Last Friday night I attended a high school football playoff game. It has been a very exciting football season.  Our school has only existed six years and has experienced must success both on and off the football field.  For six consecutive years we have been solidly beaten by the once only high school in Madison, […]

As a young person, like many others, I was obsessed many times. Maybe I still am.  I was often obsessed with the idea I had to have that particular new toy.  I probably didn’t get it.  Oh yes, more than once I was obsessed about some extraordinary girl in school.  We all have experienced obsessions […]
