My family and I have a very small Christmas planned. Dinner and spending time with family and friends. Usually just taking the time to spend some quality time together and exchanging gifts. This year we are spending Christmas Eve volunteering at a friends charity who is serving up meals for the...

I had a friend who was an officer, he had to arrest his next door neighbors son. They were both very close, and the son was charged with vehicular manslaughter. The friendship never recovered, despite the fact that the son was in the wrong, and the friend knew that the officer was doing his job...

Wow, that's just insanity. And, might I ad, super gross if they were sharing sex toys, and/or the boyfriend.

I think that if it gets to the point that you have to track someone to find out, the relationship is probably dead in the water already, right?

As someone who works with troubled kids, and has for about 15 years, I think that kids coming from "broken" homes is NOW a myth. I think that at one point it was a very real thing, but today is seems to be more about oblivious parents, or parents that have no sense of responsibility, and pass...

People with extreme views, they always make the news, and it's easy to think that people are like that everywhere, but the truth is, the ones with good views, the nice people, they are out there too, they just don't get the coverage because it don't bring in ratings. Stuff like this is scary...

I like the idea of body cameras, but I think that their needs to be some serious discussion about confidentiality and social media. I think that if something "mysteriously" ends up on YouTube, there needs to be some serious action taken. Not everything should be for everyone viewing pleasure.

When I read statistics about women in college, and women and dating violence, or date rape, I get worried for my daughter. The world seems to be exceptionally challenging for women these days, and it does make me freak out sometimes. It's hard not to be overprotective, but you want them to be safe.

It's seriously mentally draining to be on constant alert all the time. I'm sure that at some point and time they focus on their partner, talk about their family and day, as well as other things.

Has anyone ever just had enough? Been tired of seeing someone get away with things for too damn long? Been pushed past their breaking point, and taken the law into their own hands? I know it gets overplayed and glorified on TV and the movies, but it does seem to happen now and then in real...

I stole food when I was a kid, so that my brother and I could eat. My parents didn't really have time for that, so I did what I had to do.

I think that some of this is just wishful thinking and propaganda. My father spends about 4-8 months a year in jail, due to various crimes, and he told us that they don't exactly announce what your crimes are, and if it wasn't high profile, then inmates are not typically going to know who you...

There are times when I will tell my daughter that I don't think a song is appropriate, or that I'd like her to avoid an artist, but mostly I just talk to her about my concerns and she talks to me about what she likes. The truth is you can't monitor every second of every day, and it's not healthy...

I think it's probably an age and responsibility thing. There are numerous studies that say America is safer in many ways than it was just 20-30 years ago, but I'm not sure how reliable that is. I mean, criminals aren't out there talking to pollers are they? At the end of the day, you have the...

I'd like to simply be remembered. Not just by my friends & family, but by others, for doing something great, or creating something great. I've had some lucky experiences in my life, like owning my own NWA Pro-Wrestling company, and writing a book, but at the end of the day I'd love to be known...
