I know it’s not a popular take, but I am not a fan of the two-party system. I tend to vote for whoever I want, not whoever you or the majority of folks want. I agree that it is a better system than most, at least we have a couple of options, rather than being forced to bend a knee to a king, queen, or dictator. Voting is an honor and privilege. Even though things might not go your way, voting is crucial for democracy. That being said, there are more than two types of people in the U.S. I am n...

I handled that better than I thought… For the past week, or what seemed like five years, my wife was in Michigan for a work conference. It was a different type of week because I had more alone time with the kids. Which was great! Instead of them venting to mom, I got to hear all of the details. I was responsible for every dinner and getting them to school on time with or without the newspaper deadline. My sons took it pretty well, though they struggled with the idea of her leaving. If you k...
