The Rhino Saw His Shadow
Well, February 2nd has come and gone over the past several weeks and the Rhino did see his shadow, but then again, the Rhino always sees his shadow. But instead of dreading six more weeks of winter, he chooses to use his time wisely and prepare for spring. The best leaders should use this time to do
The Rhino vs. The Rhino
I don’t know about you, but I enjoyed every minute of this years Superbowl that took place last week in my backyard. Wow! What a game. Never have I seen a game that carried so much passion and spirit. And I’m not just talking about team spirit. I am talking about good old-fashioned American tried
