If someone tells you to do something in a hurry without thinking about it….

…there is a reason they don’t want you to realize.

The question is: Will there still be history books?

Life after working mids: Drinking an 8 ounce coffee at 1pm in the afternoon, and following it with a 1 hour nap at 1:45pm.

I’m saddened by what I see on TV today.

We’re no longer the America we once were. I pray we can get back there some day.

Today I got to watch my oldest kid play in the South Dakota All-State Middle School Orchestra. The top 84 players in the state!

She ended up in the 7th chair out of 18 violas.

The age old snow forecast problem…give people a snow range, say 2-5” and I’d bet more will think they are getting 5” (or react strongly to it) than getting 2”.

Probabilities might help, if they are actually reliable. Does the average Joe want them though?
