I loved Wham! I loved George Michael. But, I didn’t really know much about Andrew Ridgely. I hadn’t focused on him during my Wham! fandom phase. Actually, that phase has yet to end. On a whim, I decided to watch the Wham! documentary on Netflix, and I was […]
I love working out. I often begrudgingly wake up early to go work out. I either go for a 60-minute walk or 45 minutes on the elliptical. Once I’m working out, I get pumped and jazzed. Sometimes working out longer than originally intented. Why do I get so […]

I can be talking about anything. Bring there more for our kids. Creating better reports at work. Standing up to the bullies at both the watercooler and at the local bar. Silence allows contempt and misinformation to take hold. Not allowing a group of self-righteous know-it-alls dictate (incorrectly […]
