If the government of Paris is giving up on electric cars…

How can every single automaker plan to go all-electric?  This picture just blew me away.  It is from Twitter, but I could copy it without actually going to Twitter, which I despise. The description of the above situation is as follows: Green madness.  Electric cars belonging to the City of Paris.  No one will buy …

The Headline Reads: Washington Health Leaders: 70% vaccination rate not end of pandemic

That headline should read: Washington Health Nazis say the pandemic will never end, and our absolute control of your lives will never end. This just makes me spitting mad, because I predicted it weeks ago!  The Health Nazis will refuse to yield their absolute power over the sheep of the State of Washington.  Quote: Washington …

There was a Ricochet Member, nicknamed Boss Mongo.

Oh, this hurts so much, to write the word "was".  I am sitting here at my desk, with tears leaking from my eyes.  Boss was ex-Special Forces, a family man, living in Florida with "the lovely and talented Mrs. Mongo" and kids, when he was cut down by a massive heart attack.  The hearts of …

Communist China acts like a Communist Dictatorship. Worldwide investors, including Americans, are surprised.

What's wrong with this picture?  Since 1949, China has been ruled over by the Communist Party.  The most prominent feature of Communism is "State control over the means of production".  That means that the Government (the State) owns, or controls, the Economy.  In the 1960s, after the death of Mao Zedong, his successor Deng Xiaoping …

Guest Blogger: Brian Watt’s excellent alternative disclaimer for “Gone With The Wind”

We all know that the movie, Gone With The Wind, was about the Civil War, and its effects on some wealthy families in the Deep South.  That movie is perhaps the best-loved movie of all time, and it is forever fresh.  Generations of Americans have viewed the film, on every possible screen, from huge IMAX …

Guest Blogger: We are called to a Great Cause

From my Ricochet friend Rodin.  I could not have said it better myself.  Please read, and comment. The nation is in great danger and the problem and the solution is the same: party politics. Political parties are vehicles, not ideology. They can be tuned up and powered like race cars or left in disrepair like …

A new disincentive to work in the State of Washington

The "Nanny State" of Washington has enacted a new social program, paid for by all those who are employed in the state.  Employees will now have half of 1% of their wages withheld, starting in January, for a "long-term care" tax, which will not be active until three years later.  That benefit will be a …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #155: On the Water

When you live in the Pacific Northwest, you can be "on the water" in moments, from most places.  We have the Pacific Ocean, Puget Sound, and numerous lakes and rivers within a short drive.  Silver Lake is less than five minutes from my house, and I never get tired of taking pictures of it.  Its …

Facebook: Taking Censorship to a new level

My readers will know that I have never used Facebook (or Twitter).  I hope that my readers are also fully aware of the censorship that Facebook actually announces to the public, so no one should be surprised to see them take it to the next level.  Around the 2020 election and after, they announced that …
