BIG BARBECUE

Ok, it wasn't a big barbecue.  In fact it was just me, Shalawn and Devin.  And that's how I like it.  Yesterday, I pulled my little platic BBQ table out of the attic and scrubbed it down.  Then I pulled the grill out from behind the garage where it sat uncovereved and unloved through a harsh winter.  I was [...]

WHAT’S THE ANSWER?

Yesterday in an article in the Gotham Gazette an interesting question was posed by author Mark Berkey-Gerard:  Can Fathering Be Taught?  My immediate response was "of course."  And I stand by that idea whole heartedly, however I think a more appropriate question is born from Mr. Berkey-Gerard's.  My question is: Why is it necessary to teach [...]
