Let Mexican bandits and rogue military groups shoot at us and Mexico is silent. But let someone get shot in the commission of a crime and they demand an investigation.
Strange how the Mexican government and activists who want the American South West to be returned to Mexico through the invasion of illegals get more […]
The storm that spawned a couple of tornadoes today was reported as showing rotation even as it passed through Indiana. The radio said there have been 13 January tornados in Indiana in the last decade. Fortunately they passed us over today there were no injuries.
I’m so happy to see Democrat Governor Blanco has everything under control and rebuilt in New Orleans and has moved on to remodeling her offices. But what about that $1B budget shortfall Governor?

I have to wonder if Firefox on Windows is as […]
Two weeks of vacation have come to an end today. So I get up, get ready, pack up all the stuff I brought home to work on, pack the last of the Manicotti and salad for lunch and head for the office. When I get there though I’m in for something of a surprise […]
