No, not like the ones you see in Portland, Seattle, Minneapolis and other major United States cities. Besides, those revolutions aren’t really open, they’re becoming more and more closed by the day. What else would you call orders for police to stand down, instructions for citizens to just give the violent rioters what they want […]
I’m writing this column now because by the time the next issue comes out, this will all be hitting too close to home. By July 22, I’ll be spending every second after that delivery packing up and readying my oldest daughter for her move to Denver for college. With the coronavirus pandemic messing up her […]
There’s so much going on I’m at a point where I don’t want to write this column. Then again, I’ve had a hard time writing the past several columns. It’s not because of what I see happening in the world. That’s easy. So many bad actors, so little space. It’s because of what I think […]
Yep, I’m about to do something I rarely do in my columns: lump Democrats and Republicans together. But as I roll, some in a good way, some in a bad way. Despite all the political and social ills I’ve lived through in my almost 59 trips around the sun, I’ve always maintained one belief: 99 […]
But first let me address a circumstance I created. My last column took snarky to another level for a few folks. It also elevated my version of humor to others. In retrospect, I can see how both reactions occurred. I wrote that column in frustration. Not only for me, but also students; fellow citizens; folks […]
Did you get the blessing? I recall when I did. Napoleon Polis had just shuttered the state — because New York and California did and like all good, lacky liberals who want to be president do, he fell in line — the night before St. Patrick’s Day because he declared himself the only expert in […]
Which is just how we’ve handled and overcome the many novel coronaviruses of the past 30 years. And this doesn’t mean Covid-19 goes away — because we’re still fighting strains of the Spanish flu — but it does mean it’s damned well past time to handle Covid-19 like Americans throughout history have handled any invasion […]
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 […]
