Traits of Self Control
Son, I continue with my series on behavior – I remain inspired by the efforts of Bill Cosby. Again – I found some old literature, not of my origin. This paper is like many others, it has been copied and recopied – it has served others. Perhaps it has more life. Self Control: 1. Has […]

Son, I continue my diatribe on behavior, inspired by Bill Cosby. Many of us venture out into the world with fundamentally reckless attitudes that get us into trouble.

Son, To follow-up on my last post I will present some of the rules of dysfunctional families. This is not advocacy – just observations.

Son, You and I have had some success with this blog. First and foremost to me is the opportunity to talk with you every day – no father is more blessed. We started this thing so others could join in our father and son chats. It may be difficult for some to believe – but […]

Dad, I just finished reading this book. It is one of those books that leaves you a little empty when it is over because you won’t get to spend time with those characters anymore. I wish that I would get a postcard from them. “Water for Elephants” is a beautiful story and an impressive bunch […]
