    Family Walks - Catholic Husband

    Walking as a family is an ideal way to spend some time together and get quality group exercise. It gets everyone out of the house and into God’s creation. One or two laps around the block is all it takes to enjoy nature and each other. Let the conversation flow and appreciate the world around you.

  • When the Stimulus Check in Your Bank Account Isn’t What You Expected - WSJ

    Some are finding less than they expected. Others think they are getting too much. Some say money is going into bank accounts they don’t recognize. And still others are struggling to decipher error messages from an Internal Revenue Service website.

    I cannot believe that yet another program dreamt up during a 48 hour $2.2T bender didn’t work out flawlessly!

    Book Review: The Last Patriot 📚

    With all of the upheaval going on in the world, I thought now was a great time to get lost in Brad Thor’s Scot Harvath series again. Something light, fast, and distracting. In this book, Thor continues his mid-2000s trope of the West vs. Islamic terrorism. That’s one of the things that I’ve come to discover about Thor. He publishes a new thriller each year, and in many ways, each installment is a product of the days in which it was written.

    Setting that complaint aside (I’d rather meet some different villains), Thor does a good job of educating the reader on other historical events. In this case, Thor brings in the First Barbary War conducted by Thomas Jefferson.

    The book was good and I enjoyed it, but only if you can stand yet another fictional book about the War of Terrorism.

    Would I recommend: YES

  • Targeting Tony Fauci - WSJ

    Dr. Fauci said later that week that he wished efforts to pit him against the President would stop

    Yes. An absolutely reckless and unconscionable campaign.

    Dr. Fauci is a valuable communicator and has improved public confidence in the Administration’s coronavirus response. Many in the press can’t stomach that.
