Today I want to take a serious tone with my vlog and talk about how few people are immune to abuse especially the Clifford family. We need to be more open about what happened and I as a dad need to reach out to make sure that everyone knows its ok to talk about it and to be silent is not an option.

TommyLog TECH – Just Like Being there with Verizon 4G LTE & FaceTime #VZWBuzz #AD
Good morning kids, for today’s TommyLog TECH I want to talk about how technology helped bridge the gap and bring my son and me together.
This weekend it was hard for me to be at Tommy’s cross country meet as I was going out of down to attend the wedding of a friend in Door County, WI. Thanks to the thoughtful gesture by my good tech buddy Cole Reinke it was almost as good as bring there. Cole used Facetime along with his Verizon 4G LTE enabled iPhone to bring me right to the race. I could hear the wind, the crowds yelling and I was even able to cheer on Tommy as he ran by. All live and in real-time! It is just amazing how something so small, can make such a huge difference.
Technology can be more than this OS vs. that OS, megapixels or MHz. Today it was personal. Thanks Cole and THANK YOU Verizon!
Short and sweet, Verizon 4G LTE is totally 100% Tommy Approved!

Happy 50th Wedding Anniversary to my wonderful parents.
TommyLog – Why Bad Things Happen?
Yesterday was September 11th with all the commemoration that goes into the 13th anniversary of that tragic event. Emma, who is 7 and wasn’t even thought about back in 2001, had an experience in school that really touched her…to the point of tears. Yesterday at school they watched a video about PS 234 and the impact 9/11 had on that school. She was just so moved by the video. This morning she asked “Dad, why do bad things happen?”
TommyLog – Chance Meeting – Changes Perspectives
Holy Cow, can’t believe it that school is in full swing and fall is right around he corner. How sad that summer is almost all gone. This weekend my sweetie and I had a date night at Texas Roadhouse to see Madeline at her new job. I ran into a long time friend and former co-worker. What happened next and the life lesson was truly remarkable.
Thank you J & G for that change in perspective!
