BB King Plan


About 15 years ago I had the privilege of getting to see BB King live from the 4th row center of the Oklahoma City Civic Center.  WOW – you can pick up a lot from being that close!  Sadly, he passed away four years ago. But his legacy is one that still impacts us all today.

Prosperity for Some

You’ve probably heard, either through tweets from a certain President or in the press, that the U.S. economy is humming along at a healthy pace.  Stock indices are breaching record highs, unemployment statistics are near record lows, and the economy is growing at nearly a 3% annualized pace.  

Sounds great, right? I mean, for all intents and purposes, American workers should be happy with their newfound prosperity...

I think you see the “BUT” that is coming. 

Marble for Dale Carnegie Days

The hunt for Earth-like planets continues! This fascinating article I came across discusses how scientists are focusing their search for life on planets that, like ours, happen to be close enough to their sun that liquid water can form.  

But now, based on computer simulations at Harvard University, scientists are beginning to realize that some of those planets may be almost all water and no land.

End of Life Decisions

“There is a big walnut tree by a pond near Middleburg, OK where I want to be chained if my mind goes.  Chained so I won’t wander off and have some well-intended do-gooder try and “help” me.  Leave me there with love so I can go on my spirit journey and not die in a warehouse for old people.”
