Obviously, the results of such choices could be unfortunate. But … [Read more...]

Tony Alessandra, Ph.D. When I was in high school back in 1960's, everyone always divided themselves into self-contained, often exclusive, groups. These groups followed all the old clichés -- you had your greasers, your jocks, your nerds, your college prep kids, and your vocational kids -- and everyone was always careful to stay within their own group. Although I was technically in the athletic group (or jocks) and the college prep group, I always tried to go out of my way to get along with … [Read more...]

As we all know, our results are only as good as our plan. Mr. Shoaff taught me that it's not what happens that determines the major part of our future, because what happens, happens to us all.
