Do you remember Top Gun: Maverick’s climactic scene?As Maverick flew away from enemy territory, his F-14 clipped the roof of a building and lost its front landing gear. With the odds stacked against him, Maverick, and his co-pilot Rooster, engaged in an epic dogfight with two enemy jets. After some heart-stopping maneuvers, Maverick and Rooster managed to take out one of the jets, but the other one seemed to be chasing him down with no escape in sight. Maverick knew…

Happy New Year everyone. Can you believe it? Princes’ song is rattling around in my head, 1999 that was released in 1982. Whew - that seems like last week. We were on the cusp of Y2K when 1999 finally came around. Anyone younger than 30 likely remembers none of that non-event where everyone was waiting for a computer meltdown at midnight, and the world as we know it to disintegrate. Not to be though.

I was in the kitchen grabbing a bottle of water when I heard the thud, bam as if the house was shaking. Couldn’t be, could it? I looked out the kitchen window to the shared driveway with the neighbor and saw the headlights of his car as he maneuvered it into his usual parking space. He always turns his car around in the driveway facing outbound. We live on a very busy road, making it easier to pull out than back out. There have been times when it looked like he would…
