Humanity/Humility
Suburban Boulevard of Commerce
“We drive up and down the gruesome, tragic suburban boulevards of commerce, and we’re overwhelmed at the fantastic, awesome, stupefying ugliness of absolutely everything in sight — the fry pits, the big-box stores … the lube joints, the carpet warehouses … the uproar of signs, the highway itself — clogged Continue Reading
WAKE UP!
For the last year all I hear is some people (pretty much conservatives) calling other people (pretty much liberals), WOKE. What does woke mean? There is no definition, nor can anyone who uses the term explain what it means. I was reading The Week magazine and came across this article Continue Reading
Taking the Train
I like to get up and read the news everyday to see what is going on in the world. I try to read different news outlets to get different perspectives on the stories. One thing that stands out to me is this constant gloom and doom that is spread through Continue Reading

WHAT DO I THINK? (Part 2)
I split this blog post into two parts due to its length. Didn’t want you to have to cover too much ground in one sitting. Remember what Tony said in his post about our founding fathers. They established our form of government, the constitution and bill of rights as a Continue Reading
WHAT DO I THINK? (Part 1)
It has taken me awhile to write this blog. I knew what I wanted to talk about and what I wanted to say but wasn’t ready to write. Actually, we were too frigging busy with family things, and I didn’t make the time. Then I read the 2 recent posts Continue Reading
