One hundred years from now when people are sitting around talking about you, what do you want them to be saying? Do you want them to say, “He was a bit of a jerk from what I’ve been told and he knew how to drink a six pack of beer every day.” Or possibly, “He [...]
An old friend of mine recently read my blog and was pleased to see that we agreed that iceberg lettuce and schools both suck the life out of people. I loved his observation, and I especially love that we’d both come to these conclusions separately. I’ve been thinking about my friend’s comment and I realized [...]
Located just west of Phoenix, right off of I-10 in the town of Litchfield Park, Arizona, is the Wildlife World Zoo & Aquarium.

A combination of flavors, these bite sized morsels are loved [...]
This is such an exciting year for my family; Super Star Trek Sunday and Groundhog Day are back-to-back! We spent yesterday watching Star Trek, playing Star Trek games, doing a Starfleet Academy Training Course, doing Star Trek trivia questions, eating Star Trek inspired foods, and most of all: enjoying the company of our friends who [...]
