For Christian American readers of this blog:


I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!


A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

Clay Softball Excellence- Carol and Clay vice

The pictures show a few of the excellent Clay area softball girls with Carol and Clay Vice.  These are probably the best performance teams from the area in any sports activity. These pictures were in my "Excellence in Athletics in the Portsmouth Area" book.   I just ran across them in searching my books.




My latest book "Acquaintances with Integrity II"(2011) should be available shortly on Kindle-Amazon and I will be trying to get other books like Excellence on a little later. They come to you quickly for your e-readers and are much less expensive.

Carol coached the Clay High School softball team from 1978 to 1988. Clay was also her softball sidekick.  Their remarkable record was 262 wins and only 20 losses (93%). Highlights include:

3 State Championships

3 State semi-finalist teams

2 State Runner-up teams

and 8 regional championships

And their Clay Little League and Senior league teams were also excellent. The Clay Senior League All Stars advanced to the 1978 World Series in Baxter, Kansas and finished fourth in the tournament.

Beth McCullough summarized this information which I have paraphrased a little.


Carol was inducted into Ohio High School's Softball Hall of Fame A couple of years ago.

Please show a little love to these outstanding coaches, Carol and Clay, and to any of their Clay girls for bringing girls' softball fame to our area when you see them!


And they are both really nice people!
