Me, my wife, and two of our friends headed to Vegas for a couple days and on the way back we took some group shots because we are awesome.
War is Peace
"History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again."
-Maya Angelou
I believe that if we learn our history, successes and failures alike, then we may use these lessons to make a world in which we can exist equally, without wars and suffering. As a history teacher, I believe it is my duty to be an instrument in this journey to a greater world.
This blog will have daily historical events linked to that day. In addition, I will post various other tidbits of information that I think are worth sharing. This includes news events, music, and issues regarding education, or other social issues.
Feel free to formspring me, message me, give me suggestions or criticisms.
Thanks for reading

"A true conservationist is a man who knows that the world is not given by his fathers, but borrowed from his children."

Of Woman Born by Adrienne Rich
Adrienne Rich’s words from 1977 are still relevant today. R.I.P. Adrienne Rich (1929-2012)
Beverly Hillbillies with Flatt & Scruggs. Skip to 2:25 to see them work their magic. Mumford & Sons ain’t got shit on this.
R.I.P. Earl Scruggs (1924-2012). You truly were a legend. I hope you and Ira are back making sweet music in the Big Rock Candy Mountain. Bluegrass music lost a legend today.
In honor of World Water Day. Over 1.1 billion humans lack access to safe drinking water. This is a global crisis.

1920’s Men’s Haircuts
Check out my girlfriend’s blog for all your beauty and fashion needs, especially if you are into the historical side of fashion.
I’m in love with men’s haircuts!!!
My favorite is the way men wore their hair in the 1920’s, influenced by traditional military haircuts these men looked sharp next to their flapper bobbed female counterparts
I try to keep my man Scott’s hair tight on the sides and long on top, just the way a good men’s haircut should be!
Here’s a good inspiration pic from that cutie cutie Michael Pitt!
