[February 17, 2024] If you are one of the many fans of Ammo Grrrll, Susan Vass, at PowerLineBlog, then you’ve already read her latest rant on telling lies and the harm it does.

Letters to My Granddaughter, Epilogue [November 20, 2024] Here is some good news. That skinny small-town boy from the Deep South – and born on the bayou (like the 1969 CCR song) – turned out okay. I would marry and have two children; the happiest days of my life were their birth and their growing up. Nothing is… Read More »
[November 21, 2023] Rule #1 in learning how to live a good life is to realize that nobody owes you nuttin’. This is a valuable lesson that most of us learned as children, but some failed to get the message. Here we have a white female, Gen Z’er, who gets stopped for possible drinking and driving. And now… Read More »
[September 30, 2023] I was only six years old, living in a poor area of Louisiana where money was scarce, and you were rich if you had a spare dollar.

[September 3, 2023] I started this Blog precisely 10 years ago, shortly after receiving notice from the General Officer Management Office (GOMO) that I would be retiring from the U.S. Army the following May of 2014.

[September 1, 2023] Nick Freitas has some common sense commentary on child predators and is brutally clear that the best way to protect children from them is with strong, capable, dangerous fathers. I like a recent YouTube video (5:27 minutes, link here) where he talks about this. Last month, I wrote about child predator Jack Reynolds, advising on… Read More »
[August 20, 2023] Investigations into what caused the apocalyptic blazes on parts of Maui will continue for years and, to no one’s surprise, the outcome will be unsatisfactory. I’ve often written that when leaders are incompetent, bad things happen. Unfortunately, early information from the Maui fire suggests an unusually high degree of government incompetence that made things much… Read More »
[July 27, 2023] If you have an argument with a family member, and you “win” (by any measure of your choice), you have not won. Period. As an early teenager, I had a nasty argument with my mom over money. My logic in arguing with her was flawless. I won easily. It was a slam dunk, and everyone… Read More »
[May 12, 2023] Our betters in the media and government are telling us that we should stop calling “terrorism” by the term terrorism. We all see the world elite working to help us not see the truth, and they are on the front lines of this every day. “You don’t want to be too judgmental. You don’t want… Read More »
[April 26, 2023] It has become increasingly clear that the primary contributor to the draconian COVID lockdowns was due to advice given by Dr. Anthony Fauci.
