A Rainy Monday Afternoon In Chattanooga

This is the glass ceiling in the Erlanger Hospital Medical Mall during a rain storm. I’m here hanging out after a doctor’s appointment today.

Sunday Reflection – Helping Our Friends and Neighbors

There are so many people in need right now. With budget cuts to many social services and food banks, there are empty shelves and empty pockets these days. You would be surprised who you find in a food bank. Regardless, those are people who are our neighbors. Sometimes our friends have to seek help when things get tough. I believe that God wants all of us and especially those who follow him to help others in any way we can. That means giving time and talents and treasure. Things are going to be tough. We all have it in us to lend a helping hand.

Daily Prompt – No Bringing Back Dinosaurs, Not Even One!

Daily writing prompt
If you could bring back one dinosaur, which one would it be?

All it took was one Jurassic Park movie to make me realize that no dinosaurs should ever be brought back. Not even the “cute” ones because that is a slippery slope that we should never slide down. They are best studied from the safety of paleontology and science books. Dinosaurs should remain extinct. We do however have birds that are a descendant of the raptor.

To quote Ian Malcolm (Jeff Goldblum) from the first Jurassic Park movie, “Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.”

Something About Cuts To Public Media

I’ve said it before that cutting funding to NPR and PBS is a horrible thing. They are worth every penny in making our communities better, more informed, and connected. My local public media stations WTCI-PBS and WUTC-NPR in Chattanooga, Tennessee are vital to creating a culture where everyone can learn and grow. Without public media America is certainly not great.
