Martial Arts Is A Family Affair

შინ-გუნდი

One of the best thing about the martial arts such as Taekwondo is the ability for fathers, mothers, children, grandchildren and other family members to train together. You develop a mutual interest you cannot replicate by sitting in the stands watching your children play baseball, soccer, სხვა. Besides training with all three of my kids and my wife, who trained

Happy Birthday, Kenneth!

თრეი-და-მე

My oldest son Kenneth will turn 18 this week. It is hard for me to believe he is a grown man already. It seems like five years ago he was a little guy running around and climbing on everything. When he was less than a year old, მას შეეძლო გამოეკიდო სავარჯიშო მანქანას და აეღო სათამაშოები

Happy Birthday, Caleb!

caleb-and-me-teaching

This week my youngest son Caleb turns 16. I can’t believe it has been 16 years since I saw and held him for the first time. Caleb was the baby and waited until he had a good meal at Red Lobster before making his appearance in the world. When he was ready though, he didn’t wait around. He was born 40 minutes

Happy Birthday Grandpa

ბაბუა-ელისი-1999 წ

Today would have been my maternal grandfather Gilbert P. Ellis’ 100th birthday. Grandpa Ellis only lived to 85 but he imparted 100 years worth of wisdom into the 32 years I knew him. I could write books about him but am going to focus today’s post on how he inspired me by refusing to grow old. ბაბუა ელისმა ფიზიკურად შეინარჩუნა

Streetcar Strike Mob Attacks Woman

სენტ-ლუი-ქუჩის მანქანა

I have always said the St. Louis Streetcar გაფიცვა 1900 was not the story of the evil streetcar companies exploiting the innocent workers. “The innocent workers” committed many deplorable acts during the streetcar strike. One of their most frequent tactics involved stripping woman in public who rode the streetcars during the strike. საოცრად, მათი მსხვერპლი ახალგაზრდები და მიმზიდველები იყვნენ
