Tuesday, November 22, 2022 6:28 AM

If we do a fraction of the items on this list, we’ll feel better about ourselves and our families and neighbors will feel better about themselves, too.

Why I trust business over government

Monday, November 14, 2022 9:21 AM

In business, hiring someone is taken very seriously and if a mistake is made, it can be quickly corrected. In elections, the voter can often be unqualified, from a training point, to choose; and the candidates can be unqualified to serve. The next opportunity to change is two, four or six years away.

Money doesn’t fix everything

Tuesday, November 8, 2022 7:20 AM

Ever wonder why older people seem “more religious?” Not sure I can define “more religious” precisely, but I am sure you have seen it and can recognize it. It is simply this. Most people eventually realize money can’t solve every problem in life.

Modern American culture in three acts

Monday, October 31, 2022 11:56 AM

There is a famous restaurant in Tampa, Fla. that Laura has talked about for years, lo, even for decades. She tried to get us a reservation there this past Valentine’s Day when we escaped to Florida a few days toward the end of winter. Then, she discovered that the restaurant’s reservation waiting list is 60 days long. This place is very exclusive and has been since the 1950s.

Elections have consequences

Wednesday, October 26, 2022 6:51 AM

Lincoln said, “We do not inherit the earth from our ancestors; we borrow it from our children.” Let’s make sure that ecologically, politically and morally, we leave our children something worth having. Vote with your intellect and your heart. Leave your greed and impishness at home on election day.

Well, isn’t this interesting?

Monday, October 17, 2022 9:32 AM

What the Labor Department is going to do is drive more demand to Upwork where its gig workers are beyond the laws of the United States, causing more work to be done by those outside our country. But that’s OK as long as we capture the union dues from the 20 million inside the U.S. that are gig workers.

I have questions

Wednesday, October 12, 2022 12:41 PM

We won’t solve any of these questions in time for the upcoming election. However, if we think deeply about them (see last week’s column), we may start to make some wiser choices in the voting booth and move the needle a bit toward a saner future.

Try looking at all the information assaulting you – not just that from politicians and telemarketers – on a deeper level.

Laura and I have been in Spain and Portugal for more than a week. We will be flying home on Oct. 1. One’s perspective is a matter of location. Over here, the contemporary issues are as follows.

Fixing increasing disgruntlement

Sunday, September 18, 2022 9:08 AM

Take the challenge. If enough people do, we can change the mood in this country by Thanksgiving. This is one place where I truly feel we are all in this together. Take a stand against greed. The United States of America is at stake.
