The Pack: August 2007
http://strengthofthewolf.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 21, 2007. To quote the great American philosopher, Neil Diamond:. But it don't sing and dance. And it don't walk". Why is it that we crave money so greatly? Perhaps this can be justified, but why is there such an urgency to have money as young as possible? After all, it's only money. What is it that they want? Is it the status? Is it the toys? Is it the power? Maybe it is all of these things, but will they really derive happiness and a sense of accomplishment from wealth? I work in an off...

The Pack: Winning and Losing and Remembering
http://strengthofthewolf.blogspot.com/2007/11/if-you-picked-up-newspaper-today-youll.html
Monday, November 19, 2007. Winning and Losing and Remembering. I choose not to elaborate on Lloyd Carr and his legacy; rather, I wish to look at today's coverage of an illustrious and controversial career in the context of our own lives and the legacy we leave to ourselves. Winning and Losing and Remembering. You don't believe me? I don't believe you. How many times have we said to ourselves "what if? Or "I should have"? Hello I just entered before I have to leave to the airport, it's been very nice to m...

The Pack: July 2007
http://strengthofthewolf.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 31, 2007. ARod, is $30 million too much? Too much for what? Like most of America's children, my dreams were shattered early. I'm not playing shortstop for the New York Yankees, nor am I quarterbacking in the Superbowl, nor did I hit the game winning three pointer to win March Madness. What is the value of a role model that does not use drugs, that does not cheat, that demonstrates class and integrity? What is the value of the college education for a kid that might have ended up pumping gas?

The Pack: Something different
http://strengthofthewolf.blogspot.com/2007/07/something-different.html
Monday, July 30, 2007. Starting a blog is something I would never do. However, life is much different than it has ever been before. In the spirit of challenging my own boundaries and trying new things, I present this public anthology of my thoughts. As a student in high school and in college, I cannot count how many times subjected to a conversation referencing Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book. Labels: Lets dance. or blog at least. Nice work, jon. August 5, 2007 at 9:29 AM. ARod, is $30 million too much?

The Pack: Life's simple pleasures...
http://strengthofthewolf.blogspot.com/2007/08/lifes-simple-pleasures.html
Sunday, August 5, 2007. I was in a department store today with friend. As we went to check out, the gentleman at the register inquired if we were in college. After we told him we had just graduated he replied, "College. Best years of your life." Way to put a damper on my Sunday, Old Man. Or the one after that? My excessive enjoyment from a Saturday afternoon at the ballpark sparked some self-reflection. Was this a sign that I was maturing? No Definitely not. I came to the conclusion that for as long ...

The Pack: October 2007
http://strengthofthewolf.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 22, 2007. You have to know when to hold 'em. Know when to fold 'em. As we grow older the answers to the most difficult questions seemingly come to us with greater ease. Yet, when it comes to risk, I'm not sure the deliberation process is any simpler or any clearer. When do you push your chips to the middle of the table? When do you go for it on fourth down? When do you tell the hitter to swing on a three ball - no strike count? How do we truly tell ourselves that what we have can be lost?

The Pack: September 2007
http://strengthofthewolf.blogspot.com/2007_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 18, 2007. The last couple of days have been a bit more brisk than usual. People have started wearing a light jacket to the office. I can nap on my living room couch without the air conditioner on. The baseball season only has a couple of weeks remaining. Autumn is upon us. There is always tomorrow, until one day there isn't. There is always the chance to fly here or fly there for the weekend, until one day there we have too much responsibility to do so. There is always the rand...When ...
