St. Louis Sports Observations
Been kind of quiet with my views on Twitter, so I thought I would share some of my thoughts on sports and more specifically St. Louis Sports. This is an exciting time for sports here in St. Louis. Gotta start with the NHL Playoffs and the St. Louis Blues. Today, they are up 2 games […]
Support
Yeah I know I haven’t written anything in a while. Life gets in the way. I also never write about asking for help. There are things that go on daily in our lives where we require the support of others. Not very often do we thank those that give us that support. I did this […]
I Don’t Want to be Normal
What is normal? Looking at a few dictionary definitions I think it means conforming to a standard, being average, or regular. I think normal is what you want as result of a medical test, not something you aspire to be. Is normal a range? Are having a wife, kids, friends, and a job normal? Is […]

My St. Louis Blues 2013 Season Preview

My St. Louis Cardinals Burton History Tree Thoughts
On Saturday September 8th of this year, Burton History Trees (1) did a presentation at UCB weekend (2) to members of the United Cardinal Bloggers. (3) I was immediately intrigued by the possibility of having something out there that showed every St. Louis Cardinals player in history on it. They asked for our help in […]
The Trees and People of New Jersey
On Friday November 9, 2012, me and some friends of mine took off for New Jersey to do some Superstorm Sandy relief work. Murray Pickard, Mike and Brad Rohman, and myself headed out in Mike’s Honda Pilot with a trailer attached borrowed from his brother. We loaded that trailer with chainsaws, wheel barrows, and other […]
I Need a New Family?
Let me start off by saying that I am thankful to God for the broken road I have traveled and I would never trade my wife and son for anyone or anything. People often wonder why they turn out the way they do. I wonder it quite a bit. Would things of been different if […]
1 Year Anniversary of Born Bleeding
Today, September 1, 2012, marks the one year anniversary of my first post (1) on Born Bleeding. When I started this blog a year ago, and after over 40 posts I have written, I would never have guessed all the things that happened this past year. While writing about the St. Louis Cardinals I got […]
