The pro abortion argument fails on both logical and legal grounds. It’s a construct of smoke and mirrors designed to arrive at the desired result with platitudes and unexamined  certainty while avoiding the unpleasant reality.  Chanting slogans and avoiding the unpleasant reality  is what the pro abortion movement is all about.   As Kevin Williamson wrote: ,"the pro-life position is easy to...

The shortest day of the year approaches.  This year it is December 21st.  It is the beginning of our Wheel of the Year.  Yule is a time of joy and hope because the days will begin to grow longer and the sun returns stronger each day.  It is a Sabbat full of eating, drinking and good times.  The Yule log, wassail, and family.  Who could ask for more? We enjoy a table laid out with...

In my household, we like to play board games and the only one that doesn't like to play any kind of video game is my husband. My understanding is, he used to play some first person shooters [FPS] some time ago, but found himself doing nothing except that while he was laid off... so, he quit playing video games. Every Christmas, I buy at least one board or card game for the family to play. We...

This is the second in a series of articles that are talking about the craziest Republicans representing this country at this time. The first article dealt with my three worst people in Congress, Marjorie Taylor-Greene, Louis Goehmert, and Jim Jordan. Of course, the rankings that I am using are totally my opinion and are not based on any consensus opinion among journalists or political...

Even for the current incarnation of Congress, this has been one crazy week. The news from the House of Representatives has revolved primarily over the censure and committee stripping of Paul Gosar for posting an obnoxious anime with an avatar Gosar killing fellow congressperson Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. %The vote to censure was almost along a party line vote {Reps. Cheney and Kinzinger siding...

The song Strawberry fields came into my head and wouldn't leave. So I listened to it on YouTube. Ended up listening to song after song.  So many good songs. Then I remembered there was someone else that liked the Beatles, so Perrie, this is for you. Beatles day !

Sometimes when I am not feeling well I think of things from my past. I don't know why my mind runs back through old memories. One of the better memories I have was watching Saturday morning cartoons. Mixed in was always the Schoolhouse Rock videos. I didn't mind learning a little something from them even though it was a Saturday. They made learning fun. To this day every once in a while one...

Partisanship aside, we are our own worst enemies. Sometimes I believe that I am living in the shadows of the great Will Rogers who famously said when asked about his choice of political party, "I belong to no organized political party, I'm a Democrat." His voice rings as true today as they did back in the 1930s and 1940s. Being a Democrat continues to be an exercise in political futility. Not...

So, as pretty universally accepted by science, if the Universe is everything and is expanding.   What is it expanding into?

I do my best to be a person that puts out positive vibes.  I do know since beginning my path in Wicca that when I put out negative vibes I get negative back and I become stressed, sad, depressed, and even angry.  Being positive is sometimes very difficult for me because my household growing up was extremely negative.  It is an effort for me to put that smile on my face every morning when...

Although I think that most of the responses I will get to this letter will come from those who consider themselves to be on the political right, The target audience for this is actually the moderate and liberal members of society who are allowing themselves to be edged toward totalitarianism and social regression. I will not use the terminology Republican, Independent, or Democrat when...
