Ketchum, ID February 25, 2022 Given what it attempted on Earth, it’s no surprise that the Soviet Union would have a natural interest in a “Red” planet. After launching Sputnik in 1957, the Soviets sent several forays toward Mars. None were successful. But the effort spurred others, including the NASA Mariner 3 expedition, which also […]
February 22, 2022Hailey, ID It’s been eleven years and one month since numerologists had such a field day. Not since January 11, 2011 has a date been so unanimous in its numbers. Yet today is even more momentous. After all, how often does 2/22/22 fall on a Twos-day? It’s a quirky occasion. For such a unique event, […]
Atlanta, GA February 16, 2022 Like a magnate who’s never happy if another mogul has more, LeBron James always looks as if he doesn’t get the respect he thinks he deserves. Perhaps it’s petulance. Maybe it’s pride. Or potentially it’s true. But I’ve always thought, regardless his accomplishments, that LeBron desperately wants his own “flu […]
Atlanta, GA February 10, 2022 Is it finally happening? Are these the weeks…like the first stones from the Berlin Wall…that the Covid Regime began to crumble? It started when Canadian truckers started chiseling the concrete. As cracks formed and the mortar gave way, other drivers hopped in their cabs, started their engines, and plowed through. […]
Atlanta, GA February 4, 2022 Time has no beginning and history has no bound And to this verdant country they came from all around They sailed upon her waterways and they walked the forest tall Built the mines, the mills, and the factories for the good of us all. – Gordon Lightfoot, “Canadian Railroad Trilogy” […]
Atlanta, GA January 17, 2022 A couple days ago, I revealed how I failed a test for drugs…because I refused to consume one. Regarding the pharmaceutical elixirs themselves, I’ve given reasons for reluctance countless times during the last six months, and I need not re-hash all of them here. But I will provide a few more. It’s interesting that despite the dominant […]
Atlanta, GA January 14, 2022 Yesterday we received a decision from nine people as to whether another person can tell hundreds of millions of different individuals what drugs they must take. While many of us had reasons to cheer or jeer the results, not enough found the scenario disturbing. How did Americans come to blithely […]
Atlanta, GA January 10, 2022 Chesterton observed that the modern world is insane. Not so much because it admits the abnormal, but because it cannot recover the normal. We’re now at a point where normality not only appears incapable of being recovered; most people don’t even seem to remember what it was. We think we’re […]
Atlanta, GA January 7, 2022 We know a lot of people who took vaccines for Covid. I guess it worked…because many of them now have it. After two years of neurotic germaphobia, authoritarian lockdowns, economic destruction, unhinged hypochondria, useless mask mandates, irrational fear, catastrophic school closures, never-ending nasal swabs, idiotic floor stickers, unwarranted travel restrictions, […]
Atlanta, GA January 1, 2022 We awoke today to another in a series of damp, unseasonably warm mornings. A layer of fog hugs the ground, like mist engulfing Baskerville Hall. That’s appropriate. The path ahead is rarely clear. But on this New Year’s Day, where we’ve been seems as enigmatic as what’s to come. For […]
