Emma Jo is a Star

May5

And, I mean that in terms of her being a baring point for me.

When you look at your own child and marvel at how brilliant God is, life offers nothing but the best perspective.

Following is a link to a website featuring Emma Jo’s recent seventh Birthday party.

Wow… I love being a Dad. And, no man should ever have to suffer life without daughters.

Peace be to my Brothers and Sisters.

I admit it, I’m a fan and I just stumbled on to your blog all of 5 minutes ago. Dad of almost three, addicted to great people (although we’re all gross), great ideas and lover of grace. I need to be in the Cork Network. Brian you need to be on Twitter. http://www.twitter.com/stevensalter

Thanks Steven. And, welcome here.

I am certainly fortunate to be surrounded by people that inspire me daily. There will never be any doubt where my heart, mind or concerns are the day of any given post.

What drives Mr. Salter? That raison d’etre?

meanwhile, I have long been intrigued by Twitter. An investigation is underway.

brian, some say suffering is to have daughters… or at least an impending suffering that comes with adolescence. as for now, i welcome any suffering if it is attached to being a father of two of the most beautiful women in the world!
upon meeting your sweet daughters, i could see that any trial that comes your way is minute in comparison to the love that you have for them.

what’s the pool temp?

Daughters, say I, define unconditional love.

What’s All This About?

"What am I looking at?", you might wonder.

Lots of stuff.

Meanwhile, here, I discuss events, people and things in our world - and, my (hardly simplistic, albeit inarticulate) views around them.

You'll also learn things about, well, things, like people you need to know about, and information about companies you can't find anywhere else.

So, while I harangue the public in my not so gentle way, you will discover that I am fascinated by all things arcane, curious about those whom appear religious, love music, dabble in politics, loathe the media, value education, still think I am an athlete, and might offer a recipe.

All the while, striving mightily, and daily, to remain a prudent and optimistic gentleman - and, authentic.
