The Left really does inhabit an alternate Universe

In the last couple of days, the Left has amply demonstrated that their Universe greatly differs from obvious Reality.  These stories really have me shaking my head in disbelief.  First, here's an excellent article dealing with the Left's alternate Universe. Have you seen any Republicans "running scared" ahead of the upcoming Midterm Elections?  I sure …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #216: Urban Environments

Thinking back on the past three years, it occurs to me that we have pretty much stayed out of big cities, both at home and on vacations.  In the last three years of Covid madness, I have only been to Seattle once, for a private concert at the new Center for Chamber Music, which Hubby …

R.I.P. Queen Elizabeth II, a Truly Great Lady

Britain's longest-serving monarch, Queen Elizabeth II died today, September 8, 2022.  She was born the same year as my mother, 1926, and lived to 96.  She lived her long life in service to her country, with not a hint of scandal relating to herself.  She remained calm, cool, and reserved, in spite of all the …

On September 1, Joe Biden gave a speech in Philadelphia, at Independence Hall.  The venue has historical significance which is obvious-the War of Independence was planned there, as well as the US Constitution when independence from Britain was secured.  From the picture below, you can see the "hellish red background" behind him, and his angry …

I say, “Let them burn”

I saw a news story today about firefighters in Seattle.  It seems that, sometimes when the Seattle Fire Department responds to a fire, people at the site attack them.  Yes, people are attacking city firefighters! If you know anything about the modern city of Seattle, you know that it is riddled with homeless encampments all …

The lights are going out in Europe

And Germany has been the bellwether.  Back in the early 2000s, Chancellor Angela Merkel and her party made the momentous decision to begin the energy transition from "fossil fuels" to "renewables" as quickly as they could.  The scare-quotes around both terms are on purpose, because fossil fuels are not fossils (who is to say that …

The Abortion Culture of Death Reigns in Seattle

Shortly after the US Supreme Court overturned Roe vs Wade, returning the control of abortion to the States, the Leftists who run Seattle and the State of Washington vowed to do all they could to "protect abortion rights in our area".  This week, new Mayor Bruce Harrell signed a constellation of bills into law, that …
