As always, it is a busy weekend at our church. My wife and I attend the Saturday service at 5pm at Holy Cross Lutheran in Fort Wayne and it was graduation day for the 8th graders from the school. The pastor delivering the message, Pastor Tom Ahlersmeyer talked about...
We have now officially been in our home a full year. This we expect to be our last move. It's the 3rd or 4th place Kathy and I have called home since we married in 2001. We started in her house. No, I wasn't homeless, I was back in town helping my Mom prepare to...
We are going to step back in time a few days. It's Sunday afternoon. This is the day that I write several articles for this website. But I have a slight problem. The time I was going to be doing a bunch of writing, I got a phone call and had to stop. We needed...

We have so many ways to "talk" to someone these days. Personal communication, not advertising type of stuff. I'm curious, which ones do you use and why? When I was a teenager, I could make a phone call on a landline phone. I was there when the switch to cordless...
Besides writing about media, marketing and all that stuff, today I'm going to dip into the personal side of ScLoHo. As the legend goes, a few years ago my wife received a gift from her sister. It was this stand up doll that she probably picked up at a garage sale and...
