Every year, in the spring, I notice it. The kids that used to be so enthusiastic in their singing start to stand or sit in stone silence. Fourth and fifth-grade boys are the hardest. They start to be very aware of others and have no desire to do anything “uncool.”
Dan Rockwell has a great tribute to Glenn Frey and collaboration on his Leadership Freak post. You never know what kind if impact a chance encounter will make. Dan has a list of memorable teams and their businesses/achievements.

No man is an island. We need each other. One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned since moving across the country is how critical it is to establish contacts in my new home. The Internet and smartphones make it easier to be in contact with friends and associates. Yet, there is nothing like face-to-face interaction to encourage creativity.
Rest in peace, Glenn Frey. Thanks for the music.
Cartoon of a guy with a guitar while a horrified pastor looks on. The guy says, “Everybody now! Sing ‘A Mighty Fortress Is our God!’ and bring it on home!”
I drew this cartoon for “The Lutheran” Magazine many years ago. MLK day reminded me there was more than one Luther in history
Cartoon of a boy with a guitar and a boy with a flashlight. The Guitar player says, “That’s it? I thought you said you were a lighting expert?”
Cartoon of a girl and someone with a bag over their head. The girl says, “I know what you mean. ‘Santa Claus is Coming to Town’ gives me the creeps too.”
Santa seems to be a bit of a stalker.
He sees you when you’re sleeping. He knows when you’re awake. He knows when you’ve been good or bad. Get a restraining order, for goodness sakes!”
