Retired, well-educated Purchasing professional in aerospace field. I discovered Rush Limbaugh in 2001, and spoke to him on the radio in 2005. I mourn his passing every day. My husband and I both lost our employment due to the Government response to the Wuhan Coronavirus; I despise the Health Nazis who are ruining my country. We are endowing a scholarship at Hillsdale College, the last bastion of Liberty in America.
Interesting…Very Interesting…World Health Organization comes out Against Lockdowns to “fight Coronavirus”
I was alerted to this new (?) stance by the All-Powerful World Health Organization, warning countries NOT to lock down their economies to fight the Wuhan Coronavirus. Funny, when I checked, the WHO first indicated that lockdowns are a bad idea, way back in May! Yes, that's in MAY!! Funny, in April, the WHO was …
What I learned from watching the movie The Bowmakers, by Ward Serrill
This past week, I was invited by the Curtis Institute of Music, one of the world's premier music conservatories, to watch a movie about the people who make bows used by string-instrument players. Specifically, the movie profiled bow makers who live right in my neck of the woods (the Pacific Northwest), in and around Port …

Damn You, Jay Inslee, Round Two
The title of the KOMO story is "State has Fined 11 Businesses over Covid-19 Mask Mandate. In my opinion, this is pure, unadulterated EVIL. Here is a quote from the article: The state Department of Labor & Industries said Wednesday in a news release that Mail Express Business Center in Enumclaw got the largest fine …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #117: A Photo Walk on Dungeness Spit
In May of 2019, I took a little driving vacation by myself, to the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State. One day, I went to one of my very favorite places in the world, the Dungeness Spit National Wildlife Refuge. I have been there dozens of times, and every time I see something new. The path …

Instant Halloween!
This morning when I went out the front door to walk across the street to our mailbox, I noticed that our neighborhood was shrouded in fog. We have a pear tree in the yard, and on my way back home I noticed that it was shrouded in spider webs, made more visible by the fog-deposited …
He Said it Better Than I could: If I were Director of the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
Bid Welcome to our Guest Writer for today, Ricochet Member OmegaPaladin. I am very impressed with his essay on what he would do if he were the CDC Director. My sentiments exactly! I would start by taking the various department heads in a room to get my point across: Professionalism and competence earn respect. At …
The Mammoth Site
On our South Dakota trip, we spent a pleasant afternoon at the Mammoth Site, near the town of Hot Springs. For some reason, we thought that there were probably few people at the Hot Springs that day. Here's why. That's what WeatherBug told me. We were very pleasantly surprised to find that the site of …
