A fool will always be a fool, especially after the election. Why is it a mistake to forsake character when casting our vote? Make no mistake about it – many state and national level politicians openly demonstrate more about themselves and their true character than ever before – the good, bad and the ugly laidContinue reading “Good Character is Worth the Consequences”

Don’t Cross the Streams! “Excuse me Egon, you said crossing the streams was bad!” This classic line from the 1984 film “Ghostbusters” is the perfect illustration of a known and accepted practice that if flipped (depending on your politics) will be either good or bad. The streams that are not traditionally crossed for the purposeContinue reading ““Excuse me Egon, you said crossing the streams was bad!””

Why is it so hard for us to change our minds (even if we know we could be wrong) – we all want to think we stand firm for the things we believe in – beliefs are really important – none of us want our friends and family too see us as ‘flip floppers’.

The talking heads tell us the blame for high gas prices should fall on Biden/Trump/Obama, Keystone Pipeline, Russia, Ukraine, European markets, federal restrictions,Continue reading “Trust What You Can Validate”

I Suck – You Suck – We all Suck We all do terrible things – either intentionally or unintentionally, we all participate in casting some degree of negativity on the people and conditions around us – it’s kind of who we are as humans – our basic nature has an imbedded propensity to rub eachContinue reading “Don’t Suck”
