MAKING LEMONADE

Hunter Moore is just like any other teen athlete. He loves to play sports, made the varsity team, and doesn’t mind throwing up a few gym selfies on his Instagram.

“It’s all genetics, bro,” he says laughingly while pumping his nearly 20-inch bicep. The genetics, in Moore’s case, is Dystonic Cerebral Palsy from a stroke he suffered as an infant that left him partially paralyzed on his left side.

Now, he’s a competitor in the Professional Natural Bodybuilding Association. Listen to this episode for the whole story.

VALENTINE’S DAY A HOLIDAY AGAINST ALL ODDS

I am not a fan of Valentine’s Day. Don’t get me wrong, I am not an anti-love guy. I love Lisa, and I even like the creativity of getting things for her to show my love. I am also all about capitalism and marketing – which, let’s be honest, is what Valentine’s Day is all about.

What I struggle with is the guilt laid mostly on men to arbitrarily spend money on their significant other. Sure, a handcrafted gift is admirable, but rarely is it as appreciated as a night out, a store-bought gift, or some other more traditional offering.
