I hope you enjoyed the Super Bowl yesterday. I missed it entirely because I was too busy putting the finishing touches on this, the 301st issue, of Uncommon Sense. OK, let’s see what we have in this issue of Uncommon Sense. . .

The Self-Development column will give you some insights into the world of innovation. Yes, you can become an innovator and develop your reputation for being an innovator. Read this column to get the ball rolling.

The Elephant in the Room column looks at some recent events that cause one to question the ethics behind each event.

I’ve been thinking about the internet recently, especially the pros and cons of the internet. . . You mean there are problems due to the internet? Yes. Big ones. Check out my musings in the From Ara’s Journal column.

Building your vocabulary with the richness of the American lexicon is a beautiful thing, and each issue of Uncommon Sense closes with The World of Words column, where I present a word that, if adopted by you, will augment your power of expression and make you sound seasoned, articulate, and elegant. And that’s a good thing!

OK, let’s get started.
