That Amazing Amazon

That Amazing Amazon

If you haven’t caught this latest development, Amazon is developing a system to have your deliveries come directly to your home from the fulfillment center via … wireless drone. Yes, that’s right and apparently it’s not a joke. Implementation is st...

The Arlington Cemetery Controversy

The Arlington Cemetery Controversy

Perhaps you have not heard of the controversy looming at this nation’s cemetery. The general policy at Arlington prohibits individuals from leaving personal mementos at the graves. This policy was relaxed at the beginning of the wars in Iraq and Af...

50 Years

50 Years

In anyone’s lifetime there are usually 2, maybe 3 events that prompt that “where were you when …” question. Over the past 50 years there have been more, many more. The 911 attack, the first and second gulf wars starting with a night of “shock & awe...

Truth Consequences

Truth & Consequences

The infamous Mr. Snowdon has once again served up a knuckleball to the NSA. Another round of “traitor” clamors is on the wing and we will be treated to more countless news accounts of how badly he has hurt the country and our intelligence efforts....

Time For A Change

Time For A Change?

When is a change necessary? How do you go about making such a decision and when you do, are you taking time to review your decision to insure you are not acting too hastily? Certainly the President must be going through that now with his HHS Secre...

Profiles In Courage

Profiles In Courage

The book, credited to John F. Kennedy but thought to be the work of his speech writer, Theodore Sorensen, profiled acts of bravery and integrity by eight US Senators throughout the Senate’s history. Needless to say, the current Senate & Congress wou...

Wheres The Outrage

Where’s The Outrage?

It appears that the country has a new policy and practice on how to treat the mentally ill. We’ll just shoot them. As ridicules as it sounds, that is what Miriam Carey faced when her mental issues were left under treated and resulted in an episode...

The New Oath of Congress

The New Oath of Congress

You can view the oath that any congressman/woman take on line. As you will notice, it’s rather generic so in light of the current activities of our Congress members I am going to recommend that the following replace the current oath: [color=crims...

Tokyo 2020

Tokyo 2020

The decision has been made. Tokyo will host the Olympic games of 2020. That is cause for great joy for the citizens of Japan … but is it? With tens of thousands of people displaced by the nuclear issues that developed after the tsunami of a few ye...

The Folly of Youth

The Folly of Youth

Oh to be young again. To act with foolish disregard and savor every moment of life, but one must ask, when does that time end? For one young man, former Pfc Bradley Manning it ended the moment he took it upon himself to break a solemn oath and reve...

Its Real

It's Real !!!

I am dumbfounded …. My government, my dear sweet Uncle Sam today admitted the existence of the infamous Area 51 after decades of denials, sometimes at the end of the barrel of a gun, but denials all the same. How could they have lied and done so for...

Vulnerability 101

Vulnerability 101

In a former life of mine we spent a great deal of time thinking about the vulnerabilities of our enemies and how best to exploit that to our advantage. The more simple the thing is, the easier it is to exploit it. Affect your foe’s most basic elem...

Not Guilty Is Not Innocent

Not Guilty Is Not Innocent

One thing is clear, George Zimmerman cannot claim he is innocent. His hand on his gun took the life of another human being and that is not disputed. Everything leading up to that moment and after that moment is and probably will remain in dispute f...

19 Lost Souls

19 Lost Souls

We Americans are no strangers to tragedy. Unlike some countries, we put our tragedies right on the front page for all the world to see. I suppose that is one of the things we are best at doing, putting ourselves out there for anyone to see, comment...

June 6 1944

June 6, 1944

The second world war called some 16 million into the service to defend the country, but on that fateful day, commonly remembered as D-Day, we took our first steps to gain a foothold in Europe. I saw my share of combat in the military but reading the...

A Soul

A Soul

Like him or loth him, agree or disagree, compliment or complain, one thing even the harshest critic must admit is that this president appears to have a soul. Never in modern times have we had a president that will open himself up to interspection an...

Be Prepared

Be Prepared!

We learned it in the Cub Scouts, and again in the Boy Scouts, and yet again in the Sea Scouts, and if that was not enough, it was preached nearly daily in the military. It makes you wonder just exactly what does it take for us to take such things to...

One Breath At A Time

One Breath At A Time ...

For the past six months I have watched my older sister slowly deteriorate from the debilitating conditions of lung and esophageal cancers. As they slowly close off her airway she suffocates a little more each and every breath. While the combination...

Crossing The Line

Crossing The Line

I remember the first time I read a classified document that, in summary, discussed the US battle plans for the invasion of Canada. I was shocked, appalled, and mortified that we would even consider such a move until I made it to the part of the brie...
