Evangelical (NOT conservative); married 35+ years; 3 adopted children from South America/Latin America; CFO; closing in on retirement; surfer; alpine skier; and last and not least, slogging through life trying to be a better person!!
Tough times not needed. Tariffs properly used in proven restraint are important. Random tariffs devastating. As a fractional CFO, I have a client in the sawmill/timber industry with international sales gone. I have a client working on marketing with major US companies/brands and down 30-40%. Sad.

Constituents to Chuck Grassley: "Are you bringing back that guy from El Salvador?"

Senior Citizen: “If I get an order to pay a ticket to pay $1200 and I just say ‘no’, does that stand up? Because he just got an order from the Supreme Court and he just said ‘screw it’”

“I’M PISSED!”

Isack Hadjar’s slow-speed spin into the wall at the second corner at the Australian GP was heartbreaking to watch.

As Hadjar trudged back through the paddock, he kept his helmet on and was still rubbing at his eyes.

The first person to meet him was Anthony Hamilton, Lewis’ dad.

It happened! The Norse gods were with me. I chose the right ski location and the right parking lot that the US ski team was using to practice in Are Sweden. I got my picture with the GOAT! Mickaela Shiffrin. 3rd that weekend but set all time leader in history for podium World Cup Alpine skiing.

Hoping 2025 is not what I saw so much of 2024 to be. Time for my backyard bluebirds to make up and move forward.

My Indiana Hoosiers at Notre Dame ... biggest game in their history.

My Notre Dame Fighting Irish ... MAYBE one of their top 100 "biggest games".

What team would you expect to possibly struggle BUT have a wild opportunity for history in the end?
