Left, and Right, or right and wrong?

I read the main boards daily, but rarely comment. Most of what I see is based on the Left - Right dichotomy. In my opinion the American people need to be more concerned with what's right and wrong with our nation,and less by the letter after the name. A (D) or an (R) that follows …

Wackos in Waco?

On April 19, 1993 the American government's siege on the Branch Davidian compound in Waco Texas came to a fiery end. I was reminded by this article, We’re All Branch Davidians Now. The author put a different perspective on the events that have followed since then. It remin …

The Choices We Made?

I wrote this article for my now defunct first blog, it died in a horrible computer glitchy accident. It was written about two years ago in a dark self righteous mood, but I feel there is merit in these words.   So far I've written about The Main Stream Media, Government, an …

Family-Sized, Individual-portions

Hey my friends, I'm attending my first poetry class, and I'm tasked with writing two poems. So, I thought I'd torture my friends, er entertain my friends, I hope. A little history, since I was thirteen I've read about two to three books a month. That's about 900 books in forty ye …

The Ubiquitous Cell Phone

It seems everyone has a cell phone these days. I went without a telephone, cell or otherwise for more than a decade, hence my outlook on this communication device is different from most people. And yes I too, now have a cell phone, but I tend to use it more like a land line leavi …

Utopian Courts

As Americans retake their country through taxpayer funded political campaigns, and a truly free press unhindered by corporate handlers. A free press will be able to chronicle the nefarious deeds of our leaders, both public and private. When we learn what has happened to our count …

Two Party Follies...

To my friends, you always ask penetrating questions of me. Thank you for keeping my honest. That is why I love our gentle banter. Your comments left on my last article sparked this tome. As I knew my answer to your questions would be longer than any comment I should leave. Blocka …

Muted Media?

In a previous article I wrote that to take back America we need to do a bottom up approach. Starting by taking control of our city councils to county commissions, and then our state governments. Once citizens have peaceably retaken those institutions, then the people would need  …

Taxpayer Funded Campaigns?

This started as a comment I was going to leave on T1Truth's page to a series they've written; Blame Washington or the Real Root Cause? And, Newsvine Presidential Politics Voting Poll Results. It grew so large I figured I'd just post it here, Thank you T1Truth for the inspiration. …

Dance Night...

Hi friends, I have another piece of art I'd like to share. This was a project for my drawing class and the assignment was to draw a shoe in pastels. This subject was pulled from a box of shoes my instructor provided, she said this was one of her father's shoes. This is the first …

Ode to Coffee

Ah, an ode to the order of the coffee. Just the wiff, the first smell of coffee in the morning can make me smile, and raise an eyelid. The odor, strong and rich...

And, Now the News

News at Eleven, Coming up the News, And, now the News, all those phrases used to mean something. Now, not so much, to steal a current phrase. Clichés and gimmicks, graphics and the teaser, that is what is called News today.

The Check-Out Line

This story has been rambling around my head for a couple hours and needs voice. Note: none of it is real, much of it is a montage of many events and observations.
