About a week before my father died, I pledged to be more disciplined about blogging. It has now been just over seven weeks since his passing, and I thought it might be time to return to the hobby. But, I want to capture some bits and pieces in this format. I have found a way to capture an interview dad gave to Ball State. I linked to it before, but this version should stay up if Ball State removes it from its website.
Okay more later.
