[June 25, 2023] Two days ago, we began hearing that Yevgeny Prigozhin’s Wagner mercenary group had withdrawn from their positions in Ukraine and turned eastward toward Moscow in an alleged attempt to overthrow Vladimir Putin. There is no reliable unclassified confirmation on this, which might be for show or propaganda purposes. Either way, this represents an unexpected and… Read More »
[June 24, 2023] We now know the Titan submersible operated by OceanGate Expeditions experienced a “catastrophic implosion,” killing all five aboard her, including the now-deceased CEO Stockton Rush. But the Woke Ideology of Mr. Rush, believing he was being “innovative” and “inspirational” by removing old white, experienced men from his team who objected to poor safety protocols, led… Read More »
[June 23, 2023] Looking back on my time as a kid, I’m not so sure I was using my thinking abilities properly. Yeah, the men in my town were nearly all combat veterans. I was enthralled by their harrowing experiences, cool demeanor, pretty girlfriends, tales of growing up in the boonies and swamps of Louisiana, great physical strength,… Read More »
[June 22, 2023] A couple of weeks ago, a friend was reminiscing about his childhood. We were back and forth trading some of the things we heard as youngins. Mom always came up with the right question or advice at the right moment. Here are a few of those I remembered. I found them entertaining. There are not… Read More »
[June 21, 2023] I’ll be giving a speech honoring our fallen military personnel from WWI to present this weekend. The South Jersey Volunteers for Veterans Boot Memorial will have a three-day display with the names of local citizens who gave their lives for our country. I’m one of the closing ceremony speakers. Please take a look at my… Read More »
[June 20, 2023] Picking Cotton. My first real job was picking cotton at my Grandpappy’s home in southeast Arkansas. I learned many valuable lessons, including that I was not cut out to be a cotton picker. I was ten years old in the Summer of 1962 when I picked cotton for the first time. A “real” job meant… Read More »
[June 19, 2023] Washington Nationals pitcher Trevor Williams speaks out against the Woke LA Dodgers, who recently honored the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence. The Dodgers were virtue signaling over Pride Month like many professional baseball teams have been doing this year. Williams was surely warned not to do this, and I’m sure his career was threatened. Under these… Read More »
[June 18, 2023] Happy Father’s Day to all those who make a difference to their children. Here, I deviate from the commercial, modernist Father’s Day idea. We should not celebrate Fathers … well, in the strict sense of the word. We should be celebrating Dads. Dads are those who raise their children. To be a father is easy.… Read More »
Letters to My Granddaughter, No. 5 (the JFK Election) [June 17, 2023] I was a young kid when Dwight D. Eisenhower was in office, but I do not remember him. Politics was beyond my understanding and appreciation for what that meant. As a eight-year-old, I wasn’t totally ignorant, just nearly so. To me, they were faces in the… Read More »
[June 16, 2023] For good-thinking folk, we can quickly figure out that inviting an anti-Catholic, anti-Christian group to their game will not sit well with fans. And worse, the LA Dodgers will “honor” a hate group for their ‘contributions to society.’ If you thought the Marketing VP of Bud Light was stupid by causing her brand to crash,… Read More »
