A very young cowboy just discovered a terrific adventure show on TV. Running Wild With Bear Grylls. Comcast…channel 674. I won’t refer to him as wild man because he’s eminently skilled at what he does. But oh my…you ought to see the nature hazards that he takes people like Lindsey Vonn, Shaquille O’Oneill, Ben Stiller, […]

The tennis community lost a legend this week as Vicky Matarazzo passed away on November 20th. This is the story that appeared in Tennis Magazine’s Hero edition recently. When Vicky Matarazzo was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2010, she had simple instructions for her doctors: They needed to perform the necessary mastectomy quickly so she […]

A very young cowboy has waded this stretch of The South Platte River countless times. Nearly 100% of the time there are two seventeen inch rainbow trout swimming contentedly a foot downstream from my boots. Experts say it’s because our wading kicks up hundreds of little midges from the substrate and the fish nearly have […]

Some people are blessed with an innate sense of fashion. There are others not so gifted…they try to make up for it by thinking outside the box. Sometimes it works…you be the judge.

Skiers are chomping at the bit as the high country begins getting some sizable snowfall. Our neighbors must have left nearly fifty trash bags of leaves at the curb in the past three weeks. Yes, these leaves can be a hassle unless you’re just out for a stroll on a magnificent autumn afternoon.

Heaven knows the Syrian refugee problem is immense. You don’t have to tell this mother and her children.

Holy Schmole…now this is a golf swing! Tommy Morrissey sure has a knack for the game.

There was a box on our front porch this morning. At first we were hesitant to open it. My wife heard some scratching and thought it might have been a small puppy. It turns out that that owner could no longer care for this kitty and hoped we could find a home for it. Clancy […]

C’mon Lavar. Let’s get real. Everyone will soon forget that one of your sons was arrested in China for shoplifting. He’ll learn from this and move on. What’s more concerning is how you are making the family the baller version of The Kardashians. Please retract this statement as soon as possible. “He’s going to be […]

It’s all good. Even though most Denver Broncos fans realize that the guys in orange and blue are not worth watching this season, it’s not the end of the world. At least we have these incredible orange sunsets that soften the blow of such lackluster play.

Kudos to my wife. With Thanksgiving approaching, it’s very commendable that she would agree to have my first wife attend our ‘turkey day’ celebration. Marge really had no other options this year. A chain smoker since her teens, she has agreed to light up only on the back patio.

All around the country there were memorable tributes to our veterans this weekend in honor of Veteran’s Day. For a look at the sacrifices made by our servicemen and women, I highly recommend George W. Bush’s recent book Portraits of Courage. The former president is quite an artist with the highest regard for our veterans.

We are looking after one of our favorite dogs named Rocky this weekend. Love this guy even though he cut my lip while rough housing last night. This morning, I was reading the paper when he sauntered over. I said, ‘Rocky.’ The big Labrador looked up and winked.

Hannah Ahlers was one of the many people who went to Las Vegas to see a country music concert. You know the rest of the story and Hannah leaves behind husband Brian and their three children, Briannah, Brice, and Hailey. If you’d like to support the family, you can search online for the go fund […]

One certainly is justified in wondering who, in their right mind, would compare disasters like Katrina and Maria and try to diminish the damage that Puerto Rico sustained recently? Late night TV hosts must think they’ve died and entered heaven.

My wife was on the phone speaking to her sister who lives near Jerusalem. Vicki related this story and the difficult phone call she had to make last week. I’ll just paraphrase the call for you now. ‘Mrs. Rabinowitz’? ‘Yes.’ ‘This is Mrs. Buratti. We were so delighted to have Mortimer (her parrot) come over […]
