Writing, Photography, and the life lessons I learned from Street Academy
As you might have read from various recent blog posts, I’ve been having fun at the local drive-in. I’ve taken photos there, I’ve captured fireworks there, and now I want to try something very special with a piece of drive-in iconography. I want to take one of those old car speakers – you know, the…
Read MoreIt was a moment that will be forever sealed in my memory. It changed my thoughts about college and campus life and standing up for a cause. And while part of me is still disturbed about why the statue was removed, I still have trouble coming to any sort of understanding why this had to…
Read MoreI had fun yesterday on Facebook with a bit of a friend-participation game. It’s a challenge, a fun challenge at that. Take any movie, and try to challenge people to identify it. But you’re only allowed to use three words to describe the movie. And, as a tougher challenge, you’re not allowed to use any…

I am all for supporting those people who can make homemade and home-stitched face masks. I think it’s hella cool that they can do this. I’ve actually purchased some face masks from some of my friends, in that I know we’re going to need to wear them for a very long time. Trust me, COVID-19…
Read MoreThere’s a website out there called Cameo, in which you can pay to have an athlete, actor, musician, public figure, whomever, wish your best bud a Happy Birthday or a congratulations or the like.
