The View from My Refrigerator.

Driving to work this morning, I saw another bumper sticker that says, “My child is an honor student.”  It’s a fact, we parents love to brag about our children. So, please, permit me to do the same. This is what greets each member of my family as we open our refrigerator and reach for the …

A Penny’s Worth of Fun.

I surely will be labeled a geek when I tell you what I did last night. It surprised even me, Mr. TV reporter. Mr. Too Busy to Stop and Smell the Roses. But last night, for a full hour, there were no thoughts about work or the pressures of raising a family. It was just …

If the TV thing doesn’t work out, I may have a future in food services. Recently, my wife and I volunteered our “talents” at Wade Hampton High School’s spaghetti dinner fundraiser.

Was That Tim I Saw?

Tim and Iva Waller at Dr. Stanley's church.

Over the summer, I received a flurry of emails at work from viewers who wondered if “that was Tim Waller they saw” on Dr. Charles Stanley’s Sunday morning TV broadcast. “If that wasn’t Tim, it sure looked like him,” said one. “I’m pretty sure I saw Tim and his wife on In Touch,” said another. …

Tin Grin!

Getting wired.

Here’s a photo I’ve been toting around on my Blackberry for more than a month. It’s my youngest daughter getting braces on her teeth. And not just braces…colored braces! She went with a combination of pink and purple. What dads (and moms) won’t do for their daughters!
