Guerilla warfare was perfected in Vietnam, and is in constant use today…by the Iraqis and Afghans.  The guerillas hide out of sight, and plant roadside bombs.  The don police uniforms or U.S. uniforms, and fool their victims.  They kidnap, behead, and murder in secret.  They blow up mosques and do things in anonymously, and are […]

Hammurabi was born around the year 1800 BC and ruled the Babylonian Empire from 1792-1750 BC.  He wrote the Hammurabi Code, which was ancient Babylon’s code of laws, consisting of close to 300 pages. I suggest that in America we might well adopt the entire code, word for word,  It covers everything from marriage, land, […]

I try not to sell bags of US silver coins, because they are damned difficult to store. They’re heavy, and weigh 56 pounds. One could store maybe 70 hundred ounce bars in the same space 2 bags take in a safe. Admittedly they are cheap as far as silver is concerned, often below spot. Below […]

Tuesday night was proof that government and politics has become the national religion.  Deer in the headlights Bush gave his State of the Union speech, and no, I didn’t watch it.  How do I know it is symptomatic of politics and government being the national religion?  Easy.  Every TV channel aired the speech, and for […]

Ron Paul is without doubt the most excellent of all members of Congress.  A medical doctor by trade, Libertarian by belief and vote, Republican by party affiliation, and a genuine wonderful American.  He has sort of announced for the Presidency in 2008, and I will support him with my writing, voting, and pocketbook.  Nothing finer […]

Is there a more sensitive and absorbing organ in the body than the tongue?  Then, as a further note on toothpastes which contain fluoride:  So what if you do spit it out?  When it is in your mouth, can’t the tongue and mouth absorb the fluoride?  Think about it. It has been brought to my […]

The correct term should be “legislated unemployment,” and that’s what the minimum wage is, for all practical purposes. This is not a political column, but one of simple logic. When the law sets the ’minimum wage’ that an employer must pay, quite obviously, that employer will take a second look at his staff. It has […]

I Bought a book at Salvation Army last week for a quarter, titled “Hell To Pay,” and it has a picture of Hillary on the front cover.  It’s about Hillary from childhood on, and it was written before she became “Senator Clinton.”  That is one vicious, cold, calculating woman!  I mean this book really exposes […]

How about a new idea from these ancient bones?  (Sharp mind though.)  Why do we have this absurd two party system?  Let me give you my opinion.  It is simply so that the Democrats can blame the Republicans and vice versa for all the mistakes, foolish spending, and lousy laws they pass or don’t pass.  […]

We all have favorite books, films, and foods. Books, films, and foods we always gyrate to when we need a treat, refresher, or to prove a salient point. I stumbled across a marvelous book several years ago in a Phoenix, AZ used book store. I paid $6.50 for it, and was glad to do it […]
