Normally I can always find something I could disagree with, but this time around I must totally agree with you!<br />I absolutely dread the upcoming months and next election. <br />It will not be pretty and the consequences will change our country as we know it. <br />Maybe, just maybe, it will be a wake-up call for our county. Let's just hope it won't be too late. I also hope to read more of your thoughts and observations as the year unfolds.Anneliesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02269861974861654774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5439938886895118276.post-77841699179793981782022-02-20T10:38:06.984-08:002022-02-20T10:38:06.984-08:00I am so sorry to read about coach Bell's passi...I am so sorry to read about coach Bell's passing, knowing how much he meant to you!

I will never forget the nights when I got up at 2 am and the lights downstairs would be on and he was reading a book. I have never seen anyone who loved reading more than our grandson. He was so pleased when he discovered that one of my favorite books as a child was "The Count of Monte Cristo". He was reading it at the time and he was astounded that his grandmother had read it as well. Thanks for posting this. It brightened my Sunday. ♥♥♥Anneliesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02269861974861654774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5439938886895118276.post-20520634487126785132021-02-02T08:26:31.099-08:002021-02-02T08:26:31.099-08:00Hey there Professor!

This cup is never drunk. Some may find it comforting to set places for their loved ones this Thanksgiving in their memory and with the assurance they will always be with us. Many seats are empty this year but none as acute as with the loss of a child. Thank you for having the courage to speak of the loss of Gehrig and sharing his gifts to the world for those who never had an opportunity to meet him. We must never take for granted the blessings we have been graced of our sons and daughters. Peace be with you and your family.

I took your class in 2011 and I have been somewhere in the center ever since and was feeling isolated by the polarization of our country.

When I took your Macroeconomics class at VC, much of what you tried to teach me didn't fully "sink in" until after our class had ended. For your sanity's sake, I hope those new students of yours learn much faster than I did! Thanks for posting these blogs now and again.
