The day before Thanksgiving, I was invited back at the White House and had the privilege to cover the President's remarks on the annual pardoning of the turkey. This year he didn't pardon one but two and their names are "Mac" & "Cheese." No this event had nothing to do with the debate on amnesty [...]
BACK TO SCHOOL: Yesterday, it was my honor to return to Malcolm Elementary to catch up with my all time favorite teacher - Mr. Walter. He was my K-5 PE teacher and he is ageless. For forty years he has taught PE and retiring next week. Days when I should have been sick and stayed [...]
Two weeks ago today as my family were asleep I got up early to watch TEAM USA take on the Russians in ice hockey during the Olympics. Due to NBC Sports electing again to show games via delay I knew they were playing 12 hours earlier and got up to watch it in real time. [...]
Over the years, I have been blessed to see some pretty amazing things and other than sitting at an inauguration watching the transfer of power, especially exchange of two different political parties one of my favorite things to witness is the transporting of an American President. In the past, I was honored to fly on [...]
On President's Day Weekend, I was born in our Nation's Capital on a cold Sunday, February morning in 1972. My mother worked at the U.S. Capitol Historical Society and Dad was still a young cop with the United States Capitol Police. Mom shared that she almost went into labor with me in the hallowed halls [...]
Today, at 41 years old and a month away from turning 42, I would like to share about 43. No, not my age but two class acts! Over the years, I have witnessed something early on and its something I hope to live and leave. Some things are taught but the best things are caught. [...]
Honestly, I was going to call this post "de ja vu." It is always a treat when you get to re-visit something special. Talk about a BLAST from the PAST! This past month was a whirlwind and I spoke twice in Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, Georgia and just returned this week from speaking 8x in [...]
Earlier this summer (June 2013), while speaking in Houston, TX I was able to connect with Hollywood actor and former "CHiPs" star, Erik Estrada. It is safe to say almost everyone loved "Ponch" back in the day. The girls wanted to date him and all the guys wanted to be like him. The last three [...]
The first week of May 2013, I was booked to speak at various venues and drove 3,000 miles in just under a week (alone). That is doing some serious driving! It was an honor to return to Columbus, GA and speak at Providence Baptist Church and this is second time in less than a year [...]
On March 18, 2013 it was my honor to return to Dallas, TX. Just last summer, I was invited to spend 12 glorious days in London, England with Lay Witnesses For Christ as Evangelism Chairman of 2012 Olympics outreach. It was a joy to serve alongside some of America's greatest athletes (past and present) and [...]
