I’ve got a bad attitude when it comes to bad attitude. And, yes, I know how that sentence looks and sounds. But the first bad is more along the lines of Michael Jackson’s song, “Bad.” and the second is more along the lines of Huey Lewis and the News’ song, “Sometimes Bad is Bad.” How’s that for using songs to define a bad attitude? … The rest of the story…

I’m the only byline author here on TonyFunderburk.com. And, of course, that makes sense since the website bears my name. In case you’re not familiar with journalism jargon, a byline is just a title of the article and who wrote it, who it’s “by.” And so I’m the byline author of this whole website. So, whether it’s blame or credit that’s dished out or … The rest of the story…
It’s crazy weird. But most people still believe there are some people qualified to “make law.” And nothing could be further from the truth. I have a quirky, murky sign of a turkey who illustrates what I mean. And it has to do with something called the “Adult Entertainment Act.” Adult Entertainment Act might be the right name for it. Because it sounds like … The rest of the story…
I think there’s a good chance that I have a tendency to pray for me more than I pray for you. I know, I know. It’s totally selfish. And I don’t feel good about it. But, hey, at least I’m admitting my shortcoming. And that goes on the “good” side of my ledger. Right? And it’s not about “stuff” when I pray for me. … The rest of the story…
There are a lot of shyster marketers out there (and it’s a sad commentary to say there are a lot) who want to separate you from your moolah. And they claim to have the keys to success. If you’re willing to opt in, shell out, and upgrade to the “next level” as they build a better mousetrap. But most of them can’t find their … The rest of the story…
Your day didn’t go like you planned or wanted. Your hopes and dreams for a better tomorrow were dashed against the rocks. And you don’t see anyone living up to your expectations. But why you gotta be like that? I’m serious…why? Some years ago, I had a conversation with a relative who was a miserable wretch. This person (I don’t wanna say she or … The rest of the story…
We are the world. But that’s not a good thing. We can do good things. But we’re not solutions for change. We are not the answer to life’s challenges and problems. That’s why I don’t like that famous song, “We Are The World,” that was recorded on this day back in 1985. Sure, it’s catchy, I admit. But it’s wrong. It describes humans as … The rest of the story…
A friend of mine is a business coach. And she shows her clients the value of a to do list. Plus, she helps them implement it into their business. And then, she even helps them build a system to automate much of it. It’s pretty cool. And I’ve seen her help a lot of business owners with her system. But there are many more … The rest of the story…
How could a loving God allow all the pain there is in this world? Yeah. That’s a question that people who hate God love to ask. Because they believe it exposes what they consider to be flaws in the Christian faith. But that assertion makes the assumption that love and pain are mutually exclusive. And no amount of love can erase all the pain. … The rest of the story…
Ten years ago, this month, I talked about the root of all evil. No, not congress. Although, they come in a close second most of the time. Of course, the root of all evil is money. There I said it. But it needs to be said. Especially right now when Halloween is only a couple of days away. And that’s the holiest day of … The rest of the story…
