People are losing jobs all over the place.  No news there.  My own family hasn't been unaffected.  One of my sons has recently been advised that he, along with his co-workers, are being forced to take 10 furlough days.  That is, they have to take 10 days without pay by August, with four of these days taken by the end of March.  He and his wife are thankful they still are working but for a young couple just starting out, this is a blow to their incomes.  This will...

One of my favorite sayings is "The proof is always in the pudding."  I'm sure alot of you say that from time to time.  The problem is the pudding takes a while to cool down and then when it's time no one is around to discuss the results. I was thinking about that when I read the news release about Ben Stein.  You remember, the guy who was so controversial with his documentary, "Expelled-No Intelligence Allowed" a few months ago? Many poo-pooed the whole idea that t...

"These actions were so profound that it leads you to believe there was a tremendous indifference to human life."  Over and over again we read the same sort of disturbing but true stories.  They are getting just a bit too common with increasing frequency.  There seems to be no end in sight.  But this is not fiction.  It's not made up.  It's real honest to goodness evil that lurks in the hearts and minds of people.  Stuff that novels are made up of.&nb...

Are you kidding me?  That's about all I can say about that right now.    http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/01/25/impeachment-begins-blagojevich-embarks-pr-blitz/

I scanned the newspaper carefully.  Nope, nothing.  Not a thing about the tens of thousands that marched yesterday on Capitol Hill for the unborn.  These, that care about the unborn children marched together in solidarity were not even given a moment's notice by Obama.  He did not address them in person or by phone.  I wonder if there were any in the crowd protesting who just days before were cheering at his swearing in party? "Obama has expressed his...

I got this notice from my husband's office today:  FYI There's going to be a change coming tomorrow for cell phone users.  It's not a good one either. Cell phone numbers go public this week and will be released to 20 telemarketing companies tomorrow.  So that means we will start to receive unwanted sales calls on our cell phones. The bad news is we will be charged for these calls.  To stop this from happening call the following number from your cell phone: ...

My, what a difference four years makes.  How many remember the last inauguration?  How many remember that Bush was asked to tone down his pomp and circumstance in 2005?  By the Democrats of course.  Today I'm not hearing any such outcry from the Dems for the most lavish inauguration celebration on record.  Some are estimating the bill for this "party" will be upwards to $150 million.  Excuse me but I thought we were in some sort of recession?&nb...

I would like to begin by saying that my thoughts and prayers are for those innocents caught or trapped in the middle of all this and cannot escape.   There are innocent men, women and children with no recourse but to hide and wait out this terrible time in and around the City of Gaza.  Let's get some things straight.  Let's look at the facts.  Let's not get caught up in emotion.  Hamas is an evil, wicked, murderous organization with a goal clearly stated....

Thomas Jefferson.  Remember him?   Well he was pretty prolific in his day.  He sure had alot of wisdom leaving lots of it behind for us in written form.  The question is do we listen to history.......at all?  You know the saying.  If we don't heed the history of the past we are sure doomed to repeat it in the present.  It's sure looking like we're not listening or heeding, that's for sure, by looking around at today's messed up world.  ...

The Rabbi and the Terrorist      By Dennis Prager   It was obvious to observers around the world that one of the designated targets of the Pakistani Islamist terrorists was the Mumbai Chabad House, the one Jewish center in Mumbai. The 10 Islamic terrorists who came from Pakistan to India chose their targets with great care. If one assumes that the terrorists' primary goals were to destabilize India, weaken growing Indian-Pakistani cooperation i...

I've been contacted by a few from back home that there has been quite a commotion stirring in Standish, Maine these last few days.  It seems as though a little Mom and Pop store right at the top of the hill a few doors down from where I worked has made National News.  The owner of the store is hiding out.  Like any small rural town you have the hangout place where the locals gather for coffee and gossip and this little store is no exception.  Well that's not exactly ...

I was not too happy to see the auto industry standing in line for ther bailout.    After living the good life for quite a while and not being prepared for the rainy day they were found wanting.  Imagine that.  Well get in line.  There are laws of reaping and sowing and now comes the harvest.  You always pick what you plant.  The first law of reaping and sowing is you always reap what you sow.  The second law is you always reap ...

Change.  Obama's mantra these last few months.    But nobody really knows what this change is all about.  His picking of his VP and that of his cabinet so far hasn't brought about any change that I'm aware of.  So where's the change?  The military has been warned.  Change is coming.  The IRS and accountants have been warned.  Change is coming.  But nobody knows exactly what this change entails.  So we're all waiting for chang...

If Obama is not a Muslim and he says he's not.  Why is he being called the Messiah by the head of Islam?   When was the last time we had a President called a Messiah?  Anyone?  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ha5HEc-vOJs

The  news story dated yesterday I'm about to share with you rips my heart out and is one reason I am so against abortion.  I'm sure this happens more than is reported as many testimonies have been reported.  It's just wrong and to think we're about ready to elect a President who doesn't really have any problems with this sort of thing is just beyond me.  Remember Obama was against the Born Alive Protection Act.  A Florida baby who was born and died in an abortio...
