[December 12, 2023] I am fortunate to live in a rural community with a low crime rate, good and courteous people, reliable utilities, and proper local governance.

[December 6, 2023] My wife accuses me of shooting fish in a barrel when discussing the failures of “celebrities.” My sister says I’m picking on retards, and it’s unseemly.

[December 5, 2023] Nine year old Holden Amenta is a kid hero.
