That… Which Matters Most

  • Do You Like Aquarium Fish?

    I had an acquaintance back in seminary who was always, and I mean always, thinking outside of the box. He told me one day that he spent time thinking of ways to break the ice during parties. He hated regular small talk, as do I. He came up with a… Listen ⇢

  • Engineering Marvel

    The hours of fun I had with my boys and these tracks when they were much younger. When it came to Thomas the Tank Engine, one more pack of tracks from the store was always a must. If you have the track, take care of it. It lasts forever if… Listen ⇢
