Drawn to a Dustup like Moths to a Porch Light
We human beings are strange creatures. We seem to be hardwired to be compelled to slow down and look at conflict and carnage. Remember in high school when a fight would break out how the kids would stand back and start cheering rather than try to break it up? Or can you tell me why a car wreck … Read more about Drawn to a Dustup like Moths to a Porch Light
Reserving the Right to be Wrong
Had to be Right There was a time in my life when I just had to be right about everything. It was important and I'd argue tooth and nail to get my point across.

Sunrise Over Savannah
Some days start way too early. Today was one of those days. The alarm was set for 4 AM so I could head out to a ship. Not that I needed the alarm in the end.
