The Golden Rule of networking is simply this...All things being equal,
people will do business with and refer business to
those people they know, like and trust.

New Bad Judge of the Year Nominee: Texas Judge R. H. Wallace Jr.
A pregnant Texas woman is being kept alive by John Peter Smith Hospital, in compliance with Texas law, until her baby is viable. Her husband and family are pushing for removal of life support, which would likely terminate the lives of Ms. Munoz and her 22-week old preborn child. The husband/father seems concerned that the baby may have developed abnormalities in the weeks since his wife has been hospitalized following a cardiac arrest. Wallace essentially declared the woman dead, not subject to Texas law, and shamelessly noted that the preborn child had no rights, because Ms. Munoz still would have the legal right to abort her child. As a pro-lifer, my position is clear: both the disabled mother and her preborn child have an unalienable right to life.
Christie Is Annoying Me
Gov. Christie is essentially arguing that some public schools should add a third meal (dinner) for low-income household children. He also wants a longer school day/year (to which the teacher union says: "Show me the money....") Yet even more idiotic is the response, "Do we really need these reforms? Don't we already have one of the best school systems in the country?"
I'm disappointed in that it is a parent's responsibility, not the taxpayer's, to feed their children, in a country where 1 in 5 qualifies for food stamps. Second, although I'm sympathetic to the governor's reforms to toughen the school system, I would prefer to see more competition in the education market. Somehow Christie is seeing expansive domestic policy, versus the free market, as a good thing

Kenny Rogers, "Lady". One of Lionel Richie's best songs before he broke out as a solo act in the 1980's. It's also my favorite Rogers' hit, at a time where he was at a pinnacle of his success
