Random. Real. Unfiltered. Welcome to My World.

This is my personal channel. No scripts, no filters. Just real life.

DIY projects, home repairs, everyday life in Metro Atlanta, plus real estate updates from someone who actually works in the business. Sometimes just random thoughts or quick tips.

I also share experiences from living in Afghanistan, including years interacting with Muslims and clerics. These videos focus on the cultural reality of Islam, with some comparison to Christianity from an Orthodox Christian perspective.

Today on Mount Tabor, O Lord, You have shown the glory of your divine form to your chosen disciples, Peter, James and John. They looked upon your garments that gleaned like the light and at Your face that shown more than the sun. Unable to endure the vision of your brightness that none can bear, they fell to the earth, powerless to gaze at the site, for they heard a voice that bore witness from above: “This is my beloved son who has come into the world to save mankind!“

With all of the recent discussion about the SSPX, it occurred to me that my own experiences from those early years might actually be of historical interest.

As a teenager, I attended St. Pius V School in Wantagh, New York while it was still part of the SSPX, before the SSPV even existed. Fr. Clarence Kelly was my pastor, and Fr. Donald Sanborn had just recently been ordained when he became my Latin teacher. Before that, I attended Ave Maria Chapel in Westbury during my early years in the traditional Catholic movement.

At the time, I was just a kid. I had no idea that the people around me or the events taking place would one day become part of church history. Looking back almost fifty years later, it’s interesting to realize that many people today only know about those days through books, articles, YouTube videos, or podcasts.

I found the attached photo online that is from that era. Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre is in the center. Fr. Clarence Kelly is on the left, and Fr. Donald Sanborn is on the right. Seeing this photo brings back a lot of memories.

Life took me in a completely different direction after that. I spent decades in Evangelical Christianity before eventually becoming Orthodox.

If anyone who produces YouTube content, podcasts, or historical content thinks my firsthand memories from those early SSPX days would be worthwhile, I’d be happy to share what I remember. I’m not interested in stirring up old arguments or taking sides. I simply remember what it was like to be there, and if those memories help preserve a small piece of history, I’d be glad to share them.

Use the Amazon product photo and write:

Ever been locked out of a bathroom or bedroom?

In this video I showed how to unlock a privacy lock in seconds.

These inexpensive privacy lock keys are designed for exactly that purpose and I keep a few on hand.

Real estate observation:

Weekday Home Depot = contractors.

Saturday Home Depot = homeowners.

Both groups are convinced they’ll only be there for “a few minutes.”

Neither group is telling the truth. 😄
