Renaissance 2.0
What does Monday get such a bad rap? I mean, you never hear anyone say, “Thank God it’s Monday!” Well, maybe if they’re in a straight jacket, sure, but not normally. I know that Monday is no different than Friday, but still, it just feels so crappy. It’s the first day of another long work…
Watching that movie 61* has got me thinking about my goal and purpose in life. Why am I here and what will be my lasting legacy? Life gets so hectic and busy that we lose track of our dreams and wind up spinning our wheels and wasting precious time on things or people that don’t…
Here’s a common dilemma. Is it smart to jeopardize a great friendship for possibly one night of passion? Would you take the chance of destroying a special friendship by becoming lovers? It’s not as much of a slam dunk as most people think it is. Usually, if it’s that easy a decision, it is because…

Does anyone not like Halloween? I mean, no matter how bad a childhood you might have had, Halloween had to be a great time of year for any kid. All that candy and for free! The fun of becoming anyone or anything you wanted. The excitement of not knowing what you would get from someone…
Here it is, Mischief Night or Devil’s Night. The night before Halloween was almost as exciting to me and my childhood buddies growing up on the mean streets of Newark, New Jersey. It meant getting eggs to throw at cars, buses and people we didn’t like. Soaping and waxing car windows. Wearing dark clothes to…
Recently, I posted something about how obsessed our society is over winning and how sad it is to be so focused on the results of competition instead of the thrill of the game. Well, I must admit that I am feeling rather overjoyed today about my lifelong favorite sports team, the New York Yankees, winning…
