Fake Plastic Christians
During the pandemic I read this hilarious true story about a woman in California who had been watering a beautiful succulent for two years that she loved and took great care of. She was so proud of it: gave it the right amount of water and sunlight, washed its leaves and probably even talked to... Continue Reading →
Lessons Dad Taught Me
It has been a week since we laid my dad, Frank J Chirico to rest; food people brought is almost gone, birdfeeder that attracted birds he watched on the deck is empty, and the only thing you can hear in the house is the sump pump running. It really is the first time I've been... Continue Reading →
Thank You All
On September 25th, 2022 I lost my father, Frank Chirico, Sr. to a short battle with Leukemia. He was 77.

2022 Iowa State Fair – Answers In Genesis Booth: Final Day
The last Saturday of the fair. I was so happy when I had finally gotten through it without physical injury unlike last year blowing out my knee.

2022 Iowa State Fair – Answers In Genesis Booth: Day 6
For the past few days things have been going really well. In the first few days I was mostly putting dinosaur tattoos on kids, which I really enjoy.

2022 Iowa State Fair – Answers In Genesis Booth: Day 1-2
As I walked through the main gate on Grand Avenue, the feeling was electric. The smell of corndogs cooking along with all sorts of things on a stick wafted through the air. I felt as if I was home, and for some reasons I was. This year was a special year for me. It was... Continue Reading →
Why I Am Not Catholic Anymore: The Worship of Saints
