All historical references, especially American history
Everyone should be aware of the two huge issues in the news lately. One is the cascade of "worker shortages" everywhere, from local bars and restaurants to big airlines, delivery services, and trucking lines. Everyone is having trouble hiring enough workers, now that things are opening up everywhere after government closures of businesses due to …
Ooh, this one is going to be really fun! One of the original photos I posted on my blog, way back when, is a twisty road in Eastern Washington along the Columbia River Gorge. I have always loved the shrub-steppe terrain there. How about our kitty, curving her body to rest on our barrel chair? …

This week's challenge, to show photos of places and things that have seen better days, could start with pictures of myself! But it won't, sorry. I will, however, start close to home. A few blocks away from my house, along the arterial street, is a house that has definitely seen better days. It's not that …

The well-known total narcissism of ex-president Barack Hussein Obama, got some great feedback today, on the subject of his Personal Library in Chicago (NOT his official Presidential Library). It is not news that the Obama Steamroller flattened opposition from the neighborhood surrounding Jackson Park, to the decimation of numerous trees and other natural features which …

I love taking photos of landscapes, since I normally notice the wide view. I don't have a wide-angle lens for my normal point-and-shoot camera, nor my iPhone, which I have been using for most photography for the past two years. I used to pooh-pooh all the people who are constantly using their phones to capture …

Twenty years ago, on September 11, 2001, a band of Islamic terrorists wrought havoc on our homeland of America. They hijacked commercial airliners, and flew them into the World Trade Center in New York, the Pentagon in Washington DC, and, due to the courage of the passengers, into a field in Pennsylvania. Everyone alive today …
Thanks very much to Sofia, who echoes what I always tell my friends, photographers or not. I make a habit of looking up, wherever I am. Most people, when they are in a city, walk or drive along looking forward, or down at their phones (which is dangerous!). I suggest that they take their eyes …

That you cannot fight or win a guerrilla war with conventional forces. The Russians lost. We lost. No one ever learns, do they? That is all I will have to say about this shameful US humiliation, brought about by the first US president who hates America.
No way could I miss this little ditty, composed many years ago by one of my favorite cartoonists. Speaking of tiny feet, we should all remember a line from a Robert Frost poem: The Fog comes in on little cat feet. All four little cat feet, visible at once. That kitty is pretty relaxed, isn't …

Never, ever, in the 250-year history of the United States of America, have the voters "elected" a president who despises his own country. Never in all our history have we had a president and his party whose goal is reducing this country as Founded, to ashes. For many, many years, incompetent grifter Joe Biden has …
