Some Quick Notes and A Call for Titles

Before I get to the main part of the post, a quick story, because it’s been a while since I embarrassed my kids. After school today, my boys took part in a Halloween party. Normally, this wouldn’t be much to comment about. However, things never seem to travel along a normal path around here. To…
