Sorry Facebook
Whatever happened to truth in advertising? I found the original Walmart Fan Club ad on Facebook deeply offensive and complete devoid of truth. (I added the word “Avoid.”) First off, one does not—cannot—save money at Walmart. One spends money at Walmart. That’s the only reason people go there. And one does not live better because [...]

American Weekend
A local couple looks forward to a long weekend attending a music festival 120 miles from their mountaintop home. Man gets up early the day before they plan to depart and drives his econobox diesel import 90 miles closer to the event to set up a tent early (he’s a cautious guy) to reserve a [...]
Sarah, was that you?
I see from my site log that a person online from Wasilla visited after clicking a Google search link to an earlier post about SarahPAC one week after Obama took office. Golly. I hope I didn’t hurt anyone’s feelings, especially Sarah’s, with what I said.

Think It’s Bad Now?
Enjoy what could well be our last few months of culturally reinforced American insularity and relative plenitude. But at least put this bit of news in your pipe and smoke it in the meantime. Talk about it with family and friends. Or start digging up your backyard to grow some veggies.
I’m a happy guy despite [...]
This Is My Country Too
Everything Americans think they know, they learned from a televised morality play. It’s all theater. You root for some good guy and boo some bad guy. You pick your own, but you dance to the tune of the men running the show. It’s mind control, pure and simple, and if there is an American immune [...]
Pssst! Wanna see a great performing artist?
Come to my house for a very special concert on Friday night.
Last night I spent at least an hour swapping messages with a new friend on Facebook who happens to be the daughter of an interesting woman who lives nearby. I mentioned an upcoming concert featuring an internationally known fingerstyle guitar player at the absolute [...]
9-11: Something rotten in Denmark?
Seems as if America would like to just forget the horror of September 11, 2001 altogether. But amid growing worldwide skepticism of the veracity of the US government’s official report, it seems a lot of people are refusing to give up searching for credible answers to the baffling events of that fateful day.
9-11 Truthers are [...]
Oh Grow Up
Woman misses flight. Woman flips out. Woman doesn’t want to have a nice day.
