Your Third Amendment Rights

Yesterday Mayor Adam’s of New York City, overwhelmed by the number of illegals taking him up on the city’s offer of “sanctuary”, announced that the city will begin paying private individuals to house the invaders. The Bill of Rights, Amendment III, prohibits quartering soldiers in civilian homes in peacetime without the homeowners’ consent, and prohibits … Continue reading Your Third Amendment Rights →

The Strata of Grief

Almost a year and a half since my sister died. Seven and a half years since the disease made its entrance. Fear. (Mine, I mean.) Those seven years were blighted by it. The anxiety every time she had follow-up tests, the relief at a good report. I didn’t think of it this way then, I … Continue reading The Strata of Grief →

Murder He Wrote

Did you ever get into an endless, eventually tiresome discussion about the Adam and Eve story? To me, it doesn’t make sense that they coulda sinned since they didn’t know good from evil until AFTER they ate the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil…and then you get into the whole thing … Continue reading Murder He Wrote →

No, We Are NOT a “nation of immigrants”, and coming here for “a better life” is Shadow-chasing!

The two phrases in quotation marks are ones I wish we would ban from public discourse. if your father, or grandfather, did time in prison, dies that make YOU a “convict”? Do not give me this ‘We’re all immigrants” bromide. Oh and, what about “They just want a better life”? Yeah, well, good luck and … Continue reading No, We Are NOT a “nation of immigrants”, and coming here for “a better life” is Shadow-chasing! →

E-Mask-ulated

Original OP published 3 December 2020: Browsing American Thinker this morning, as is my wont , I clicked on the link to New England Journal of Medicine wherein they concluded that, even in a hospital setting, universal masking is largely “talismanic”. But it now appears with a banner disclaimer at the top to the effect … Continue reading E-Mask-ulated →

Am I now,or have I ever been, a feminist?

When I was first in practice, I had to do an arbitration (which means try a case; in Pa, all cases under a certain monetary amount are subject to “compulsory arbitration” by a panel of three lawyers) in a neighboring county where I wasn’t admitted to the bar. A woman who practiced there, whom I … Continue reading Am I now,or have I ever been, a feminist? →

Martha Stewart a swimsuit model at age 81!

People don’t want older women to look good. Decent, yes, modestly well kept up, yes, but not…y’know, good. It’s an incest taboo thing. Once upon a time, grandmother (the grandmother of us all) got tired of looking like a crone, so she went down to the river and shed her old skin, like a snake. … Continue reading Martha Stewart a swimsuit model at age 81! →

You Can’t Make Me Do it!!

Does anybody else notice what I thought everybody calls the “side boob”:when you’re online? Little photos that give strange commands and promise to explain “Here’s why” you should follow them. Like “Always carry a crayon in your wallet when you travel! Here’s why..” “Always put tinfoil on your doorknob at night! Here’s why: “ “Pour … Continue reading You Can’t Make Me Do it!! →

LAUGH at Them!

I just came off a long thread of comments on an American Thinker article about trannys. Yuh I said it. But I’m not happy with that, although I fancy I trounced my opponent, because when you comment there it just. …queues up with a lotta others; probably most people don’t even see it. But here’s … Continue reading LAUGH at Them! →

Says it All:

“For this alone on Death I wreak The wrath that garners in my heart: He placed our lives so far apart We cannot hear each other speak.” —Tennyson, from In MEMORIAM A.H.H I hereby express my eternal gratitude to my mother, for whom saying “I love you” was not a declaration reserved for rare or … Continue reading Says it All: →
