ROOT: Looking in the magic mirror

There needs to be an awakening in this country. The first step to any kind of serious change is to put someone in charge that really believes that things need to change.....more>>

  • ROOT: If you aren’t paying attention you better start
    I’ve been sick all weekend and when I am sick I watch television and complain about being sick. This weekend was no exception.
  • ROOT: Our one true champion
    I was on my lunch hour not too long ago, maybe a month ago, and I was listening to one of these know-it-all nationally syndicated sports radio show hosts and he was responding to a call he got from a sports fan in Buffalo.
  • ROOT: When is enough enough?
    I am not a big horse racing fan but, like many people, I do like to watch the Kentucky Derby and then follow the winner of that race through the chase for the Triple Crown.
  • ROOT: Barack Obama for president
    Before I say anything I want to remind everyone that my political views are not the views of the Union-Sun & Journal and this is not an official endorsement by anyone other than me.
  •  ROOT: Picking your battles
    I was having a conversation a week or so ago with someone from the Vietnam generation.
  • ROOT: Colonel Sanders is my hero
    You are probably familiar with my bout with aging. Of course it is a bout I am losing but things have a way of changing your focus over time.
  •  ROOT: Old dog, new tricks
    Life looks different from the other side of the fence. When you are 17 or 18 years old you think your parents are babbling when they try and pass on the wisdom of the world to you.
  • ROOT: So nice when it works
    The first thing an egomaniac such as myself searches for is a public outlet for my opinions and stories.
  •  ROOT: Those who were great
    I was reading something that called Laurel And Hardy one of the greatest comedy teams that ever lived.
