Welcome back!
Yes, I’m baaaaaaack.
What else is new? Well, the government has decided that the cost of living for seniors has not increased, so senior and others who get disability do not get any more money. Of course, the cost of living has increased, rent is going up, gar is going up, utilities have [...]

Previously, I wrote about some politics.
These days, politics can be a touchy subject. It is not like I am writing about diamond rings, engagements, or family reunions. Although I have to admit that some family reunions can be almost like politics. Who is talking to which person, who is not talking to [...]

I do not understand the recent wave of advertising that implies that Americans are stupid, or morons.

I have been called before. Once when I lived in St. Louis, Mo. Second time when I lived in Florida. The third time when I lived in Texas. Now, [...]

I just read an article that points out the difference between our country and another. We are both on the same side of the planet, but miles apart when it comes to what is going on.
Here in the USA, we worry about gas prices, food costs, rent, transportation, etc. In this other country [...]
