I really enjoy a good slice of pie.  My mother-in-law makes an amazing pumpkin pie, every year she has to take into account how many pies will be eaten.  We all have our favorites, but there is always more than enough pumpkin pie. The first family Thanksgiving we had after Naomi and I were...
Echoes from the Loafers’ Club Meeting   Could I get a cheeseburger without the cheese?   Why don’t you just order a hamburger?   I don’t like hamburgers. Driving by Bruce's drive   I have a wonderful neighbor named Bruce. Whenever I pass his drive, thoughts occur to me. I started the...
Trees are magnificent and wonderful, the longest-living organisms on earth: Where would the rest of us be without them? Some trees live to be fewer than 100 years old, some live into the thousands of years.  One particular great basin bristlecone pine, a breed located in the mountainous regions...
Have you ever been so tired that you wanted to sleep, but couldn’t get to sleep or stay asleep?  And then other times when you know you need to stay awake, you fall asleep quickly?  It is a frustrating experience, but a reality we have faced.  The balance of rest and activity is complex and...

Echoes from the Loafers’ Club Meeting  What do you know?  You don’t want to know.  That’s good to know. Driving by Bruce's drive  I have a wonderful neighbor named Bruce. Whenever I pass his drive, thoughts occur to me. Lefty loosey, righty tighty doesn’t apply to making turns with your...
The life of a college football coach has become much more stressful and complicated. In the “good old days,” coaches studied elite high school athletes, called them, visited them, then wooed them to sign and play for their teams. The higher-profile programs and colleges located in recruiting...
I lost my keys this fall and can only now just talk about it.  It has taken me this long to come to grips with the frustration and concern I had for losing them as well as how they were found.  It was an ordeal I do not wish to go through again. Right now I have 4 sets of keys that I am the...
