This quote is from the book, “The Life of Colonel David Crockett,” by Edward Ellis (1884) “Crockett was then the lion of Washington. I was a great admirer of his character, and, having several friends who were intimate with him, I found no difficulty in making his acquaintance. One day, in the House of […]
This is not about the Capulets and Montagues, with the sad story of love between opposing tribes. My 1887 home here in Colorado, even has a “Juliet Porch” (literally) which is a small second floor porch where Juliet supposedly can speak to her lover below.

There is no currency in the entire world, which is backed by anything, other than the “Full faith and credit of the (you fill in the blank) government.” Even the IMF yesterday, warned that a global monetary collapse could happen if governments don’t stop their reckless spending.

“Suppose they confiscate my gold like Roosevelt did?” We’ve heard this a hundred times, I am sure. It’s a coin shop’s favorite spiel. Did Roosevelt confiscate everyone’s gold back in 1933? If he did, how come there’s still a lot of it for sale in a thousand coin shops? What really did happen? America […]
Obama said that, “Islam has always been a part of America’s story.” I don’t think so, because many Muslims love to suicide bomb innocents, which includes American soldiers, plus hundreds, or even thousands of innocents. Of course, since the bombers are Muslim, they achieve instant paradise and lots of virgins. Since females are now […]
You dumb clucks! Never have we seen any people as outright stupid as you collectively are. You all are so dumb and ignorant, that you don’t know how to teach your kids!
