InvestigateTV+ picked up on our story about the Every Kid Is A Hero Foundation and I got word that it ran in around 25 different cities yesterday. The video shows some highlights of the story. I am hoping the comics we make for these kids will inspire them the way comics have always inspired me.

We got to see some of our heroes today! The Every Kid Is A Hero Foundation presented Sumner County Schools with a check for $12,000 that was raised at this year’s event. The funds will be split among all high school CDC classes to provide extra resources for students.

Happy Teacher Appreciation Week! I may not be able to speak with the historical authority of some of my history heroes like @bradmeltzer.com and @joshmensch.bsky.social, but I think I got this question right! 😁 Full interview here: youtu.be/S9drkSDy4Wg?...

It was an honor to be featured on the Good Pour podcast for Teacher Appreciation Week. If you would like to hear about my teaching career and some of my career adventures, check it out here: youtu.be/S9drkSDy4Wg?...

If you need some good laughs to wrap up a Monday night of doomscrolling, head on over to the Department of Education’s Facebook page and read the comments on their…heartfelt…acknowledgement of Teacher Appreciation Week. It is quite entertaining.

I don’t know about any of you other teachers, but I am exhausted this week! The number of arguments I have had with my students about one gorilla being able to fight 100 men has been off the charts!

I am sure this will work out fine and absolutely nothing horrible will happen here.

Every time I see a new interview with Trump, this is what I am thinking in my head.

Found this at Wal-mart today and about lost my mind. Can’t believe this even exists, but I am very happy it does!

You never know what you are going to get when you teach AP students. Sometimes you get happy students that make 5’s on the AP test. Sometimes, you get pink flags with your face printed on it. 🤷🏻‍♂️😂

Key quote: "This is what the media does, they take anonymous sources from disgruntled former employees, and then they try to slash and burn people, ruin their reputation. It's not going to work with me," he said. I mean, c’mon…he has already ruined his own reputation! He doesn’t need the media!

Today, we celebrate the most important event in human history. The empty tomb. Jesus is risen. I hope you are blessed with time with your family and friends. Happy Easter, friends.

Turned 47 today. Spent the day announcing our local Special Olympics and spending time with the fam. Pretty great day. Looking forward to a weekend filled with Easter activities and Wrestlemania. Life is good.

I disagree with the caption on this. Yes, Superman could have flown over and saved her, but he and Batman are obviously letting Robin look cool and play the hero on this one. Superman and Batman are solid wingmen. Some may even say they are the world’s finest.

Tonight, I introduced the kids to the timeless classic, “The Outsiders.” I have watched this a ton of times since I was a kid. Every time, I notice that issue of Detective Comics 521 from Dec. 1982 on the shelf. Outsiders took place in 1965. Did Dalley time travel?

No power? No problem! The world tells you that you need a lot of stuff, but this morning was a good example that all you really need is Jesus. Hats off to the First Baptist Hendersonville team for keeping the door open this morning and giving people something to smile about on a dreary Sunday!

Went to a local card shop today and found these American Bandstand cards that featured artists from the 50s-90s. These were some of my favorites.

I saw this referenced in a news article and wanted to look it up myself. I will leave it here for anyone that should need it in the future. 😁 Thomas Jefferson’s thoughts on anyone serving more than two terms as President, straight from his autobiography.

Amen.

I watched this with my son and explained to him that this is how America is supposed to work. @corybooker.com deserves so much respect for this. Democrats need to get behind this guy and fight. Start today!

@corybooker.com 👏

Here’s the first news article I see after some really loud thunderstorms kept me awake for a few extra hours last night. I hate the Internet. Happy Monday!

Looks like I am going to be teaching sleepy tomorrow morning as I keep a watch on the weather while my family sleeps.

26 years ago today, I lost my dad to a sudden and unexpected heart attack. Not a day has gone by that I haven’t missed him. He would be amazed at how my/the world has changed since March 29, 1999. I do like to think this is how he went into Heaven to meet Jesus.

Check out episode 37 of After School with Mr. V! Today, I got to chat with the amazing Chloe Styler. Chloe is an incredible singer/songwriter that was named the 2024 Gold Coast Music Awards Breakout Artist of the Year. I think you will be hearing a lot more from her in the future.

Happy Opening Day, friends. Cubbies are coming into it at 0-2 because of that Japan series against the Dodgers, so we are already playing catch up on day one. Feels kinda like life in general right now. 🙃 #GoCubsGo youtu.be/iQWbKqFVoeQ?...

You guys remember in GI Joe how Cobra Commander was evil, yet really inept at making his plans come to fruition because he also surrounded his own ineptness with others that were equally as bad or worse (looking at you, Drednoks)? We are watching that play out in real life.

And just like that, @benjaminpercy.bsky.social started writing his next great comic book series…

Words that I live by on anxiety-filled days like today: Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs it down, but a good word cheers it up. -Proverbs 12:25

It seems like this would be something that would be pretty simple to prove. If he did not do it, cool. Our bad. If he did, then he just blatantly lied about it to the American people and that seems like pretty solid grounds for a dismissal from official duties.

I was just asked in a class to explain what a DJ was and I have never felt as old as I do right this second.

This is excellent. Give me seat 1 with Dr. King and Dolly because that conversation is going to be phenomenal!
