My father gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, he believed in me.
—Jim Valvano
His heritage to his children wasn’t words or possessions, but an unspoken treasure, the treasure of his example as a man and a father.

Fatherhood demands
more than you can imagine.
But son, what a gift.
Per my about page, White Noise is a work of experimentation. I view it as a sort of thinking aloud, a stress testing of my nascent ideas. Through it, I hope to sharpen my opinions against the whetstone of other people’s feedback, commentary, and input.
If you want to discuss any of the ideas or musings mentioned above or have any books, papers, or links that you think would be interesting to share on a future edition of White Noise, please reach out to me by replying to this email or following me on Twitter X.
With sincere gratitude,

Nice Father’s Day photo, Tom. But, honestly, are those life vests large enough to float? Maybe go up a size larger, LOL.
Lovely! Nicely done! Shared it with my husband who wholeheartedly agreed.
