It's a continuing “big” news story-- the earth is warming up. But they no longer use “global warming” to describe it. There are two many questions that pop up at different times that seem to contradict the fear to which the left-environmentalists insist the world succumb. For instance, the first week of September in the … Continue reading The Climate Change Strike(out)

Gates
I don't know if “Watergate” was the first use of a coined term about a government coverup, but the liberals and Mainstream Media have provided a few of their own: Sweat-gate: CNN Brian Stelter tried to catch President Trump in a lie during his trip to Fayetteville, N.C. Stelter tweeted: Trump just said there are … Continue reading Gates
Typewriters and Monkeys Part II
Occasionally you hear someone say something like “It makes me feel like I'm part of something bigger.” Usually inspired by looking out over a mountain range, or flying above the country high enough to see the patchwork of fields and farms below. There are accounts of divers coming in close contact with a great whale, … Continue reading Typewriters and Monkeys Part II
Typewriters and Monkeys
Some of us remember learning to type on a typewriter. Not a keyboard but a mechanical typewriter. Yeah, we're old. "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." That's the sentence we all learned to type; it contains each letter of the alphabet. Typewriters took more effort than today's modern keyboards; it actually took … Continue reading Typewriters and Monkeys

Democrat AND Christian?
I saw a bumper sticker on a car that said "Democrat and Christian." I just about drove off the road. I will take to task any Christian who stands as a Democrat today. I suppose like "RINO" (Republican In Name Only) there could be a "DINO" but what would be the point? To believe that … Continue reading Democrat AND Christian?
Across the Border
What are those who come and stand at our border wanting entrance into America thinking? Do they see a better life, a future of having more than they've ever had before? Are they yearning to become a citizen of the greatest country in world because of freedoms they have not had in their own country? … Continue reading Across the Border
Houseboat Dreams
I know a man who dreamed of retiring, buying a houseboat, and spending some years floating up and down the Mississippi River with his wife and occasionally having kids and grandkids and friends and family spend some time with them on their houseboat. It was his idea of a camper, but this one was for … Continue reading Houseboat Dreams
