By Del Duduit I rise to my feet when our National Anthem is played. Sadly, some players in the National Football League do not.

However, I don't understand protesting the very… Continue reading Stand for our National Anthem

Are You Ready For Some Football?
By Del Duduit It’s that time of the year again. It’s time for many grown men, and a lot of women, to disappear on Monday nights, Thursday nights and all day Sunday. It’s a bizarre phenomenon which takes place each fall and runs into early February. It can transform a quiet and subdued person into… Continue reading Are You Ready For Some Football?

Then it was… Continue reading Surround Yourself with Good People

What an Impact a Smile Can Have
By Del Duduit Having something infectious isn’t always a bad thing. Now that I have your attention I’ll explain. There are some things that attract people.

It might be popularity or an influential… Continue reading What an Impact a Smile Can Have
By the Dawn’s Early Light
By Del Duduit Just the other day, Angie and I were watching Watters’ World on Fox News. He does these on-the-street interviews where questions are asked of ordinary citizens. On this particular episode, he asked students at Arizona State University questions from the citizenship test – the same one immigrants must pass in order to… Continue reading By the Dawn’s Early Light
