Whatever Flips Your Waffle - Mark Domeier
Think back to when you started your career. Did you have training? An internship, perhaps? Or did you have to learn skills as you went?
Getting ready to enter a career is such an important time in life. When you have decided how you want to spend your working years, there is much to prepare...
My best friend from high school texted me last fall - He had suffered a heart attack in August.
Wait. He what? When it happened, we were both still 50. I’ve moved up a number and he’s closing in.
But still, what? It turns out he was having stents put in for some clogged arteries and...
It’s no secret that I’m not a big fan of the current occupant of the White House. However, amidst his deluge of cut and burn tactics early in this term of office, I hold out some hope for a very positive result.

When I started announcing sporting events, I had a microphone and a roster. I soon realized that having a pen with which to write notes and pronunciations of names was imperative. Adding a clipboard for football games, where I need to go down to the field pregame, was the next step.
And now I’...
School bus drivers are saints.
Of all the jobs in a school, this one might be the most underappreciated. It’s also increasingly difficult to find people who have life schedules that allow them to drive, not only for morning pick-up and afternoon drop-off, but also at the spur of the moment if...
There is a wellness initiative at school that involves doing activities to reach a Bingo on a card we received. As I scanned the card, wondering if I could/would do any of these, I spotted one that said, “Have a dance party at home for 15 minutes or more.”
Hmm, I wonder if Michelle wants to...
I was listening to a podcast recently, and the guest said, “You know, back when being a nerd wasn’t cool.” (The podcast was about comic books.)
