During the last week of August and over the holiday in September, the S.O. and I traveled to the island of Corsica, or Haute Corse, as the French refer to it. We had wanted to go someplace different and we wanted to be on the Mediterranean Sea. Corsica delivered for

THIS IS NOT NORMAL. THIS IS NOT HOW AMERICA IS SUPPOSED TO BE.

Probably one of the most disturbing things about the advent of the current dark times we live in is to see the number of people selling their souls to the demon that is Trump and villainy he espouses. For the prior military folks such as John Kelly, the sin is

There is a LOT to talk about, most particularly Mr. Kelly’s abomination of a press conference on Thursday. He should have stayed away from the microphone and heeded some good advice about his boss. It’s practically a saying from the old country: If you elect a raging sociopath with a dead soul, don’t

The weather in Germany these past two days has been glorious, in sharp contrast to the misery that is going on across the Atlantic in the land of my birth. I’ve got plenty to say on the selfishness and cruelty that the orange asshole is inflicting on America, but as

It was a long week down in the land of milk and honey, but got back Friday and have spent the week recuperating. The days were long and I logged a lot of miles around Yisrael. Speaking of roads, I had to get out on Friday instead of staying to
