hope.

Rest well, Reverend Jackson, and weโ€™ll see you in the morning.

Today is National Drink Wine Day

Today promotes the enjoyment and health benefits of wine, including reducing heart disease, and encourages people to share in the love of wine. It serves as a reminder of wine's long history - dating back to 7000 BC - and its role in culture and relationships.

You need a slow cooker

And Snoop Dogg has the Bible of slow cooker recipes

How old is your child or children

Mine is 43 now

There are times single parenting was easier than raising one with a spouse. Not always
