Thoughts on Easter
Happy Easter to all of my friends who celebrate! This is the day we remember that Christ Is Risen! He defeated death and rose from the grave on that third day. I have often thought of what that must have been like: to witness the death of the man you had been following. I also…

What’s Your Favorite Day Of The Week?
We had a question on the morning show this week: “What’s your favorite day of the week and why?” My immediate answer was Saturday and some agreed but I was interested in whether or not we’d get any other answers. One woman commented that now that she’s retired she likes every day except the weekend.…

Learn What You Can While You Can
I had a great visit the other day with the woman I call the “Matriarch” of the Braley Family. My cousin, Patricia, is the oldest living member of the family and what a wealth of information. I fell out of contact with my cousin over the years. This was something I apologized for when we…

It Cost HOW Much?
In case you don’t know, I do a daily show with my son, Matt, that you can find on YouTube. “The Pete Braley Show” is live at 8 a.m. and available on YouTube anytime after that. It’s a lot like my old radio show where we talk about stories I’ve found online or what’s happening…

Sometimes I’m Reminded How This Is Real

While it has helped millions and millions of people we also know how it’s been abused and misused by many. Then we enter the current state of medicine where the insurance…

My Least Favorite Month
It’s coming. No matter what I try I can’t keep it from arriving. What’s that? My least favorite month of the year…March. A couple of months ago we ranked our favorite months. I can’t remember mine exactly but it probably went: July September June August May October November December April February January March Some of…

GPS: Good or Bad?
Do you think the use of a GPS is dumbing down America? I’m not against using a GPS, in fact I use it everytime we go to Virginia or especially if I’m going to someplace new IN Virginia. You just type it in and you’re all set. The reason this came to mind is, one…

Super Bowl Time
Super Bowl Sunday has always been a big thing with me. I know that not everybody is into football but I think the Super Bowl is an event that most everyone will be talking about the next day. I was trying to remember today, “What was the first Super Bowl I remember watching?” Hmm. I…

Raising ”Bitty?”
Hi everyone! It’s me, Liam, and I feel like I haven’t talked to you in a forever! I just had a great visit with Grammy and Grampy, even though I prefer to call them Bitty and Betty. More on that in a couple of minutes. (Bitty tells me that’s a tease. Hee hee!) I think…
