Good morning and good coffee everybody! This morning just before recording the podcast I happen to catch a magical moment. It was only there for a very brief time, but it took me back to 1984 when I was a photographer for the school newspaper at college.

Good Morning and Good Coffee!  Have you ever met a political big-wig?  Most if not all have met those in local politics, but what about at the State or National level.  I've had the opportunity to see (not meet) three Presidents and walked in a parade beside a Governor, but now it is taking on a much more personal level (no I'm not running for anything), but a man I call a friend is...

Good Morning and Good Coffee!  I'm sure many of you have heard that a new mission to Mars has successfully landed on the Red Planet.  We've had previous missions to Mars taking pictures, testing the soil, and making tracks in the dirt, but what will they find that is different this time?  Well, according to photos that have come through my Facebook feed, it appears that there may be...
