T.J. Lane: You Can’t Manage Crazy

There is a point of no return where you can’t repair something or you can’t fix it and if it were a lame horse you most likely would shoot it. Some people cannot find it within themselves to be humble, to admit they are wrong or even seek the compassion of others. In the case of T.J. Lane that point has been pasted after today. You can’t drag other people across the finish line if they don’t want to be in the race from the start

OPINION: Strongsville Teachers Are Wrong

So you say you went into teaching because you love children, love sharing knowledge and being a leader. Well breaking that trust and going on strike is a lesson that will stay with the current Strongsville Mustangs forever. Lesson one you can lead by example by showing others that you can work out trivial, tiny small problems while working. Lesson two no matter what you ever taught in class about integrity it worthless now that you are walking the picket line. Lesson three no matter how nice the school we teach in, or how well behaved our students are, or how well we are paid we can ask for more, period.

Kevin Ayers Dead At 68

Kevin Ayers could be called one of rock’s nuttier song writer with a mind for the quirky tunes. Problem being he really never worked hard enough to hit the big time in Rock-n-Roll. Don’t get me wrong I loved his music and love playing “Stranger in Blue Suede Shoes” on 98.5 WNCX and once in awhile another song or two from him, but mostly the funny stuff. I have a number of his CD’s, he made 17 in all. May I suggest you try: Whatevershebringswesing, Joy of a Toy or his last release The Unfairground.

The Anniversary Battle Of Iwo Jima February19th

So why Iwo Jima? It was part of their island-hopping strategy to defeat Japan. Originally not part of the targeted plan is was the location of Iwo Jima between Japan and the Mariana Islands, where American long-range bombers were based that made this a must have piece of property. Although we might have miscalculated how the Imperial Japanese Army had fortified the island and had a dense network of bunkers, hidden artillery positions with underground tunnels.

OPINION: Happy Presidents Day – It’s The Economy Stupid

Has ever been a great economic president ever, most people could not name you one. In recent history we had the start of the digital revolution until Bill Clinton allowed Janet Reno to bring suit against Microsoft and started the demise of the dot com era. Richard Nixon took us off the gold standard and put us on a fiat money system. FDR crippled the long term growth of wealth and saddled us with the social security system.
