Looking for a list that names names of people and companies actually boycotting Georgia and/or Alabama (or Missouri, or any other state) over pro-lfe legislation. I understand that Georgia is receiving a lot of attention because it has a significant amount of filming on location there. Some, like Netflix, are claiming that they will “re-evaluate” […]

Political beliefs (Marriage)
This is a religious institution. Marriage has been defined throughout history as a commitment between a MAN and a WOMAN.Whether this means one man and one woman or one man and multiple wives that is up to the precepts of the particular religion. This institution is not up for debate by the state. This is […]
It’s easy to fall into the trap of enjoying the schadenfreude from the misfortune of CNN. When you see that the most well-known avatar of Fake News is laying off employees and hemorrhaging funds it is easy to take this as a victory. But be wary. The purpose of CNN–as well as the other peddlers […]

Political beliefs (Voting)
I think Jesse Ventura had a great idea. Remove the labels identifying who is a democrat/republican/independent at the polls. The order of the names should be randomized as well to avoid people picking the first name on the list or the last. People need to vote responsibly. Far too many people vote one party or […]

Tour of Duty at Arlington
For Memorial Day, I particularly enjoyed this article by Sen. Cotton about his time serving at Arlington National Cemetery. https://imprimis.hillsdale.edu/sacred-duty-soldiers-tour-arlington-national-cemetery/ (Sorry I didn’t manage to get this posted yesterday.)

Nagging Tech
I utilize a lot of online services. I buy my groceries, order takeout, schedule car maintenance, miscellaneous shopping, etc. As a result, I’m bombarded with “please rate your service / purchase” emails. For some, if I don’t respond, those messages don’t stop until I do. I find this quite infuriating. I took my car in […]

Our deep traditions…
I know I should be giving an erudite exposition on the recent European elections just now, but I don’t wannna. I’d rather show you this deeply English, deeply Saxon cultural event that means far more and has far more weight than the EU elections. The Haxey Hood Game is one of deep old ones. There […]

Memorial Day
Back in the ’90s, I worked as a security officer in an Emergency Room in an inner-city Chicago hospital. Every day, I’d put on a uniform, pin a piece of tin to my shirt and stand in the gap to protect the lives, safety and property of those in my charge. I saw carnage, smelled […]

Dancing With Death
With the signing of Heartbeat Laws in Alabama and Georgia (ironically, right after New York and Virginia passed fourth trimester abortion), The abortion debate is once again taking center stage. Social media has been flooded with memes, videos, advocating for both sides, leading to conversations on the subject. I’ve been involved in a couple myself. […]

Regarding “The Enemy Below”
Every year, as part of my Memorial Day observances, I watch war movies. This evening, Eileen and I watched The Enemy Below, starring Robert Mitchum as Murrell and Curt Jurgens as Von Stolberg. Murrell is the captain of a US Navy destroyer and Von Stolberg is his opposite number, aboard a German U-boat. The first […]

What a great catch!
For those of you who might have been underwhelmed by watching the Starlink satellites ooze out of the payload bay in a package that looked like a crushed soda cup, this might put a better light on it. Amateur astronomer Dr. Marco Langbroek captured them flying over the Netherlands in a neat line, gradually navigating […]

Born In The USA… Not So Much
I always keep a radio on. For me, it’s almost a necessity, living alone. Saturday night, I heard a very nice Memorial day thanks to Veterans. Then, the station ruined it… I sent a letter to management. Dear Station Manager,I have to tell you, I keep all of my radios on Z##, except during sporting […]
What do you think the biggest missed opportunity in world history was? I’ll tell you what I think it was: Canadamerica. While reading the Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union, which, for those of you who are unaware, was the governing document of the United States of America before the adoption of the Constitution, I […]

Remembering “Star Wars”
Scott Ott requested more movie related content from me, so here’s a piece I wrote a year ago, commemorating the 40th Anniversary of Star Wars. This is the 40th anniversary of the release of Star Wars: Episode IV, A New Hope. Or as we called it back in the day, Star Wars. Apparently, the thing […]
