A Young Lady’s Gift
For the past couple months I had planned on writing something for this Christmas weekend. I thought I might come up with something interesting and reflective, the kind of words that make ya think and feel good about yourself when that Christmas spirit softens us all a little bit.
But I’m not going to. The reason is a video I’d like you to watch in a moment.
My brother-in-law and sister’s niece Katie is a super gifted singer. She’s only in 7th grade yet just won a singing competition for performers across Southwestern Pennsylvania. In addition to a cash prize, Katie will be performing at First Night, a huge celebration in the city of Pittsburgh.
Her mom told me that the competition was open to boys and girls from 6th-12th grade. And Katie beat ’em all! Everyone’s really proud of her and if you watch this video you’ll see why.
I hope every one of you have a fantastic weekend with your family and friends.
What’s your favorite Christmas song?
Life. Culture. Education.
Life as Pop Culture Professor Clay Morgan
In The Matrix, Morpheus tells Neo he can take the blue pill and go on believing whatever he wants to believe. Or he can take the red pill to stay in Wonderland and find out how deep the rabbit hole goes.
This is a red pill type site that provides information in an entertaining way. It’s about clear thinking and good writing. It’s about finding meaning amidst the absurd. It’s about humor and truth.
I’m a writer / speaker who teaches history and political courses at a couple of local colleges. Where is local, you say? Well, that would be Wonderland of course.
On topics ranging from pop culture to the meaning of life, my brain’s always poppin’. Take the red pill and unplug.
