There’s dust on the furniture on this blog and it smells of spoiled food (I think I left a half-eaten Jimmy John’s sub behind the cabinet …thankfully not a tuna sub). It’s kinda embarrassing because I still consider myself a “blogger”, but if I’m… Continue Reading “Imagination is a Wonderful Thing”
When it comes to kids and sports, I have strong opinions on things. First, it’s my belief, after 8 years of coaching soccer with 4 different teams, and helping coach baseball for 4 seasons, and having played soccer myself (after genetics dictated I was… Continue Reading “Things I Think: Big Difference Between Proud and Happy”
It’s been a while since I had random thoughts. Random thoughts used to keep me going. If I understand “rent control”, it’s something that happens in Manhattan. Or maybe all of New York.
