Ahhh, getaways. When you're retired, you can schedule a getaway whenever you want, since every day is a weekend. However, I just had to do this one first, as a response to Tina's photo. Hers was the outside, and mine is the inside of the Denver airport. In 2015, we went to a Hillsdale College …

We hear and read about the advent of so-called "clean energy" sources, which are scheduled to take over from dirty sources such as coal, oil, and natural gas all over the world. The European Union, The USA, China, and many other countries are embarking on the energy transition with dispatch; banning internal-combustion vehicles, institution "cap …
How can every single automaker plan to go all-electric? This picture just blew me away. It is from Twitter, but I could copy it without actually going to Twitter, which I despise. The description of the above situation is as follows: Green madness. Electric cars belonging to the City of Paris. No one will buy …

On April 25th, my husband and I flew from Seattle to Nashville, for a Hillsdale College National Leadership Seminar, and to do some sightseeing and meeting with our friends from Ricochet. I had the window seat, and I was fortunate to be able to see the ground for most of the four-hour flight. You want …

The Environmental Wackos came first. They believe that human actions are causing the climate of our planet to become warmer (even though there is very little hard evidence that what increasing temperature there is, is actually caused by human actions).

Take a look at what happened last night in Iceland. A volcano that had been dormant for about 6,000 years erupted, lighting up the night sky near the Iceland Capital of Reykjavik. Isn't this beautiful? It demonstrates the raw power of Nature. Maybe it thought that the humans were just getting too complacent, blaming the …
