Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there, especially to mine. I may be nearing 40, but I still need his influence as a major role model and his wise counsel in my life.

Thank you, Dad!

May 4, 1974: Tornado-Ravaged Town

This is an example of outstanding television journalism, which seems to be in short supply anymore. This is a 12-minute documentary piece reported by the late Harry Reasoner. It looks at the amazing spirit of recovery, one month after the devastating tornado of April 3, 1974 in Xenia, Ohio.

Though I did not live there then, I can attest to the fact that same spirit came back in 2000, when another twister caused heavy damage in town. People picked themselves up, dusted themselves off, went on, and rebuilt.

The old bumper sticker slogan is still relevant. XENIA LIVES!

This Isn't About Hate

Once again, the Dayton Daily News does a fine job of missing the point of a story.

Why Is There So Much Hate for Runaway Mom?

I have criticized Tiffany Tehan, but I don't hate her in any way. It is her actions with which I have a problem. She abandoned her husband and baby to run off to Florida with some guy. She abandoned her responsibilities, and the lame excuses she's offered just don't cut it. There is no excuse for what she did.

Hate is getting to be an overused word. Some people throw it around just as they would the race card: recklessly, irresponsibly, and without merit. One would hope the writers at the Dayton Daily News would be more careful with their choice of words. Then again, I may be asking too much.
