If you wonder why kids today are stupid, why they cannot comprehend the American Dream, it is because their history professors don’t know history themselves. Or, knowing it don’t like it and want it rewritten in their own ideal. The saying goes that the victor writes the history which is as it should be. But [...]
I guess it is natural that with the fall of real estate prices in the United States, and the advent of Real Estate Tourism (Europeans taking bus tours looking for real estate bargains in the US) that other markets should follow to keep pace with competitive pressures from the United States. Interesting to note that [...]
It appears President Bush is ready to back McCain-Liberman “Kyoto lite”… now that the Earth is heading into a cooling trend we “must act now”. And you idiots think Bush is a “radical right-wing conservative”? You’re all nuts… This is the kind of liberal insantity coming from McCain, Bush and the national Republican party which [...]

I love the media fear mongering going on in Flori-duh. They found an Anti-Tank Grenade Launcher which was seized while busting up a crime ring (kudos on the bust btw) and they’re trotting it out for all to see as some horrific weapon of mass destruction. What you have to read closely to find is [...]
Three divergent articles on global warming, or the lack thereof, today. The first one is on the lack of temperature rise since 1998 which is a pretty startling piece of information to read from the BBC. Second up is how the lack of major disasters in the last couple of years (where did those forecast [...]
So I finally get around to calling about ordering the Tsukayu Jumbo Strong hard bags for the VTX only to find out they are shipped from Japan and it takes 6 weeks go get them… I guess it’s not a terrible hardship having to wait until mid May to get them but I had hoped [...]
This will end well…. Can we put the Argentine president in a room with Maggie Thatcher for 10 minutes and get this settled? Again? Seems more humane than killing all those sheep residing in the Falklands… and would make a wonderful YouTube video. Otherwise, GW may have to let Britain have a hand full of [...]
