Star Wars Is Still Good…In Small Doses

Yesterday, I took the entire day to watch all 6 “major” Star Wars movies (my wife pointed out to me that I did not watch them all since I did not watch the Ewok movie, but I did watch episodes 1-6).  This sounded like an awesome way to spend a day, but about the time [...]

“Hey God…It’s Me, David…Are You There?”

“Welcome to therapy, Mr. McDowell,”  you say.
