And now for something completely different. We all know that George Bush is not a mental giant, and for that matter, none of the family is. That’s bad, and it has gotten us into a world of trouble. However, George is true to his wife, and as far as any of us know, he is […]
CORRECTION: Israel bombed IRAQ, not IRAN, in 1981, not 1980. Sorry! Memory served me wrong. In July, the space shuttle will be launched again, and hopefully will land back on earth in one piece eventually. What a joke. That outdated contraption is about as safe as a canoe going down the Colorado River through the […]
First of all, it is not illegal for Iran to enrich its own uranium. They are violating no laws. I know, it’s because they think Israel should be wiped off the map, and everyone’s afraid they’ll bomb Israel if they have an atomic bomb. They wouldn’t dare to do that, because it would spell the […]
It’s really difficult to be objective about something one despises so much, but here goes. Why hate a bureaucrat or bureaucracy? Simply because they are so inefficient, self serving, wasteful, costly, and pervasive, if that’s reason enough.. Let’s examine the problems with one, and see how they are literally destroying the dollar we all measure […]
Well, this day after election, many a good man will find he has been replaced because he failed to bring in enough government loot from Washington. Did you ever figure what constitutes our modern representative? It’s the one that can bring home the new Federal Post Office, even it they wasn’t using the old one. […]
We all know that the dollar is being recklessly printed, and numbers increased by all possible means. These include bureaucracy, bonds, T-bills, foreign investments, and every known way to spend, and debase the currency. Bureaucracies are one of the most offending, currency debilitating devices known to man, be they in the private or public sector. […]
I have often wondered whether politicians gave a second’s thought as to what their speeches, remarks, and actions would have as far as the future of the world or their own nation. Take Bush’s Sate of the Union speech of a few years ago, when he came out with the now famous “Axis of Evil” […]
Million, that is. In 1940, the population of Mexico was 20 million, and now it is 140 million, or half the population of the whole U.S. Mexico is crammed full. Why? because it is mostly Roman Catholic and they don’t believe in birth control? Because, as some say, it is the goal of most Mexican […]
Ever been in a greenhouse? It’s a most marvelous place to visit. It is warm, humid, contains lots of oxygen, and smells of plants lustily growing in the ideal conditions. Greenhouses then, are wonderful. Shouldn’t the gases in them be the same? Not according to the greenies and weepy, teeth gnashing environmentalists. You know them. […]
When a lad of 18, I decided to explore the American West, which I had read so much about. I took my 1941 Plymouth and headed out. I kept a diary of each day’s expenses, and counting meals, gas, motel, etc, I did indeed keep it to $30 per day. Motels then were maybe $3-$4 […]
