I don’t mean our government, which is always moving but never moves to benefit the people, only itself. Yes, it’s sold “for the people” in every form it has taken over recorded history, but history always shows when government grows, the people suffer at its hands and in the end. And if you can’t see […]
I mean, we say it all the time when we hear of someone passing. Even more when someone dies at the hands of a violent event. And of course, in this case I’m talking about Charlie Kirk. I could also be talking about the young woman murdered on the train or the kids killed in […]
The quote from Michael Corleone is my second favorite quote from “The Godfather.” I can’t tell what my favorite is, because we live in a woke world and the left would come after me, again, with vengeance. Then again, it’s also the reason I shouldn’t go into what I think were Jimmy Kimmel’s funniest moments […]
Yes, I have to write about it. What happened on September 10th is simply too big to ignore. But don’t start thinking I have some poignant or uber-intellectual thought to add that is above and beyond. I don’t. Many will use those last two lines as the source of some low-level humor or insult. And […]
I’ll ask for grace as this column is being written with no notes, outline or even a topic on my mind. Sadly ironic, I just wrote my last column all about how I write columns with what’s on my mind the night before, morning of deadline. Also noted how my thinking would now change as […]
And in my world of overthinking even the most trivial of thoughts, that can be a very good thing, or a very bad thing. It’s kind of like the old proverb about the two wolves; it depends on which one I feed. In other words, this brain was made for rabbit holes and common sense. […]
Yeah, a bit of a corny title. And let’s be honest, we’re not living life as intended unless we have hundreds of days that can be described this way. But I don’t know how else to describe this past Wednesday in particular. Especially given the range of emotions leading up to the day, the day […]
And here you thought I would be writing something about our out-of-control government agencies once again. If you hang around to the end, you’ll see that is exactly what I am doing. Well, about quasi-government agencies as an analogy, that is. Of which technically, there really are none. See folks, with government, it’s like the […]
Colorado’s fiscal mess isn’t the result of bad luck. It’s the result of bad decisions. And now, Gov. Jared Polis has called a special legislative session to clean it up, hoping Coloradans won’t notice who created the mess in the first place. The recent federal legislation, dubbed the “One Big Beautiful Bill” or HR1, triggered […]
As a conservative, I often get accused of wanting to live in the past. And no matter who the accusation comes from, as I hear it from ALL sides, I have to admit my answer will always tend to be yes. And I’d have to say, and maybe it’s all because while I know the […]
