Sorry folks, but that’s the only model I’m going to reference going forward. Because to our economy, it’s really the only model that matters. The hard truth is this country and its leaders are, once again, following the wrong models. I do a lot of research online, meaning I click on a lot of stories […]
Someone had to say it. Might as well be me. While it’s my nature to be contrary — few can argue both sides of a debate the way I can — this isn’t about being contrary or even politics. This is about freedom. And we’re losing it by the day in Colorado. As I write […]
Admit it. You have no clue whatsoever about the coronavirus. It’s the only logical conclusion I can come to after two plus months of information, misinformation, intentional lies and politics about this latest corona-type virus foisted upon the world by — yet AGAIN — China. As a matter of fact, the last part of my […]
If you recall the movie, it’s about a bunch of idiotic characters chasing after stolen money buried under a “W” somewhere along the California coast. I mistakenly identify that “W” with the Wai’alae Country Club signature golf hole, which has the W behind the green as one approaches and looks through the W into the […]
Once again the conscience of America is boiling over with opinions, insults and ad hominem. I have watched with delight, horror and shock at the funny memes, insults and trolling post after post on someone’s opinion post on Facebook about the Super Bowl halftime show.

Unless you’ve been hiding in a fallout shelter since Jan. 8 — possibly a little before, although preselling is banned and I don’t want to make false accusations, but those Lions know who they are — there’s an event of which you’re likely aware. It’s Grand Junction Lions Club carnival and raffle ticket season. It’s […]
I bet you sang that, because I was. Although truth be told, I’m still singing the Andy Williams version because I enjoy the old days and wonderful memories they brought when things actually were wonderful this time of year. So you must be thinking: What’s the most dangerous time of year in Colorado? I could […]
My church recently posted a question on Facebook: “What are some of your Christmas traditions?” That simple question, together with learning my dad’s baby sister passed this week and there’s only my dad left from parents and their family siblings, stirred up even more the swirling cauldron in my mind that has me longing for […]
In other words, maybe it’s it about time to have fewer irons in the fire — and a whole lot fewer fires. If you’re anything like me, you understand the analogy. I mean, it’s OK to have a few varying fires — after all, I’ve heard for decades variety is the spice of life — […]
Although in this day and age of round-the-clock news, too much information based on misinformation and a seemingly unending barrage of what’s someone’s “truth,” it’s not getting any easier. Now I could write column after column until my retirement on individual topics related to the above statement, because, let’s face it, everyday there’s something to go […]
