Bulgaria’s Abandoned Children
Those who know me would probably tell you I’m not exactly a humanitarian. I rarely look past the issues and thoughts of my own life and family, so the plight of others will often fall on deaf ears. However, there is one specific subset of humanitarianism that weighs heavy on my heart and that is…

Abortion? Should it be our decision?
Yesterday, I found a video on my friend’s, sister’s Facebook page about a woman who was the intended victim of an abortion. At seven and a half months, her mother went to an abortion clinic, I believe, here in the US and was to have her pregnancy terminated via a saline abortion. While I don’t…

Immigration proceedings and Parkersburg,WV!
Okay, so I recently received a “Notice of Action” from the USCIS informing me that was required to travel to Charleston, WV for “biometrics” appointment on Thursday, June 3, 2010. What’s a biometrics appointment? In a nutshell, it’s a finger print and mug shot. LOL! I was asked countless times why I couldn’t have done…

Child abuse – WHY?
It’s not often that my writings are about anything other than bowling or web development. However, this is one of those writings where I just feel like I need to put forth my opinion. Whilst checking my Facebook updates, I noticed a posting about a movie that was made in New Zealand called boy. So,…
