Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #205: The Eyes have it

My first thought upon seeing this week's topic was "I rarely photograph people, so I don't have many faces".  However, upon further reflection, it occurred to me that there are a pair of quite striking eyes right in our own house.  They belong to our black cat. This photo deserves a caption.  Can you suggest …

US Supreme Court, in a 6-3 decision, overturns Roe Vs Wade. What it actually means. New stories added.

First of all, I would like to thank President Donald Trump for appointing three of the six Justices who voted to overturn the 1970s case that found a "right to privacy" in the Constitution where it did not, and does not, exist.  The hysterical Left, for whom abortion is their Holy Sacrament, were losing their …

Are you worried about high gas prices?

The header photo shows the level of gasoline prices in my neighborhood of Western Washington.  Our Dictator has said nothing about the high prices, probably because he is happy with them.  He thinks that, the higher the price of gas goes, the more of his subjects will buy expensive electric cars.  And he is happy …

CBWC: Piled or Stacked

She wrings her hands and cackles:  "Yesssss, she played right into my hands with this week's black-and-white challenge.  Little does Cee Neuner know, but our house is stuffed to the gills with things piled and stacked.  It was just a matter of choosing which stacks!"
