Let's begin by exposing some myths, lies and truths. As humans, we wear lots of hats. I have cowboy hats, baseball caps, fedoras and have even been seen in a do-rag. What I wear, if I wear a hat at all, depends upon how I feel in any given moment. Same for you? Perhaps you're not into hats. Perhaps you wear a particular sweatshirt, T-shirt or have several different pairs of shoes. Like band-aids, they cover sensitivities or hide scars. Psychologists refer to wearing masks, as it applies to covering parts of our personalities that we may not be comfortable with or that we may not feel comfortable with others seeing in us. Sometimes masks even blanket good traits that we fear might not be accepted by the particular group we associate with. What interesting creatures we are! Christian Counselor, Author, Inventor, Entrepreneur, Master Fitness Instructor and Coach Coach DeLoriea is one of the more successful coaches in NASCAR. "Coach" brings firsthand knowledge of what it is to put championship teams together. He brings 'old school' ideas back to the forefront when it comes to management. Using his GI Bill to attend Lenoir Rhyne University he received a degree in Psychology with an emphasis on Human Development. One of Coach's proudest moments was when the Department of Defense awarded him a Certificate of Appreciation for assisting the United States Army in developing a Pit Crew type turnaround plan for its helicopter force. Coach has had a diverse career starting with his celebrated work with severely and profoundly handicapped children, and teens in trouble with the law. After eleven years of dedicated service he took a dramatic turn and co-purchased a gym and became a personal trainer and coach.

Waffle House Diaries

By: Wayne Smith

This memoir depicts the Waffle House as a microcosm of humanity where Gandhi would not be out of place meeting the twelve disciples and hookers and addicts sit in booths next to agents of the Department of Justice. It shows a world where coffee is the beverage of communion, good and evil become blurred, and real life never mirrors exploits in the movies. Looking back on his journey for justice in an unjust world, Smith recalls various events in his career not as heroic adventures but as daily procedures where he does what he can with his limited resources and intelligences. Ultimately he finds storytelling, not a gun, to be the most effective weapon to confront the dark. Review: "Waffle House Diaries" . . . recalls a 30-year career in enforcing federal drug laws--the good, the bad and the ugly as he calls it--of working for the Department of Justice. In the book, Smith recounts one occasion while on surveillance to arrest a group of smugglers offloading marijuana in the middle of a river and finds himself instead helping to rescue two men from a helicopter which had crashed into the river in the midst of heavy fog. When he is injured in a car crash, he soon finds that doctors in Berkeley refused to treat "pigs." And on three different occasions he was forced to draw his gun to protect himself and those around him. --Severo Avila, The Rome News Tribune
