It’s been a while, a long while. Life has been happening. Is it just me, or does it seem like this country has lost its identity? Seriously, people are now furries and drag queens are all about the kids. Children, not of legal age to get a tattoo, buy cigarettes, sign a contract, or live on […]

Remember 9/11
Today marks the twenty-one-year anniversary of one of the worst days in our country’s history. All of us old enough to remember know exactly where we were and what we were doing when the events of 9/11 happened. We need to make sure that we never forget that day.

Had Enough?
2022 is finally here, and can you honestly say that you are better off under a Biden presidency? What has he done for you lately? What about the history making event of a first woman of color vice-president named Kamala Harris? Still have goosebumps like you did with Obama? I didn’t think so. Between Biden and […]
Follow the Science
Ever since Covid-19 came into our lives, the people on TV and the people in Washington have been telling us know-nothings to “follow the science.” They stand on this command.

Parents, Beware!
The enemy is at your door! Your children may no longer be your own. The long arm of Big Brother has at long last reached into the sphere of parental authority. Politicians, like Terry McAuliffe, are no longer ashamed to expose their belief that parents have no say in what the schools are teaching their children. […]
Planet of the Apes: Part I

It promotes being a good citizen by wearing a mask, practicing social distance, avoiding large gatherings, and limiting travel. Its Savior is none other than the Covid-19 vaccine. But, unlike all other religions, Big Brother and Big Tech stand […]
Upside Down
Stranger things have never been so commonplace. A place where common sense has abandoned the mind, logic has left the side of reason, and the upside down is now the world we are living in. The real upside down is not about shadows, zombies, and Russian agents. It is the new normal, a jumpstart to a […]
Black Out
After so many years, I thought I was past being surprised by the crazy Texas weather. The winter storm last week was definitely a first in the 23 years I’ve lived here. The snow was beautiful and satisfied my wish for a white Christmas. Even though it came in February. Along with the snow came some […]
