The Death of 2 Long Time Friends

In late October, 2009, two long time friends suddenly died in a tragic and unnecessary  car accident while rushing back home from Hobby Airport along rain soaked Allen Parkway to retrieve documents which John O’Quinn (a well known Houston lawyer) had forgotten but needed before he left for an out of town mediation later that morning. My other friend, John’s [...]

To be great at anything is a choice.

Last night I was talking with my son and he reminded me of something I told him years and years ago: that to be great at anything is a choice. (And, unfortunately, that mediocrity, sneaks up when you are least expecting it and just takes over before you realize it has globed all over you, like you’re [...]

I’m Back! Fresh Starts and New Directions!

Hello World!! Yes, I am still alive. I have not truly deserted you and I actually missed talking to you (or maybe just to myself) on this thing the entire time I have been M.I.A. Unfortunately, for me at least, I was not off having some spendid time walking along some wonderful isolated, pristine beach [...]

I think it was Teddy Roosevelt who said…..

My failure to comment on this blog

I am discouraged by the blog because, somehow, it allows all kinds of spam messages. I don’t know how to get them off without deleting everyone. Right now I have 4,393 comments on my first post, mostly from drug manufactures. Does anyone know what I can do. This buries any real comment on my post [...]

Socratic dictum states “an unexamined life is not worth living”..How would he know?

This started out to be a kind of funny post, but then it grew serious. Maybe I will say it after all…and just go where it leads.
My initial thought was that I had experienced something of an epiphany. As of late, I have been realizing how many mean spirited people say angry and cutting things [...]

Still working on the Sam Kent post rewrite…

There will be 2 new posts. The first, the rewrite; the second will attach the orders, the long sought after transcript and articles about Judge Kent’s recent retribution. Stay tuned.

Revisions to Post on Judge Sam Kent in progress

Some feel that my earlier post on Judge Sam Kent was too kind: that I needed to expain how his abusive conduct and lies deeply hurt me emotinally as well as my reputation and practice….that is now a work in progress, and will be published soon.

I also joined facebook.

I cannot believe the world is getting so much smaller. Yet I see it, each and every single day. When people encouraged me to set up this blog, they also suggested that I join “Facebook.”  Frankly, I wasn’t sure why. Before a few days ago, I’d always  thought “Faacebook” was for college age kids, like my son and [...]

Thoughts I live by…

We’d worry far less about what other people think about us if we realized how little they do…..
