I have been a college professor for 20 years now, and in that time I have had a wide range of students. From the 13-year-old to the 84-year-old (I think that was it). Most of my students fall into the age range of 18-25, and there seems to be one that that defines a lot…
The Grill Completed
So, after a couple weeks I finally have a grill that is complete. The store was able to order me a replacement lid. I did decide to use the grill with the hole in the lid a couple times and it worked really well, even with a hole in the lid. But the new lid…
Friends
Over my life I have had some really good friends. I hope we can all say that at about our lives. Everyone needs to have friends in their lives. I can still remember some of my friends from early childhood, elementary school, junior high, high school, college, and adult life. For the most part my…
It’s Complicated at One Life Church
This is another quick post about something that I think people should take the time to watch or listen to. I happened to be on Facebook the other day and a posting by my former church, One Life Church (formerly Trinity Church), popped up. I don’t see these very often, but I thought I would…
I love listening to music.
I love listening to music in the car, while I make breakfast, when doing yard work, riding my motorcycle. I enjoy concerts. I enjoy musicals. I enjoy a range of music and I have noticed that my tases have changed some over the years. When I was a kid, I listened mostly to what my…
The New Grill (The Saga Begins)
I grill dinner for our family in one way or another a couple times a week most of the time. Sometimes more and sometimes less. The last couple weeks the grill hasn’t been working as well as it had been. Not heating up nearly the same amount, and it didn’t look like one of the…
Evidence of God in My Life
As a Christ follower I know God is in my life. I have that assurance in my heart and mind that can’t be fully described. There is a wholeness and completeness that I know is because of Christ in my life. That is something that I can’t show someone. It isn’t tangible. But there have…
Books In Different Forms
I enjoy books. I like learning things from books. I gain enjoyment from reading books (well most of the time). I like re-reading books. I have read books most of my life. There have been times of heavy reading like when I was in junior high, and I read a lot (mostly Star Trek, Star…
The Toilet Repair
So, late last week I was in our basement when I heard noise. It wasn’t a good noise. It was the sound of water hitting the ceiling of the basement bathroom. Thankfully there is an access panel there, and I stuck my head up there and sure enough the toilet was leaking when it was…
Back Off Human Being, I’m a Physics Teacher
As the spring 2023 semester gets started, I thought I would write a little bit about what I do. As I mentioned last week I am a physics teacher. I currently teach at Scottsdale Community College (SCC), and as stated last week I have been a teacher for quite a while. I spent 13 years…
