Dying by degrees, is a far more painful episode than dying quickly.  My Dad died fairly quickly, which was very fortunate.  He started smoking when he was 15 and could never quit.  He died at 63 from lung cancer, and went so quickly, that he thought he had bronchitis.  America has been dying for […]

  Was there ever a western movie, without a bar fight?   Was there ever a government, which didn’t spend more than it took in?   Was there ever a bureaucrat, who didn’t try to make himself so important, that he can hire underlings and raise himself up in seeming importance and of course pay […]

  I am writing this a few days after the D.C. Navy Yard shooting took place.  I am not at all certain that the now dead shooter’s examination by the media is true.  They got a lot of it totally wrong.  Was he was a nut case?  Maybe, and maybe not.  We must remember that […]

  Twenty One years ago, (1992), I wrote a book titled, “I Hold These Truths.”  It has 90 chapters, and is basically my opinion on 90 different subjects.  Long out of print, and I didn’t save it on my computer, as I did another one, “Consequences,” which I wrote in 1998.  Occasionally, I thumb through […]

  Islam’s Prophet Muhammad, from all of the accounts I have read, was a revered man, and in his lifetime, united all the Arabic tribes into one nation.  He was born in 570 in Mecca, Saudi Arabia.  At age 25, he married a widow 25 years older than himself, who bore his children, and was […]

  Where have all the jobs gone?  There are a couple of answers, but let’s tae the most obvious one first.  Everything, no matter which field of work, has lost jobs over the last few decades. with no exceptions.   When I was young, (many decades ago!),  the only self service elevators were in small apartment […]

  The military-industrial complex is winning again.  Some Syrians have been gassed!  Wow!  As if various peoples haven’t been gassed before.  Gassing began in the First World War, and has continued ever since.  Iraq gassed Iran, and gassing has been used over and over again, without a war being started.  Millions have died, been hung, […]

  I have been a fan of Pat Buchanan for many years.  We both grew up in Washington D.C., are about the same age, and seem to agree on politics.  The following is a Buchanan column, with which I don’t really agree, even though it is accurate, and to most, should make a lot of sense! […]

  I have been hearing of the world’s end, Armageddon, currency collapses, earth warming, commie takeovers, gold going to $5,000, or $50,000, (take your pick), and all sots of nonsense, ever since I was a kid in knee pants.  I was a member of the John Birch Society twice.  That give you an idea of […]

  I can’t resist it when people send me stuff!  The following was sent to me by a client, and it is so obviously pertinent, that I reprint it below.                 Moving To Mexico Dear President Obama, I’m planning to move my family and extended family into Mexico for my health, and I would like […]
