I was still living in Concord, NC, yet I do not know why; maybe it was because I could ride bulls just outside of town, plus, I could practice riding in a town down the road in Dallas, NC.  Oddly enough, I was able to get entered in a bull riding in Creedmore, NC once… Read more

I know this is a stressful time for all of us; black lives being taken by evil or corrupt cops, much needed protests, rioting, looting and violence. People keep saying to choose a side, but God chose my side a long time ago: I have always been totally against racism, segregation and discrimination against the… Read more

I have always loved stock car racing, and of course, race cars! It is probably because my Daddy had a race car, and I got to see him go around the race track once in his American flag helmet when I was a kid; now when I say once, I mean he went around the… Read more

It was not easy being a 30 year-old freshman living in a college dorm at East Tennessee State University.  My first semester there I was in a room by myself, but I was relatively lonely.  The dorm room was small even for one person, and there was not much of a view.  The dorm room… Read more
