DSA in HOA
ALTA♥CITIES®
One of the foundational principles of the Davis-Stirling Act (DSA) is the promotion of transparency and accountability in HOA governance via a preference for open sessions and following statutory (DSA) guidelines for agenda items in closed sessions. From the perspective of a 14-year Southern California 1317 member homeowner association and a former 2-year vice president of his HOA, this book explores the closed session parameters of HOA board meetings with an emphasis on the “list of 10” items that the DSA permits in closed sessions.
On the 8th Day God Created Football
... a ritualized drama, a patterned enactment of human longing for meaning.
On the 8th Day God Created Football is a sweeping, humorous, and heartfelt exploration of America’s most beloved sport as both cultural ritual and spiritual metaphor. Blending storytelling with theology, satire, and nostalgia, the book imagines football as a divine afterthought—created on a mythical eighth day as a gift to a restless humanity longing for purpose, unity, and spectacle.
Across seven richly layered chapters, the narrative examines football’s deeper significance: its liturgical rhythms, heroic archetypes, moral lessons, and unparalleled ability to bind communities together across generations. The game becomes a stage where courage is tested, character revealed, and redemption dramatized through fumbles, comebacks, and last-second miracles. Football stadiums rise like American cathedrals; Friday lights glow like sacred beacons; and fans participate in a weekly ritual that mirrors the ancient human desire for belonging and transcendence.
Interwoven throughout the book are quotes and insights from 20th- and 21st-century thinkers, theologians, coaches, and cultural critics, illuminating football as both a moral classroom and a modern mythology. From the heroism of the gridiron to the camaraderie of the locker room, the sport reflects life’s struggles, hopes, and joys.
Yet in its closing chapter, the book confronts a profound truth: football, like all earthly games, is temporary. Heaven needs no stadiums, no scoreboards, no rivalry—only the eternal joy of God’s presence. Football, then, is a beautiful but earthly signpost, pointing beyond itself to a glory far greater than the brightest Friday night lights.
