The game that has created rifts among friendships, fights among relationships, and even makes the truest of hearts not only skip a turn & draw two, but skip a beat – but not in a good way. The game where singularity is not only the title of the game, but the goal. And some people will go to any length, or voice volume level, to get there.

Percy Sledge once sang that “In the hustle of the day, we’re all inclined to miss some things: little things that mean so much: a word, a smile, a kiss.” Lately the daily hustle seems ever more bustling, and in such times even the smallest words of kindness — love, hope, care — can carry powerful emotions.

Lately, differences seem to be everywhere. Stephen Covey, author of the 1989 hit self-help book The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, assured us that “Strength lies in differences, not in similarities,” but I’m not convinced.

The first American Pope that has ever been elected grew up just miles away from Milwaukee – he’s from Chicago. Now, for the cesspool that normally is the internet, it was actually (for once) a place where jokes where a plenty and the only victim was how bad Chicago sports teams need divine intervention to get them out of the decades long slump they have been in. But it doesn’t just stop there. Chicago food & of course, their local politics took a few jabs as well.
