Christian, conservative for my whole life and am old enough to have voted for Ronald Reagan. And old enough (14) to watch the moon landing live. "Met" Neil Armstrong.

Experience comes from making mistakes. Some of us learn from other people's mistakes. Most of us must be the other people.

Death by Despair.
I tried to find a link to a column in May 9 2020 Cincinnati Enquirer titled “Suicide, addiction death rates expected to climb” but could not. When people say, “You don’t care about the deaths, only the economy.” , here is something to think about. What follows is not word for word. …. Dr Elinore […]
