RSSWhy I love the Olympics
0We’re barely an hour into the 2008 Olympics opening ceremonies. What an amazing spectacular. It’s truly incredible what they’ve put together. I think the Olympics provide us with the perfect opportunity to remember that we’re all human, children of a loving Heavenly Father. They set the stage for bringing out the best in human triumph […]
Funny BYU memory
0On my flight last night to St. Louis where I’m attending a business conference, I read BYU Magazine (Summer 2008).

Best wishes, Mitt Romney
0I hate to say I saw it coming, even though I did. Our country just needs more time to ponder what it would mean to vote for Mitt Romney for president. I’m sure he’s got a great future ahead of him. After four or eight years of democratic reign, I suspect we’ll hear more from […]
