Dear Dr. Carlisle,
I appreciate the fact that despite common practices, you choose to make the writing with the asterisk smaller than the asterisk note that follows. I applaud your unconventionality.
Sincerely, Uncle Sam

P.S. Have a spectacular day, and don't forget to drink your Ovaltine.

I have never decided to take time to check your blog out. I have now considered to take time to do this more often.

I watched the video of Jose Antonio Vargas again, and thinking how much sucess this man has done in his life time. This is an extremely strong/emotional video to watch. I'm surprised how this man hasn't been deported back to his original country. I had my brother sit next to me me in awe. Thank you Mr.Carlise for sharing this link.
