Time for the real one. Bring it on.
I believe Islam is Evil…
...but I find myself in sympathy with a particular group of Muslims, whose culture is facing extinction. Over the last year, I have been reading in the Wall Street Journal about how China is closely observing all its people, placing cameras equipped with cutting-edge facial-recognition software, wherever the people are. China is building a ubiquitous …
I LOVE this Ricochet Post, so I’m re-blogging it here. “Insulting Jews Everywhere, a Call to Congress”
Last week's wimpy resolution against "hate" brought this excellent response from a Jewish friend. I 100% agree. Do you? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Members of Congress, You should be embarrassed by your lack of courage regarding the anti-Semitism resolution that has been proposed, and apologize to Jews everywhere. How could you even think of changing the resolution …
Trudeau Cabinet Member Steps Down…What does this say about Liberals (and the Wall Street Journal)?
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is in the midst of a rather interesting scandal. It involves a Cabinet member who was demoted, and charged that it was because she resisted political pressure from the Prime Minister's office in a criminal case involving a big Quebec company. That Cabinet member just happens to be female, and …

Friday, on the Santa Monica Pier at Sunset
Yeah, it's basically a cliche, isn't it? Who hasn't seen pictures of a sunset off the famous Santa Monica Pier? I first saw the attraction way back in 1999, on my first adult trip to the area. I remembered how beautiful it was, and jumped at the chance to repeat the experience. February can get …
SoCal Interlude: Patterns
Over the weekend in California, my eye was caught by the many interesting patterns I saw in the hotel, and outside in nature. Some were repeated, some not. A guy at the hotel front desk told me that the carpet pattern in many places was the Golden Poppy, which is found in California. This pattern …
A Trip to Southern California, First of Two Posts
This week, we went to Southern California for a Hillsdale College National Leadership Seminar, the subject of which was Politics and Principles. The venue was a nice Hilton Hotel near the John Wayne Orange County Airport. Over two days, we had a President's Club reception, a nice dinner, with remarks by Dr. Larry Arnn, the …

Beautiful Japanese Dolls
Last weekend, Hubby and I visited Uwajimaya, a local Asian store. There was a gorgeous exhibit of intricately-made dolls. Someone spent many hours making these authentic dolls in their gorgeous costumes. I was impressed!
