When the Cards Aren't Fair, Change the Game.
So I guess this will be part 2 of what I wrote last week. I didn't plan on a follow up blog, but the information below came across my reading eyes and it is too timely not to share. If you missed last week's blog, you can refresh, but I wrote about history repeating itself … Continue reading IT’S ALL BEEN DONE AGAIN
I might not be the best teacher that ever teached (ha), but let me share something with you that I have learned: nothing is new. It's all been done. These days, thanks to technology, everyone has a megaphone. It's all been done. It was the same when people figured out that they could draw on … Continue reading IT’S ALL BEEN DONE
I'm fascinated by history. When we are young, we are taught about dates, battles, power struggles and mass migration. Boring right? It matters less that we know JFK was murdered on November 22, 1963 instead what the hell happened next: his wife, with blood still on her clothes, stood next to VP Johnson as he … Continue reading PASSING THROUGH

We must shine light on history and not forget that the majority of it was created by normal everyday human beings like us. We live in a place where we can travel to the … Continue reading INDEPENDENCE AND DISTANCE
Milk is good for you. Learning about Milk is also good for you. I'm talking about Harvey Milk. This dude led a full life and fought for positive change. He served in the Navy, and there is even a ship named after him. I think having a ship named after you would be pretty badass. … Continue reading MILK IS GOOD FOR YOU
I love history. As I have written in past blogs, I am deeply amazed at how we all got to this point right now. YOU are reading these words. Perhaps you know me, or perhaps not (yes, I have subscribers now who I don't know....which is also very cool....thank you). If you think about our … Continue reading HISTORY HAS ITS TIME
Any teacher will tell you that there are stories. Many, many stories. Most times the stories are heartfelt, and innocent kid stuff. Some stories are hilarious, some are tragic, but all of them make great memories and great stories. Here's one that I haven't thought about in a long, long time.... Summer of 2001.

“Except for the people who were there that one day they discovered the polio vaccine, being part of history is rarely a good idea.
