Living during the Great Depression of 2010

I’m not sure why I would want to write about these times. Should we survive as a nation I would just as soon thoughts such as these be lost in the dustbin of time. But, since I’ve taken my imaginary pen to paper, maybe I can share a thought of two. It’s hard to imagine … Continue reading »

China is killing the US according to Donald Trump!

While I do not always agree with Donald Trump, I will always stand by him when he is right. Yesterday, billionaire American real estate mogul Donald Trump, who is “seriously considering” the possibility of making a Presidential run in 2012, has slammed China’s “unfair trade policy” and made digs at the way US was conducing … Continue reading »

Random Post Election Thoughts

Now hold on a sec you crazy Republicans! Two years ago Mr. Barrack Hussain Obama hisself promised me free ‘Bama Bucks’ if I would help get him elected! I did my part sir! Promises were made. Strings were attached Mr. President. And what did I get for my effort. Doddily squat! Where’s my free ride … Continue reading »

Let’s Make November the 2nd happen!

“All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity; but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible.” T.E. Lawrence By his own … Continue reading »

How will the good ship US end up?

One can only guess as to the ultimate fate of our economy. Mid term elections are just weeks away and, if anything, the world and in particular the US Ship of State seems more Helter Skelter than anything else.  Charles Manson aside, I have the sense that some kind of revolution could be just around … Continue reading »

America’s crumbling water distribution system Back in the mid 1800’s heavy cast iron pipes with a life expectancy of 125 years were being laid. Then, around twenty five years later a newer process was developed that resulted in thinner pipes at cheaper cost. These had a life span of about one hundred years. Fast forward … Continue reading »

The Overton Window by Glenn Beck

On an impulse, I recently purchased a book published by Glenn Beck which was titled ‘The Overton Window’. I bought it with the expectation that it would be an extension of the kinds of things Glenn does on his afternoon program which airs on the Fox News. I was wrong. The book is both eye … Continue reading »

That sucking sound you’ll hear shortly is from oil rigs off Brazil’s Coast!

You sure won’t hear anything from the area of the Gulf, however, as President Obama has shut it down. How long this insanity will go on is still open to question. The fact that it is not helping an American economy which is sinking faster than the Titanic is not. The actions of the President … Continue reading »

Now for a little more bull and a new religion!

Northern Spain – Third time was a charm for bull! Let me begin by saying I felt bad for the people that got injured by a bull run amok. But, I could not help but wonder how many in the world actually cheered for the bull named Quesero, who after two previous attempts, managed to … Continue reading »

China and her aircraft killer missile program.

Now why would a country of 1.3 billion people, the vast majority of which live at a subsistence level, want to develop a missile that could take down a US aircraft carrier from 900 miles away? Hmm? A move that, if true, will change the current defense posture of the US. A country that, like … Continue reading »
