There is no substitute for good health. I kind of started to take getting out of bed each morning for granted. I used to pause a bit and be more thankful. I’ve got to get back to that feeling to start the day.

Anyone who tries to substitute turkey bacon for real bacon should be arrested and tried for fraud.

People try to substitute a lot of things in place of love.

My basement is a substitute for an art studio.

Substituting one addiction with another usually isn’t a wise move. But I guess it’s better than adding one on top of another.

Sometimes against better judgement, I hit the publish button anyway.

With a lifetime and a half in the Newspaper industry I'm preparing for my retirement career as an Artist, Writer, Photographer and Video content provider. I'm a proud father of two wonderful children and I'm still married to the first girl I fell in love with and probably only one that would have me.
