In superficial light the poll showing the ajority believes government doing too much would seem good for Republicans and I’d like to hope so. But in his quest to be a compasionate conservative George Bush became part of the drunken spending crowd and certainly enough Americans realize this. The sad thing is the choice […]

Government’s censorship of political speech has gotten to the point that now postal workers can decide what merits delivery based on their own views. Now what do you suppose would happen if a Christian postal worker decided mail advertising the Occult shouldn’t be delivered? If you don’t know the answer to that then […]

The link between abortion and depression must be solid enough that it can no longer be hidden if a British paper is publishing a story on it.

I’ve never been much of a fan of either constant velocity transmissions or Honda’s Hondamatic clutchless shifting but I’d sure be interested in finding out how it all comes together in the concept DN-01 recently shown in Tokoyo. It looks part scooter, part CB-R with a few CB-F charateristics thrown in and powered […]

I’ve not had a flu shot in probably 10-12 years and don’t really intend to get one anytime soon. As a matter of fact I wonder f they’re even effective or just another way for the Pharma industry to suck money out of our pockets.

As elections draw near don’t forget to check out the GOA 2006 Congressional Candidate Ratings Guide and see how your state rep rates. It’s always easier to see where an incumbent stands since there is at least a 2 year voting record to review so it is often to the advantage of an anti- […]

A police chief who recommended his deputies lay off the burgers is resigning. But, he should have gotten a medal.

May I be the first to call for strict 7 day waiting periods and background checks on all club purchases and T times .

SGI’s suit against ATI looks suspiciously like a back door attack on AMD. This could get especially interesting since SGI has been using these cards in their own workstations for a few years which would indicate at least tacit approval.

As I watch how different the parties view what constitutes “mudslinging” or “going negative” I can’t help but notice that the Democrat party and Ned Lamont are waging probably the dirtiest campaign in the Nation as they do everything they can to defeat no-longer-liberal-enough Joe Lieberman. I have been a Lieberman foe for many […]

For all my Hoosier neighbors just a quick reminder that we switch off of Daylight Savings Time this weekend. I must admit that I’m considering staying on DST year round…maybe then the Missus will get to things on time.

Weather forecasts are a fun if sometimes frustrating venture. Today, for example, I’m looking at the coming weekend weather on three different weather websites (Weather Underground, Weather Channel and Indy Star) and I’m getting 3 completely different outlooks just for Sunday.
So I have to ask… if 3 weathermen cannot agree on what it’s going to […]

Yet again I heard this morning someone tried to rob a diner in Fishers only to face a hail of bullets from the employee. Let the politicians continue to commission panels to discuss possible solutions to crime…. Hoosiers are taking matters into their own hands. I’m still trying to figure out if the citizens […]

An homosexual teenager murders an 11 year old boy who refused his passes and threatened to expose him as “gay” and what does the Telegraph do? They make excuses for the murder!! In American politics I’m always hearing “but the world hates us!”. You know what? If that is the way the […]

It’s a long paper (67 pages) but worth at least skimming if not thoroughly reading, the likley link between television and autism, or more closely the link between the rise of cable television and autism. Since before cable there wasn’t enough programming to use your television as a babysitter. I’d recommend anyone still using their […]

It is sad that in England an honest shop owner cannot own a pistol to keep under his counter but a 14 year old gir can get sub machineguns for a drug gang. Society focuses entirely too much on law that curbs the rights of the citizenry because it’s easier than actually catching crooks. […]

“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may […]

I would say only in Chicago but I can think of a 1/2 dozen other places that I’m surprised this headline hasn’t already come true.

Gee, I thought it was the conservatives who were fascists? Oh, but its not the same thing when you’re RIGHT, right? I guess that’s why they want to hold war crimes trials for those who reject human caused global warming….

So Wendy’s hired some illegals and tried to get them into a Federal program to sponsor the illegals for citizenship. But when Wendy’s missed the filing deadline, being it is illegal for the illegals to work, Wendy’s had to let them go. What do the illegals do? They sue Wendy’s!
This rates right up their […]

In these days of relative morality it’s not uncommon to see someone go against their own stated beliefs if it’ll get them something free. So imagine my joy at not only seeing people do the right thing at their own expense but also seeing a thumb stuck in the eye of Hugo Chavez. The […]

The town has named Keith Gill as chief of police to replace Gary Edwards and interim chief Jerry Cunningham. While I was pulling for Jerry who I know and trust I can also understand why the town would want an experienced outsider to take the post. Jerry worked with Gary since before Gary became […]
