What in the world is a Gremlin Bell?
Man do I have some nuggets of uncommon knowledge for you to add to your conversational tool bag. We all have one, don’t be shy. Uncommon, weird, or strange knowledge is mandatory for everyone. Some people have some strange facts tucked away about how sharks clean their teeth, some have the golden nugget of how many stairs are in the Statue of Liberty (not that it matters) while others have more socially acceptable nuggets about household cleaning cheats (please share them with me).

My Transition from the Army.
Serving in the United States Army for the last 20 years 5 months and 18 days has been the most amazing experience of my life (so far). Are there moments I regret…. of course! Did I form amazing lifelong bonds with people…of course! I experienced so much that I could probably write a series of articles on that as well. However, this piece is on how I successfully (kind of) handled my transition from the Army.

I am sure by this point in many of our lives we have either been to a few weddings or been in a few weddings. If you have the experience of being a groomsman, flower girl or the coveted bridesmaid then you have seen the true bliss and wonder of weddings.

Well guys I got good news for you…. the wedding and everything was for her, your best friend, your lover, your soulmate, your everything.
