Name That Tune?

In college for some reason that defies logic, I thought the words to “Little Red Corvette” were “pay the rent collect.” It is not even close, and it doesn’t make any sense. Venmo and PayPal didn’t exist then. Don’t mock me. Everyone gets the words wrong to a song or two. Sometimes we know theContinue reading “Name That Tune?”

Real Customer Support

When you order high-speed Internet, you can be sure of one thing: the customer service will not be. Gone are the days when someone came to your house to install it. Now, the box arrives on your front porch with pictorial instructions on how the whole thing is supposed to go together. Now, I knowContinue reading “Real Customer Support”

Mine was to step up my prayer life, start writing my blog once a week, AGAIN, and get to the gym several times a week, AGAIN. Well, here it is, a month and a halfContinue reading “Join The”Febra-lution””

I scared God & Looked What Happened!

13 May 2016 I scared God.  At least according to my friend Luis.  22 years ago, I hit my knees on the floor of my Phoenix apartment and told God, I got it.  If it was just Him and me for the rest of my life, that would be enough for me.  Now I wasContinue reading “I scared God & Looked What Happened!”
