I wrote a Ricochet post on the dustup between some students and a biology professor at Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington, and the total lack of publicity of this by the local "mainstream" media. So now my RB49 Followers can get a taste of Ricochet, since my post was promoted from the Member Feed …

RushBabe49 and Hubby’s Excellent Arizona Adventure
From February 13th through the 18th, hubby and I flew down to Arizona for a Hillsdale College National Leadership Seminar in Phoenix. We attended the Seminar Tuesday and Wednesday, then did some sightseeing the rest of the time. Monday's flight was uneventful, and we arrived at our hotel in good time. Upon unpacking, however, hubby …

What I did on my Summer Vacation
Hubby and I went on the Hillsdale College 10-day cruise to Alaska, aboard the Crystal Serenity. We spent about three years' worth of travel budget, but we sure got our money's worth, and more. Hillsdale does a big cruise every summer, and this was our first time. There were "Seminars at Sea", with noted speakers, including …

Weekly Photo Challenge: Circle
This is the very best Circle in a person's life: a Circle of Old and New Friends. This is the dinner table at the Ricochet Tahoe Meetup in September of 2015. At the beginning of the weekend, we only knew one of the Ricochet members. At the end, we had made five new friends. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/circle/
(poundsign)LoveWins! Really??
For the past week, homosexuals and their advocates and supporters have been literally dancing in the streets, since five lawyers in black robes "gave" them the "right" to government-sanctioned "marriage". That ruling, and a couple before it, has taken the issue out of the hands of the People, and in the case of Proposition 8 …
A Spring Trip to Colorado
Last month, we flew to Denver for a Hillsdale College National Leadership Seminar. The subject was Churchill, and how his life and accomplishments are relevant to us today. We listened to many great speakers, and met fellow Hillsdale supporters. Here is what we saw from our hotel room when we woke up the first day …
As Usual, Dave Carter on Ricochet Says it Better

I recommend that all of my readers and followers head on over to Ricochet and read Dave's post. Thank you all. Oh, and I heartily recommend that you join Ricochet. The people there are …

The Real View from Israel
Here is the link to an essay by Ricochet Contributor Judith Levy. She is in Israel, where rockets rain down on her family and friends daily. If you can read this without weeping, you have no heart. And if you can read this without getting very, very angry, you have no soul. I am sitting …
