Along with many other people, I am very concerned about the exodus of so many solid teachers!  When I wear my “tinfoil hat,” I have the vision that the exodus is on purpose.  Why?  Because there is a small group of folks who want to change the USA and one way to change our nation […]

During this HOLY WEEK 2022, I wanted to take time to share with you the LAW OF THE TRADE-OFF.  I cannot think of a better example of a “trade-off” than what Jesus Christ did for the world.  To give up His life for us is THE symbol of TRADE-OFF. So, what is the Law of

Just a reminder and for the new “reader.”  From January 24, 1989 – December 21, 2021, I taught music in public / private schools.  Most of the time was at high school.  I loved it – until I got tired of not being allowed to be me, lack of due process (which includes facing your

Please.  Don’t leave me.  I know you rolled your eyes.  Spit-up what you are drinking.  Yet, I am going to be another voice for us to fight divisiveness. Just a reminder and for those who do not know. On July 3, 1989, I began my career as a high school music teacher.  On December 22,

Today is, February 19, 2022, I sit at my computer – jobless!  Difficult to believe that I am jobless.  Just a reminder and for those who do not know.  On December 22, 2021, I taught my last day of public high school music in California.  On October 15, 2021, the district administration gave me directives
