First, let's define "vehicle". Did you know that the derivation of the word "Vehicle" comes from the Latin word for "to carry"? So, a vehicle doesn't have to have wheels, or be propelled by an outside force. It just has to carry something or someone. I spent ten years as a hospital pharmacy technician in …
The header photo shows the level of gasoline prices in my neighborhood of Western Washington. Our Dictator has said nothing about the high prices, probably because he is happy with them. He thinks that, the higher the price of gas goes, the more of his subjects will buy expensive electric cars. And he is happy …
In my life, the most important thing that starts with the letter "H" is Hillsdale. Ever since we found out about the College in Michigan, which teaches Classical values, Western Civilization, and the Liberal Arts, my husband and I have been big supporters of the small school which accepts NOT ONE PENNY of government money, …

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.

They firmly believe that human-generated "greenhouse gases" have been causing the climate to get warmer for decades, and they believe that, unless the world essentially ceases to emit such gases from activities such as driving cars and trucks fueled by gasoline, and heating …

This is much more harmful to children, since their social development depends in large part on seeing and interpreting facial expressions of their parents and other adults; and of their friends and schoolmates. The past two years of Covid madness have adversely …
I live in Western Washington, basically surrounded by water on every side. Silver Lake is our local watery spot. I really wish there were a walking path all the way around, but much of the lake shore is in private hands, so the path only goes around the east and north sides of the lake. …
