Who do you think said these words of wisdom?

In my reading and listening, I came across a set of words of wisdom that very much impressed me.  Reading them, it seems like the one who said them had a very good grasp of morality, and human behavior.  The wise person who handed down these words was an important person, and wanted those who …

Loosening Ties

For most of my adult life, I have been a lover of classical music, and especially chamber music.  I got my first taste of playing chamber music in the sixth grade in school, as my string quartet played for other classes of students.  I remember being awfully proud of being able to play beautiful music …

Mind (and character) in the gutter? You be the judge.

This is a photo of the bumper of the car in front of me in the Starbucks drive-through this afternoon.  It's quite a collection of Leftist and druggie sentiment.  This is the first time I have ever seen someone admit to being a drug-user.  I wonder what kind of people she associates with?  Probably not …

Is Sound Transit’s Link Light Rail a rolling drug den or a rolling homeless shelter?

Sound Transit is the Western Washington “light rail” project, for which people in a large area of the Puget Sound (much of it out of reach of the choo-choo train for decades) pay a property tax, a sales tax, and a car-registration tax every year.  The first leg of the train ran from downtown Seattle …

Did you know that there’s a Freudian Truck Line?

Well, I didn't either, until we drove up behind one of their trucks on our road trip. How's that for a Freudian name for your trucking company?  Superego Holding!  For those of you who didn't take Psychology 101 in college, the "Superego", according to Sigmund Freud, is a person's conscience, the part of his mind …

It really hurts to say this. Parents, it’s time for you to abandon Disney. They are behind harming your children.

Mine (the Baby Boomers) is the first generation of Americans to grow up with Disney.  We went to the theater to watch Fantasia, Cinderella, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, and all the other iconic Disney animated movies.  We sat eagerly in front of our TVs and watched the Mickey Mouse Club.  We begged our …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #191: Curves

Have you ever noticed that Nature's God abhors straight lines?  Just look around you at Nature, and you will see that there are no straight lines in nature.  Everything in the natural world is curved.  Straight lines belong to items of human manufacture.  When explorers and archaeologists are searching for signs of human habitation, from …
