02 Jun Let’s Go Bowling!
This past Sunday evening, I had the opportunity to go bowling with my Sunday school class. It was chaos! I teach a group of 20 & 30 year olds at church and we made this a family event with the little ones bowling with us....

26 May Tales of a Super Marriage…
For years, I have said that my wife is my Lois and I am her Clark. (An obvious Superman reference for this SuperFan.) In recent years, DC Comics undid years of story and continuity by doing away with that relationship. I was among the first...
14 May Socially Acceptable Bingeing
Somewhere along the way, it became socially acceptable to BINGE. Now, I don’t mean BINGE drinking or even BINGE eating. I am referring to a new type of BINGEING. Today, it is all about BINGE watching. Netflix and other streaming services have led us to a new type of television...
06 May Do or Do Not…
Monday was Star Wars Day. (You know, May the 4th be with you.) I have loved Star Wars since I was a kid. In fact, I have seen every Star Wars film in the theater since the original showed up in 1977. I was just...
28 Apr Taking My Daughter on the Trail…

16 Mar The Power of Kicking & Punching
It seems like a million years ago, but really it was only 2006. My son had begun training at Impact Martial Arts of Springdale at what was then called the All-Star Arena. As long as he could communicate, he had told us that he wanted...
09 Mar Who’s That Old Man?
I had a moment this past weekend while I was working out at a Black Belt training in Fayetteville with Grand Master Scott McNeely. It was a fantastic experience with incredible instruction. But as I looked around on Saturday morning, I realized something. I was...
02 Mar Running Out of Steam…
This morning, I thought I was going to die. No. I wasn't in a car wreck or even a near miss. I just went to my cardio kickboxing class. Now, you may think, "Somebody must have gotten overly excited and kicked him." Nope. No one...
