2019 It was a (mostly) Very Good Year

As 2019 ends, and 2020 approaches, I have to say that it was a pretty fine year for our little family (Me, Hubby, and Kitty).  There were no disasters, no serious illnesses, only a few bumps in the road.  Our Country has been wracked and torn by the disgusting DemocRATS impeaching President Trump, but he …

A Belated Christmas Greeting to the Trump Family

President Donald Trump and his First Lady, Melania, published a video Christmas greeting to the nation. See below. https://youtu.be/l73tJGqHFOw Just look at that still-shot.  They do not look very happy, do they?  Perhaps that might have something to do with the way they have been treated for the past four years by the despicable (so-called) …

Reasons I’m ashamed to live in the People’s Republic of Washington

First, I did not elect the bureaucrats who are doing their best to make it difficult and expensive to live here.  I assuredly did not vote for the DemocRATS who rule this state. Starting from the top: The Sleazebag Attorney General of Washington State is suing the Federal Government for having the temerity to enforce …

Are you Clamoring for an Electric Car? Updated for 2022!

Is a Tesla or a Chevy Bolt, or a Rivian electric truck on your Christmas list this year?  Can you hardly wait to ditch that gas-guzzler in the driveway and replace it with a vehicle that you can "fill up" from an installation in your garage, at a lot less than a tank of Regular? …

Open Letter to Starbucks Corporate

I remember that, recently, you shut down all your stores to give your "partners" (employees in stores) some extra "sensitivity training".  This training was prompted by a little kerfuffle involving some freeloading black men, sitting around not buying anything, then asking to use the bathroom.  Admittedly, the employee involved could have been more circumspect, but …

Seattle Landlords are not going to be very happy.

The Washington State Supreme Court has just handed down a ruling that is going to make it much more difficult to own rental property in Seattle.  The near-socialist, depraved City passed a law that requires landlords to rent to the "first in line qualified renter" when they have a house or apartment to rent.  So …

Coming back to bite them in Seattle

On my favorite KOMO Web site today, there is a sad story about a King County worker assaulted, right outside the King County Courthouse in (used-to-be) beautiful Downtown Seattle.  This is so disgusting that I am going to copy some of that story for you here.  This is what the City of Seattle and County …

A Trip to Hillsdale College, 175 years!

The first week of October, Hubby and I flew to Michigan, to attend the Hillsdale College 175th Anniversary Gala, and the dedication of the new Christ Chapel.  The weather was fine on the flight out, and we got to see Mount Rainier from above. We arrived in Detroit, picked up the rental car, and headed …
