Trip up on the Shin was great! I still have yet to understand why within 40 minutes of boarding any train, I am fast asleep. Both me and the S.O. heads on each others shoulders sawing logs while the country side went whizzing by. Got some good pix, but I

It would seem God has weighed in on the Supreme Court debate.
Just found out that William Rehnquist has died. Sad news for America, because I always felt he did an excellent job navigating the judicial minefield that both parties had created by asking the courts to support their political agendas. A great man. May God give you rest and peace. The

The Nancy Kissel case is over. The papers having wrung every bit of juicy newsprint out if they could, are now free to go back to their normal pursuits. As for Nancy, well she probably needs to take up reading and become friendly with the prison matron…..she is going to

I was rightly reprimanded for an extremely poor attempt at levity in a previous post. I rightfully deserved to get my head slapped and to anyone I offended I offer a sincere and heartfelt apology. Waking up this morning is like reading a tale of biblical disaster. Consider if you

Yesterday was the official kickoff of the election season. As a result the election speaker trucks were on the road: That is a DPJ（民主党） truck preaching the message about why Koizumi needs to go. Before then I had come across a Communist Party truck and all they could talk about

This post is verbatum from Soldiers for the Truth, Hack’s (former) web site that is still being maintained by some truly great Americans. The most recent posting has words of warning for Rummy and his legions of sycophants: An Interview with Lt. Gen. Hal Moore, Combat Commander Part I By

Tonight, Casablanca was on TV. As I have noted before, I love that movie, as it symbolizes a time when Hollywood made movies : a) with a plot and b) actually had some quality acting in them. Also its not a PC movie. I was thinking about that the other

The S.O. and I debated whether to play golf today. I finally threw her a bone and offered to take her up to Tohoku ( northern Japan when I go up there next week on business). So with that resolved, we went to play golf. I’m glad I did. I
