Let's Use our Resources where it will Help our Children by David Ravenwood 5/18/2013 10:31:14 AM
Do we really want to spend as much as $500 billion dollars to go to Mars? I saw a special on TV that said it would cost that much--for just one mission. And how much more for a permanent station there? From what we can tell, Mars is a lifeless planet... more

Disrespect your Teacher and get your 15 minutes of Fame by David Ravenwood 5/12/2013 10:19:15 AM
If people who haven't taught before don't understand why the teacher shortage is getting worse, they should get it now. The young man in the Duncanville ISD might have had a valid point. Maybe his teacher does give out too many packets and doesn't en... more

Congress Takes Care of Itself First Again by David Ravenwood 5/4/2013 12:49:42 PM
Congress again acted like spoiled brats. Despite the fact that 90% of the public wants background checks for people who want to buy guns at gun shows, Congress didn't vote for it. Too much gridlock. But when the budget cuts reduced funding for air tr... more

Looking out for Number One instead of Protecting our Children by David Ravenwood 4/20/2013 6:37:10 AM
During this crazy week, the unsuccessful gun legislation didn't get much attention. It doesn't make any sense to me. The NRA keeps touting the second amendment. They also say they are for keeping guns out of the hands of irresponsible people. This bi... more

Healthy Maxx by DeAnn Melton 4/17/2013 2:27:16 PM
We have made a change to Maxx's diet and he is responding beautifully. I was advised to add hay pellets to his diet because of his age. The thought is older horses will digest and get more nutrients if pellets are added. I personally didn't know if... more

Josh Hamilton is Ungrateful by David Ravenwood 4/6/2013 1:12:28 PM
Professional baseball player, Josh Hamilton, made a lot of people mad when he said Dallas, Texas was a football town. He is probably right. But I think he's being ungrateful when he says that DFW isn't a baseball town. Evidently he has forgotten just... more

Who can we depend on? by David Ravenwood 3/24/2013 12:10:23 PM
Just when we think we can depend on some thing or someone, we get let down. That ever happen to you? The church I've attended for over 23 years is changing. The people in charge make decisions that don't seem to follow common sense--at least it seems... more
