June 4, 2022 - On June 4, 1989, a man stood up to power, and made a difference. In Beijing, China, since April of that year, students had been gathering in Tiananmen Square, to protest the oppressive Chinese government. They marched for free speech. They demonstrated for democracy. They worked for change.

Did you go to Vacation Bible School when you were a kid? I imagine you did. Lots of great memories. The 2022 version of VBS is different, in many ways, from the ones I remember. But some things remain the same.

On May 31, 2010. Chris Haney passed away. Don’t know who that is? No reason you should. But you know his creation. In December, 1979, Chris was a young journalist in Canada. He and a friend decided to play a game of Scrabble, but discovered that some of the letter tiles were missing. So, instead, they created their own game. They called it Trivial Pursuit. It became the “hot” game of the ‘80’s and, to date, has sold over 100 million sets for over a billion dollars. Not trivial at all.

May 27, 2022 = Good Morning! It’s Friday, May 27.

This coming Monday, of course, is Memorial Day. A day set aside each year to remember those men and women in uniform who gave their lives to protect our freedom. Here in Shelby County, Texas there will be a Memorial Day event at 11AM at our Civic Center. I’ll be sharing some patriotic music for the ceremony and invite all our local readers to join us!

May 25, 2022 - Good Morning. It's Wednesday, May 25.

We are still reeling from the horrific news that came over the airwaves yesterday afternoon - a mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas.

There are no words.
But there are names.
Columbine. Sandy Hook. Virginia Tech. Santa Fe. Parkland.

There are no words.
But there are numbers.
Over a dozen mass school shootings in the last 20 years in America. 

And now we add Robb Elementary to the names.
And we add 19 children and 2 teachers to the numbers.
