[January 28, 2026] The dead. Like so many kids, I had a morbid interest in death and in those things that can kill you. From tales told by my Mom that I had a preference for thrilling experiences, a curiosity for “scary things,” and this meant I wanted a shrunken head for my twelfth birthday. I didn’t want… Read More »
[January 27, 2026] I thought it was most appropriate today to share an idea that’s been on my mind since the anti-ICE riots started in Minnesota. In ChangingMinds.org, the authors list 36 military stratagems, and I’ll focus on one of them – #20 Fish in Troubled Waters to show how on-the-ground tactics are working for the “protestors.” This… Read More »
[January 26, 2026] As a little boy raised in the Deep South, I was moved by the culture of the South and proud of its military traditions. Like many of my friends and those boys before me, we were also disappointed that the South had lost the Civil War. But, I would study this “War Between the States”… Read More »
[January 25, 2026] As Winter Storm Fern [an ironic name] races across the country, it means now is the time for snow memes. Remember, I’m a true Southerner in body and in accent, but living in the “North” gives me a weird perspective on winter. I find that wintery snow storms are an admixture of cold, beauty, danger,… Read More »
[January 24, 2026] As my neighbors and I, located in South Jersey [note I didn’t write New Jersey], are preparing for a large snow storm coming to many parts of the U.S., I’m going to highlight a short take from Nick Freitas. He has provided some timely advice to Bernie Sanders’ followers of the world about the “right”… Read More »
[January 23, 2026] There’s a quote from Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn that is incredibly inspiring. It goes something like this: “One man who stopped lying could bring down a tyranny.” The power of truth can truly lead to significant change, and we can see it causing the fall of oppressive regimes. The fall of the tyrant is my theme today.… Read More »
[January 22, 2026] It’s no secret that I grew up as the son of a railroad man. As part of that legacy, I was educated in the subculture of the behind-the-scenes of railroading. An early lesson was about railroad cars (usually boxcars) with chalk or waterproof crayon graffiti. Plus, there it was, clearly written, Bozo Texino, with a… Read More »
[January 21, 2026] An ancient question continues to raise its head, even in modern times, and asks what is the greatest temptation of the most powerful people. Once we are in a position of authority, the temptation that immediately emerges is how to use that power for the “best possible reasons.” Why not use that power to get… Read More »
[January 20, 2026] By now, most know that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has given his tacit approval “by all means possible” to resist ICE in his state. He has approved any behavior that pushes back against law enforcement, removing illegal immigrants. This is a green light for violence. An anti-ICE mob disrupted the Sunday morning religious service at… Read More »
[January 19, 2026] As history tells us, we are not positive how the American Flag all came about. With this, the 250th Anniversary of our country, and our Radio show very much involved in what I believe will be one of the largest Veteran displays of opened Casket Flags in America over the 2026 Memorial Day weekend. Actually,… Read More »
