It seems that my radio show was on the cutting edge again. I don’t say that to boast. I say it when it’s the truth.

We are often on top of stories that the media at large only pick up the next day or even days later.

One of the stories making the rounds today is one we talked about…

I had the pleasure of filling in for my friend and colleague John Gibson a couple of days last week and as much fun as I had, I was so dismayed by some of the callers I took on the subject of  jobs, dreams, and opportunities.

From listening to them, one would find no reason to even get up in…

I was out in the rain yesterday with our daughter Gingy, running one errand after another.

We both got hungry for a snack to hold us until dinner and the Burger King was right there and looked good.

As we pulled up to the drive thru window, Gingy had already made her choice. “APPLES, Daddy!! APPLES!!”

Yep. She loves the…

I just spent several days in Disneyland, the Happiest Place On Earth as they call it. I literally managed to shield myself from the news. Something that is very hard for me, even while on vacation with my family.

My goal was to completely relax–not an easy thing when trying to keep tabs of 6 kids in a place as…

I was kind of glad that Tiger Woods vanished out of the forefront of the news.

Yes, I DID talk about the Woods scandal, but not endlessly like many in the media did.

But now he is back in the spotlight. Tomorrow he will issue a 5 minute apology and announcement that he will be returning to golf.

Does “sorry”…

As I have mentioned extensively on my radio show, my wife and I don’t celebrate Valentine’s Day. We think it’s totally overrated and too much pressure is put on people.

Not to offend those who DO, but we are sweet to each other all the time. Flowers, especially roses, are not a rare sight to my wife. We constantly surprise…

An idle mind is the Devil’s playground.

Remember that saying?

It means sitting around and not having enough to do can lead you to trouble. If you are always busy doing your routines, you are less likely to sit around and contemplate mischief.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when our kids say “I’m bored”!! Makes me crazy. After…

Think  of all the stupid mistakes you have made in your job. Go ahead. We’ve all made them.

OK. Now this will probably make you feel better.

I bet your worse mistake (or ONE of your worst mistakes) couldn’t POSSIBLY measure up to the latest California BLUNDER.

The Department of Health Care Services made a boo boo last week when…

Trust me. I know how hard it can be to get everything done that you want or need to get done in a day’s time.

With six kids, sometimes it’s hard to imagine how we make everything from coming and going from school, guitar lessons, basketball and baseball games, and other activities  fit into an already chaotic schedule of work…

Two articles this week on the subject of students using cell phones in class made me cringe.

The first one told a tale of students texting back and forth right under the teachers’ noses. The tone was one of futility in trying to stop the activity.

Can you believe this?? We’ve gone from the extreme days of ruler slaps to the wrist…
