We could all learn a lot from the way Vic Gilliam conducted his life. There are too few people in this world that possess his character, compassion, wit and genuine kindness. Even fewer in politics. I know many #orpol hearts are heavy today. We’ll miss you, Vic.

Try having a conversation with us... You’ll find we love our country just as much as you do. We just refuse to willingly ignore our country’s inequities and shortcomings. We demand continual progress.

Remember when Trump supporters said they were “adults” and wouldn’t be rioting? They just stormed the nation’s CAPITOL.

Self proclaimed patriots right now are using intimidation and disruption to stop the final act of the people choosing their leader. This is the most un-American thing I’ve seen in a while.

I don’t secretly steal my kids’ Halloween candy. I eat it right in front of them while maintaining eye contact. Total power move.

Told a rival dad with a Honda Ridgeline that I’d be happy to drive him through the snow in my truck so he could get some of those little gas station bags of firewood he likes.

I totally would have done the same on one particular junior high field trip. Sadly, no beer was available that day. It was then I decided there is no earthly way to EVER pay middle school teachers enough.
