The old saying goes that there are no small parts, only small actors. I believe that, and have tried to impress that feeling in my daughter as she enters into a foreign world – her first school musical.
I have experience in this world, having performed in three school plays during my time at Archbishop Ryan [...]]]></description>

Goodbye, old fiend.
The opportunity was just too delicious. And so, 2009 decided that it had one more trick up its sleeve before a year that I would just as soon forget left for good.
It wasn’t a fun year, but I’m sure that I’m not alone in that assessment. After losing my job just before Christmas [...]]]></description>

Somewhere in the halls of the Criminal Justice Center, somebody else was wearing my belt. It might not even have been his fault, but I was the one holding up my pants for the rest of the day. Welcome to jury duty.
I began to dread the prospect of jury duty from the moment I received [...]]]></description>

You can always tell when the new television season begins from the return of the tried and true TV character: stupid dad.

The summer is ending, and my daughter has begun her yearly excitement at the prospect of her impending birthday. She watches each commercial and scours the magazines, looking for yet another present to suggest to her parents. Already, I’ve been told that we are allowed to buy three different types of cake. Which one, thankfully, [...]]]></description>
