A (formerly) Far East located web site devoted to The Resistance, discussion of all things political, travel, women, golf, women,adventure, and did I mention women?
I have not been able to post for the last two months for many reasons. It’s been a hard couple of months. Between making a pilgrimage back to the sacred soil of my Alma Mater and then on to Shopping Mall – which, thanks to both of them being unmasked

By highlighting the absurdity of the GOP attempts to gaslight the nation: Over at Trump’s propaganda network, they appear pretty unhappy about it. Gutfield is terrible.

I wrote this post 4 years ago on the eve of the election. It’s truly frightening that we are here again. Nothing has really changed- and it’s worth re-reading. That’s where the land of my birth is today. Remember this scene from the end of the movie, Wall Street? That’s
