[October 19, 2023] The photograph of the crew of the Boeing B-17 “The Memphis Belle” is iconic. Led by USAAF Captain Robert Morgan, the crew flew 29 missions altogether during World War II.

[October 17, 2023] When faced with an invader that propagates the atrocities we have seen in the recent Hamas incursion into Israel, the only solution is to utterly destroy their culture.

Ultimately, that means destroying the Palestinian culture of terrorism.… Read More »
[October 16, 2023] She had a great body, was content and cooperative, and had a sweet temperament. And she seemed to like me. Every afternoon after school, I visited her, visited her family, talked to her, and helped as best I could. I was 11, and Bessy was 6, and she always seemed to appreciate me being there… Read More »
[October 15, 2023] Just now, coming to light, we are hearing that the Veterans Affairs is promoting abortion and suggesting men can get pregnant (link here). A leaked VA video promotes abortions and more “medically accurate” terminology, such as “person who is pregnant” over pregnant women.

[October 14, 2023] I’ve had doubts about NYC Mayor Eric Adams, particularly his pandering to special interest groups and missed opportunities. But, I missed his Sunday, October 10th rally, where he made it clear that New York stands with Israel. His remarks were made the day after the Hamas terror attacks on Israel. He says that he not… Read More »
[October 11, 2023] The sun burned our skin, and the humidity made us feel like we were suffocating. I remember the relentless sun, incessant bugs, circling buzzards (lots of buzzards), people dragging their kids about, and some adults dressed up in old-fashioned military uniforms. At the time, I wondered why my Dad had taken this family trip, about… Read More »
[October 9, 2023] Humor is an art form. Art comes in many forms: painting, sculpture, literature, architecture, cinema, theater, music, and video/humor. One of my favorite commentators on the web is Amala Ekpunobi who alerted me to a great piece of comedic stereotyping, title White People on a Hike. I loved it and laughed’ nearly spitting my morning… Read More »
[October 6, 2023] Steve Hayward of PowerLineBlog has a good article out yesterday (link here) that attempts to explain why “utopian socialists since Plato” and the political “left” hate two-parent families. The reason, he says, is that intact is that a two-parent family is the greatest privilege today, practiced mostly by whites. Steve includes three charts that are… Read More »
[October 4, 2023] “For the hundredth time, Douglas, stop picking your nose while eating.” Mom was a stickler for good manners because she was interested in civilizing us kids. She knew that well-mannered children who say “please” and “thank you” and know how to shake hands, present a genuine smile, and listen politely to adults, then adults will… Read More »
[October 3, 2023] France proposes crushing the world’s economy (and their own), one stupid idea at a time. Emmanuel Macron’s government is actively trying to reduce carbon emissions, which they are doing in peculiar ways. France is looking to restrict air travel within their country and for everyone radically. Maybe France hasn’t figured it out yet, but tourism… Read More »
