Indulge me for a moment. I’ve been stewing on this idea for awhile, and I’m not exactly sure how it’ll pan out. Fiction writers talk about pantsers vs. plotters.

A Nod to Goats
I saw a post saying that it’s been 28 years since Kobe and MJ faced off for their first game. MJ was a dominant force at that time. It was 1997. Remember the streak? 1991, 92, 93 NBA championships.

A Legacy: George Ogle
Have you ever heard of him? Me neither. In 2022, I went to Ireland. For half a day, I walked through St. Patricks Cathedral and hung out at the grounds. One thing that struck me — just how many sculptures and art pieces were in that cathedral. The statues were so detailed, so intricate, soContinue reading “A Legacy: George Ogle”
A Tidbit on Vision
“If your vision is for a year, plant wheat. If your vision is for a decade, plant trees. If your vision is for a lifetime, plant people.” – Chinese Proverb Steve Jobs had a vision to fit a thousand songs in your pocket.
