There are only a few issues out there that I am overly passionate about. Among the highest on my list are student loans and how the great increase in student loans are slowly eroding the very concept of The American Dream. It’s frightening.
The team at USA Today has been on the front line […]

By now it should be obvious that I’m a Smallville freak (not to be confused with a meteor freak). My story is simple: I bought Season 1 on DVD one day because it was selling for $20 and I had only ever heard good things about the show. I plowed through Season […]

Today’s Atlanticville had an article about “improving relations” between Monmouth University and its surrounding municipalities - namely Long Branch. I love Long Branch and I think some exciting and creative things are going on over there. I’m also a university alumnus who fought vociferously for students’ rights while an undergraduate. I consider […]

Over the last week, I’ve been researching new cars - I think it’s about time that I get a new one. My current 1999 Chevy Blazer has served me well for over five years now, but it’s breaking down slowly. I’ve spent some $6,000 keeping the truck on the road this year alone.
I’ve […]

At these annual meetings, various world leaders are permitted to come and speak before the assembly, including those who lead nations that […]

Yesterday afternoon I was driving back from a workshop in Southern New Jersey and I had the Giants game on in the truck. I was absolutely shocked that the Giants won! I thought for sure that they were going to have one of those seasons where they play great games but lose every […]

On Sunday, September 23rd, over 110 undergraduates and more than a dozen alumni volunteers from Sigma Pi Fraternity gathered on the campus of Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey. These undergraduates represented some 37% of the total undergraduates in the New Jersey Province of Sigma Pi Fraternity.
The purpose of the annual fall workshop is […]

The Daily Record printed an article yesterday that talked about the possibility that up to 25% of the protected land up in the Highlands area of the state may be up for development. For those of you that don’t know, the Highlands are comprised of North and Northwest New Jersey. It’s a beautiful […]

As most of you know, I’ve been an Adjunct Professor for 3 weeks. At this point, the job is a whole lot of fun and really something that I can seem myself doing well into the future. I will repeat what I said in a previous post about the job - it takes […]

If there is a bigger moron out there besides OJ Simpson, someone please let me know. Here is a man who killed his former wife and her boyfriend in cold blood and combined his skin color and his money to get out of a conviction. Ever since then, he’s not laid low like […]
