[March 5, 2024] I’ve always been intrigued by attempts to “prove” that stories in the Bible are true. One I find most interesting is the claim that Noah’s Ark was found, likely on Mount Ararat, in modern-day Turkey. The idea of “proof” harks back to the idea that if we could only scientifically prove one story true, then… Read More »
[March 4, 2024] Amala Ekpunobi has done it again with a video (link here) showing a “trans woman” telling the world that “her” dog is transgender. Of course, all sane people know this to be impossible, but the reason I highlight the idea, other than it becoming popular, is that this is what happens when good people fail… Read More »
[February 26, 2024] There was once a time where we in America could make good predictions about the future, our children would live better than us, cars and airplane travel was safer, crime was falling, wars were less likely, and our families were considered important.

[February 20, 2024] Too many feminists, politicians, and radical leftists are attacking manhood in the West. However, some are pushing back on this ideology by giving us well-reasoned arguments about why manhood should be preserved.

[February 16, 2024] Understanding the thinking of your enemies and friends is at the pinnacle of successful senior leadership.

[February 14, 2024] First things first: Happy Valentine’s Day! Now, on to a more serious topic. Do U.S. military Generals and Admirals take cognitive tests? The answer is ….. wait for it … “NO.” That is the answer for good or bad, and I think the reason is that these senior leaders are surrounded by brutally honest professionals… Read More »
[February 13, 2024] Alexandr Solzhenitsyn wrote that “the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being.”1 If it were only so easy to find evil people and remove them. Solzhenitsyn’s idea is that this is impossible. But some good news, the rescue of two hostages out of southern Gaza. The daring rescue is… Read More »
[February 12, 2024] The dating game. It sure has changed over the past decade, and if you’ve not been paying attention, then you’ve missed some fantastic debates among men and women. Rich Cooper “is an entrepreneur, private equity investor, content creator … and high performance coach.” He often discusses “red flags” for women and I have a list… Read More »
[February 8, 2024] As a teenager, I saw that America was changing, sometimes fast and flashy like a county fair carousel and also slow and sleepy like a hound dog taking a nap on the front porch. My parents would tell us kids about the “good old days” when they walked miles to school and then had to… Read More »
[February 7, 2024] You may wonder why I’m writing about Nazi Ernst Udet, a man who oversaw the failure of the German Luftwaffe during the early years of WW2.
