Blown Away
As you know, those of us on the Eastern seaboard were blown away by the remnants of Hurricane Irene this past weekend. The storm came in on Saturday morning and whipped us around in Maryland until early Sunday. Trees and power lines went down. An old...
My First Earthquake! Wow!
We just had an earthquake here in the Maryland, Washington D.C., Baltimore area around 2:00 this afternoon. My first one. WOW! I was typing a story about women's sports (no wonder) when all of a sudden everything began to shake. I was at the library...
What is a real man?
Okay. I am a 43 year old, single African-American man with no children. Some find that odd. So be it. I know who I am. Just another imperfect human being with strengths and weaknesses. But I am not your stereotypical brother. I have five sisters and...
Putting on the armor
I begin officiating high school football again starting next week. A scrimmage then the real games start on the last weekend of August. I am always ready to get started and this year is no exception. I have only been an official for six years. This ...

Happy Birthday to my best friend
Today is my best friend Tom's birthday. This is a picture of us from Christmas around the early 90's. Thus the Miami and Notre Dame sweatshirts. Their football rivalry was going pretty strong then. I am not a Miami fan, but my brother gave me the shirt...
Baseball hall of fame hypocrisy
Well the baseball hall of fame inducted two more members today, second baseman Roberto Alomar and pitcher Bert Blyleven. Congratulations to them. Absent from the hall is the man who was the first to hit 70 home runs in a season Mark McGuire. Of course...
Slow down!
God is doing it to me again. He's telling me to 'Slow down!' He does this whenever I begin to doubt his plan for me and rush things. Here is how. This morning I woke up around 8:30 and said to myself, 'I've got so much to do and only a little time to...
