To St. Joseph; The Best Husband & Dad EVER–Merry Christmas
I just felt compelled to write a few words about a simple man, a man of incredible faith, unyielding loyalty, and a heart so filled with love for his wife and child it might have exploded if that were possible. I am referring to Joseph (Yosef in Hebrew) the husband of Mary and the earthly…

This Christmas a "Bronx cheer" for the Unintelligent
The Christmas season has triggered what seems to be an all out barrage of vitriolic ranting and raving by a gaggle of the enlightened, highbrow, polished, pompous, intelligentsia that satisfy their quest for validation by spewing their crap all over the place. You know what—Christmas IS a celebration of the birth of a child and…

"Black Friday" is now "Black Insanity"
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, but the truth is, it has attained that status in my world through the default of my REAL favorite holiday, Christmas. Christmas, in and of itself, will always be the best holiday because of what it represents; Peace on Earth, Good Will to All, Joy to the World and Love…

"Being Thankful for Thanksgiving-"
I’m a holiday kind of guy. I love the Christmas season with its “peace-on-earth” and ‘”joy-to-the-world” messages and Santa Claus, and elves and Christmas lights and all that comes with the excitement leading up to Christmas Day.

I know, get over it. 'After all, it's only politics"
This was my 12th presidential election and it took me until Thursday to accept, not the election results but rather, how we got to those results. Inside my discombobulated and foggy muse I know the system we have has worked–again. I know we have re-elected a sitting president–again. It is all “good”, right? God Bless America,…

"A Guy Named Barney" Just a Doorkeeper
The election season has fried my brain. The pundits, the commentators, the campaign officials, the editorial writers and, of course the candidates. My God, MASSIVE EGOS–everywhere. They are all experts in everything you can think of and they villify each other, name call, besmirch each other and even attack their opponent’s families. It had finally gotten to…

"Little Sisters Threatened by Big Brother"
The Little Sisters of the Poor is a catholic, religious organization founded in France in the first half of the 19th century. A woman by the name of Jeanne Jugan (now Saint Jeanne Jugan) felt the need to help care for the many poverty stricken elderly who seemingly were everywhere in France. She began her…

"My Pollyanna bubble is ready to burst"
Last week I posted that we Christians (Catholics included) are the latest victims of hate crimes subjected to what seems to be a daily onslaught of ridicule, degradation, mockery, lampooning and defilement. Our President and Secretary of State saw fit to use tax-payer money to star in a video apologizing to Muslims for a 13…
