Late again, but this might be worth waiting for. July 4 Fireworks from Bellevue, WA

Again this year, we packed up the picnic gear and headed over to Bellevue Downtown Park for the fireworks show. They set off the fireworks literally right over your heads, across the street from the roof of the Bellevue Square parking garage.

Bitter herbs… On Kale, the bitter vegetable

Kale, a dark green, leafy, "cruciferous" vegetable is a fad food. No one, absolutely NO ONE, ever considered it edible until less than a decade ago. People don't usually eat things that taste bad, especially those that taste bitter. Below is what one of my favorite food gurus has to say about Kale. Kale wears …

Guide for the Perplexed-an American black man speaks

Byl Holte is a black man, born in America in the 1960s, just on the cusp of GenX. He knows exactly who he is, and who he is NOT. I admire him greatly, for being very astute in his observance of current American culture. and I reproduce two of his recent comments on said culture, …

Human history and the human body. It’s all in how you look at it. Maybe suppressed knowledge is actually helpful. Sama Hoole enlightens us.

Lens-Artist Photo Challenge #397: Texture

This is last week's challenge, so I'm late. But I love watching for texture in my environment. I am a "touchy" person, and have to feel something before I fully understand it.

The Left is Always Wrong

This is due to more than one factor. The most important factor is that the Left does not recognize the existence of Basic Human Nature, and the corollary that Human Nature Never Changes. The other major factor determining Leftist wrongness is that they operate almost solely on Emotion, and not Reason. Even well-credentialed Leftist economists …
