Mike Steinharter’s Musings

It wss 2020 (and now its not) and I finally decided to blog a bit. I have no idea if anyone will find this interesting to read, other than perhaps one or more of my kids (I am quite sure my wife will not), but it is fun and I have the time (after all it’s 2020, the year no one could imagine) so, why not? Enjoy.

“America needs to shutdown all mosques and ban Islam”

His role model behavior has inspired others around the world…or others have inspired him. Who cares. It’s definitely not gone. It is…

The Best Dog in the World

I picked up this book recently and admit I’ve only just started it, but it already speaks to me. I find myself meandering through all the dogs who have shaped my life. I love my kids a lot but the dogs I’ve loved a lot too, and when it comes to unconditional love there’s nothing…
