Last night I had the opportunity to speak at a local high school. They have an annual concert titled Music for Hope that raises money for ALS and the American Cancer Society. It started after one of the band parents was diagnosed with ALS.
It felt good to advocate and to thank everyone for...
The skies have been grey most days for days on end. Nightly on the news we have seen entire states under a deluge of rain, flooding homes by the thousand. Our home in the hills is well above the swollen Murray River, but the relentless rain and sheets of grey cloud have created a fitting...

Oh, I think a band will be here next week, after PZ gets back! Heard rumors about some kind of southern rock...
