It’s almost June 6th, the anniversary of D-Day. For the last several years on this morning I’ve watched at least the first thirty minutes of the incredible movie, Saving Private Ryan, as my sincere but insufficient act of remembrance. My parents were married in...
There are many difficult, weighty issues confronting us this Memorial Day Weekend in 2026, but I’m going to begin the summer with three unconnected, much lighter personal observations which won’t take long and which probably won’t mean much to anyone else…but here...
I don’t know about you, but I badly need an Attitude Adjustment. Everything just seems to be screwed up, from the state of the World in general, to the deep divisions within our country, to I can’t clean my car's windshield at our Shell station anymore because someone...
I’m generally a conservative-libertarian person of faith. On most issues you’ll find me in the middle of a square roughly defined by Ronald Reagan, Thomas Sowell, Charlie Kirk and Michael Youssef. I was so energized after the 2024 election, as were most friends and...

Given my personal history with the Soviet Union, Russia and Ukraine, starting in 1969 as a graduate student and then ministry in Kyiv in 1991 and running real estate offices in both capital cities in the exciting days of 1991-2013, I am often asked what we should now...
