Living Well with Kevin Bungert

It's been 5 months since my last post.  I cannot believe it!  My last two posts dealt with the loss of Randy Pausch and I think I got into a little funk over that.  Then the holidays came and you know how that is.  I have absolutely missed all my friends that I have made here, I'm glad to be back...

I coach my son's little league team and unfortunately we are not very good.  I guess the draft Gods were not looking down upon us.  The kids are 9 and 10 year olds, and they really are a blast to coach. In trying to keep them in as many games as possible and trying to teach them a little about ba...
