I am an "essential worker" at my aerospace company (at least until May 29, when I retire), and my days begin at 0510 when my alarm clock rings (really my iPod playing Wildwood Flower). So I mostly go to work in the dark, until just lately. I captured this sunrise picture on my way in …
President Trump Nails Pelosi
This is absolutely priceless. As one of my Ricochet friends noted, Nancy "Antoinette" left the door wide open, and the obliging Trump Campaign walked right through it! Let Them Eat Ice Cream! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7DKYML2MRs
I Defy
I defy the authorities who tell me that, as an over-70-year-old person, I should be staying home and not leaving my house. I defy the Government Authorities who say this: The CDC guidance comes as two top infectious disease experts with ties to the federal government have advised people over 60 and those with underlying …
Who does NOT suffer from the shutdown of the Washington State economy?
The only ones not suffering are the exalted ones in Big Government, especially in DemocRat-controlled Washington State. They can wave their magic wands, and put thousands of people out of work in an instant. Their jobs are not at risk, and they have little care for those who have been cast aside, ostensibly to protect …

Lens-Artists Challenge #92-Second Time Around (or more)
Thanks to Tina Schell for passing along this challenge. Since the majority of us are "sheltering in place" and not traveling, we pretty much have to post photos of places we've already visited. One of our favorite places is the Diablo Lake Overlook, on the North Cascades Highway, east of Newhalem, Washington. Hubby and I …

For Who Will Record the Truth…
...in these days of Darkness? Who will write down, for others to read, exactly what happens? Who will write the History of events in all the turmoil? Who will record exactly what is said, and meant, by President Donald Trump? How will posterity know exactly what kind of President he was, when the recorders are …
A Zigzag Working Life
I graduated from college in 1971 with a bachelor’s degree in Psychology. Back in junior high school, a psychiatrist had helped me a great deal, so I decided that I wanted to be a psychologist when I grew up. Since you can’t do much with a bachelor’s degree, I applied to graduate schools to get …
Proven right again-Hollywood
It has always seemed to me that Hollywood movies these days have been aimed primarily at an audience of 14-year-old boys. I have noticed a steady stream of new releases that are based on popular comic books, young-adult novels, and other youth-oriented subjects. This week, an article in the Wall Street Journal has proven me …
Dispatches from Furlough, Day Ten
Well, it's the final day of my enforced "vacation", and I guess the last vacation from work I will take in my working life. Boy, that thought just hit me. I have had some time to think over that voluntary-separation offer I received, and I am now planning on some negotiations with my supervisors. I …
Only in Leftist Washington State
Today, the governor of Washington State, Jay Inslee (vying for most-stupid politician with Senator Patty Murray, "mom in tennis shoes"), has communicated that he is contemplating: The State May Release Incarcerated Inmates Early as a Safety Precaution Safety for WHOM?! One more indication that Leftists care more about Criminals than they do about the Taxpayers …
