Truth Matters

Growing up parents and teachers said tell the truth! In court or when taking oaths we swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but, and a witty saying advises how truth will set you free. Virtually everything in life starts off based on honesty, trust and truth. Truth usually boils down to what we saw, heard or read somewhere, as best we recall. Or remembering what we personally said or did to some one or about...

Pander Perfect Hillary

Wasn’t she swell! The perfect little grandma beaming from ear to ear, delivering her studiously-rehearsed talking points on demand, on message, like a delicious batch of cookies for a famished grandchild. What we have here is possibly the world’s best interviewer for a job, any job, including President of the United States, who can’t do the job. Just look at her job history, if you can call it that.

Us, things around us, even the world itself are all in flux: aging, mutating, decaying, eroding, slowing, cooling, dying. Take atoms and molecules. They aren’t at rest. They’re in motion trying to break their bonds to escape the confines of subatomic space. Laws of physics keep...

Deadly Political Ignorance

A few years after WWII and into Harry S. Truman’s presidency Winston Churchill, having been ousted as Prime Minister by a growing socialist electorate, gave a radio address warning of an Iron Curtain descending across Europe, a Soviet influence quickly developing into stalemate between the USSR and the west, henceforth called The Cold War. This geopolitical reality shaped the course of events for the next 40yrs until...
