Personal

Dedicated to Alex, Joy, Katie, the others along with all my friends and colleagues. When I was a little boy, my older siblings, cousins, and their co-conspirators liked to taunt me by calling me an old monkey.
I learned that we must believe in ourselves and invest in our abilities to constantly and consistently persevere.
Thwse are "The Crème De La Crème"

We grow up being told never ever judge a book by its cover. But since some are banning and others burning books, eyes have it.

You may not realize it, but the way we move our eyes can say a lot. Some individuals often exhibit a certain level of observational prowess. They are constantly scanning their surroundings, soaking up every detail.

Observant eye movements indicate an active mind, always processing and analyzing information. It’s a clear signal of an individual’s capacity to understand complex situations and think on their feet.

POTUS traveled to Hawaii bringing needed assistance and supporting the local island residents of Lahaina in Maui.

Biden visited Maui after devastating wildfires. https://cimages.me/content/LAHAINA-PARADISE-LOST - The President was met with grief over relief efforts. POTUS arrived with federal support and offered sincere empathy, as the consoler in chief. which was more than the paper towels the former guy threw at the devastated Puerto Rican natives.

My wife and I can't wait to see Olivia and Parker, the youngest grandkids we have dearly missed during the troublesome pandemic.

I am a proud grandpa with two healthy arms to hug each one, and I know that embracing them is not enough.

WHEN IT COMES TO GORGEOUS GREEN SPACES, THERE’S MUCH MORE TO NEW YORK CITY THAN MEETS THE EYE.

FROM MANHATTAN TO QUEENS, THE CITY IS BRIMMING WITH MAGNIFICENT PARKS, HAVENS OF GREENERY OF ALL SIZES THAT OFFER AN INVITATION TO STROLLING AND RELAXATION. AN OVERVIEW OF THESE SPACES NOT TO BE MISSED ON A TRIP TO THE BIG APPLE.

Why doesn't everyone send a note out of the blue to anyone who's done something nice for you and made a difference in your life? 

I am fortunate to have reconnected with two former greats at the beginning of my long and distinguished communications career. They were Dr. Charles Sweeting, WPU Professor, where I received my advanced degree, and Doctor Ken Tiven Managing Editor WPLG, where I landed my first paying job on TV and earned my street-wise Ph.D. from the School of Hard Knocks (aka) The University of Life. 

Sophia, my teenage grandchild, and my oldest daughter’s youngest daughter moved out of her parents' cocoon into a college dorm.

The job as I see it is to excel, receive a well-rounded education, and have some fun, while you’re at it. I know she can do it.

And as most folks know, the high school diploma is earned after a course of study lasting four years, from grade 9 to grade 12. The diploma is awarded and in many cases, it is seen as the first day of the rest of your life. Parker and Olivia are next!!!

A summer of joy is what We The People really need. Many of us feel discouraged and overwhelmed by the bitter divisions around us.

After guns, then abortion, school prayer, and a near-death of the administrative state, it’s time to give yourself a treat and consider a relationship with the Universe as it is always in motion bringing great forces together.
