[February 1, 2026] Ken LaCorte runs a social media platform where he “takes on controversial topics.” I like that about anyone who is also a likely brutal truth teller. LaCorte takes on the topic that has been in the news lately, why are liberal women so unhappy? It turns out that they really are. See the full video… Read More »
[January 31, 2026] Science is changing the way we view our most ancient ancestors, the Neanderthals. In a video by Highly Compelling, he refers to this as the Neanderthal Problem That Scientists Don’t Want to Discuss. The “problem” is that our understanding of human development is wrong. Why does this matter? Besides setting the record straight, it tells… Read More »
[January 30, 2026] Since the days of being a babe (early 1950s), I would sit in front of a small black and white television set watching a children’s series, The Howdy Doody Show. My Mom claims it was my favorite, and she saw it as good ole wholesome fun. But there was more. Howdy Doody was a marionette… Read More »
[January 29, 2026] Every person has something to offer. It doesn’t matter whether you are young or old, smart or ignorant, good-looking or ugly, big or small; each of us has something worthwhile to give to our families, communities, or our nation. We also have a moral obligation to do so, not in a way that points fingers,… Read More »
[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 »
