We Have To Pass Obamacare To See What’s In The Bill

I’m sure that when the founding fathers labored relentlessly for days, weeks and months to pound out a system of government of the people and by the people, this is exactly what Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, James Madison, Ben Franklin, George Washington and all the rest had in mind.

Can You Cast A Vote as well as you Can Cast a Fly?

I believe that when a person picks up a Fly Rod and performs any sort of cast into the water they are creating a moment that goes well beyond the possibility of catching a fish.

This is a credit card commercial. And as much as I hate credit cards companies for preying on college kids and generally fueling the debt-run society we currently live in, I have to admire this Yvon Chouinard credit card commercial. It ran during the Academy Awards of which I didn’t watch one minute, but [...]

West Point Cadets Earning Ski Patrol Certificates

My Science Is Best Because I’m Better Than You Are

One of the problems we face today is the vast separation between the elitist intellectuals and the rest of the normal world. Science is a fascinating field and part of what makes it work is the open discussion of facts and theories. What happens when the “common man” decides to get involved in the debate?
I [...]

Global Warming Will Destroy Us All Because Of Talk Radio

I guess if the “settled science” that had determined that man-made global warming was destroying the planet earth is no longer deemed reliable to support the scam, then let’s blame someone or something else.
True to form, the warming fear mongers side step truth if divert attention away from the problem. Sen. John [...]
