[July 1, 2026] And we wonder why America won its independence from Britain. UK police arrested a clothing store’s plastic mannequin for wearing “immodest clothes.” Okay, they didn’t actually arrest it; they confiscated it, put it in a police van, and drove it off to jail, guarded by at least a dozen police officers. It is reported that… Read More »
[June 30, 2026] I recently did a basic review of The Meditations by Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius, but I felt that I’d not given it enough attention. Here, I’m going to try and correct that by giving a little more of my personal take on it. Bare with me, as I plow myself through. In PDF format link… Read More »
[June 29, 2026] Shocking headlines in America have, for years, claimed that 40% of kids can’t read. That is not true, but what is really happening is nearly as bad.

[June 28, 2026] It’s late Saturday night and I’m tired. What made me so tired? First off, I was nervous about traveling out to the western side of New Jersey (yeah, only a little over an hour drive) to attend a U.S. Marine O-6 level change of command.

[June 26, 2026] I am amazed and thrilled that the severely damaged textual scrolls from parts of ancient cultures are now being read. It now looks like we will be able to read the voices from 2,000 years ago. One example are the scrolls found in the Lost Library of Herculaneum. The problem, of course, is trying to… Read More »
[June 25, 2026] Hat tip to John Hinderaker at PowerLineBlog.com on his article about how ANTIFA thugs got long prison sentences for attacking an ICE facility in Texas. I found his comments about them both entertaining and enlightening.

[June 24, 2026] Part of our emotional and intellectual development is to recognize the evil tendencies that characterize us and to wrestle with them and learn to integrate them. We should not cast those evil tendencies away, we should convert them instead to make us stronger. We can see the difference between people who’ve done so and the… Read More »
[June 23, 2026] ANNOUNCEMENT: I’m happy to announce, for the first time here on my website, that there will be a highly popular, three-day event honoring the 250th anniversary of the USA in late September this year.

[June 22 2026] Soldiers use the image of the hero’s perfection to motivate themselves. Self motivation is what people don’t understand about Soldiers, they don’t understand it at least to the degree that Soldiers are uncorrupted.
