In November, the people of Western Washington returned even more DemocRats to our state legislature. Since the majority of the population of Washington lives West of the Cascades, and the majority of them in Seattle, the far-Leftists of Seattle essentially run the State. That doesn't make the residents of Eastern Washington very happy, but there's …

Until this week, I had never been to Palm Springs, California. My parents used to go there every winter for a few years, but that wasn't until I was an adult, an I never had a reason to go there before. This week, Hubby and I hopped a plane and went down to a Hillsdale …
Most states have new laws which take effect in January. California has a new law preventing its doctors from disagreeing with the medical establishment, on pain of losing their licenses. Here are some of the wonderful new laws taking effect in Washington. The statewide minimum wage rises to $15.74/hour, and this applies all across the …

Yesterday, college football coach Mike Leach died. He was coach at my alma mater, Washington State University for some years. I read two online articles about him, and I spotted one big difference.

His description of how young people feel and act is quite upsetting. But I think he is absolutely correct. And I think that my generation, the Baby Boomers, started it. I …

This advertisement appears in my new edition of the Washington State University Magazine. I graduated from WSU in 1971, and it is the state’s Agriculture University, established by a Morrill Act land grant in the 19th Century. As are most colleges, WSU is as woke as it gets. I no longer donate to my alma …
For some reason, I'm feeling very oppositional today. And I caught all these opposites on our shopping trip this afternoon! My readers will know that I am opposed to the government's insistence that we all drive electric cars, for reasons discussed in many previous posts here.

It's priceless! The story on Fox News about a Canadian man who bought his Tesla in 2013, and needs to replace its battery (equivalent to the engine in a gas-powered car). It is well-known that lithium-ion batteries eventually lose the ability to maintain a charge, and must be replaced. What is not so well-known, and …
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.
