Maybe I should entitle this “who will be the biggest bully?” But then, no that wouldn’t be quite fair, after all some of these candidates really believe in themselves.

Changes…

As Usual
So I need to start this off with a "warning" this blog entry may offend you. Please keep in mind that if it does, it is okay to have differing opinions. So, if need be, let's "agree to disagree." Somewhere in the past 30 plus years a very interesting culture shift began to happen here …
