    East Palestine Derailment and Fire

    So, this is my take on how it works: Eligible U.S. citizens purportedly elect representatives who create regulations to take the citizen's money so that unelected bureaucrats can take credit for giving some of the citizens' money back to the citizens. Isn't that kinda close to the concept of...

    In my Army, I would anticipate more than a couple of career roadblocks right there for any soldier.

    December 7, 1941

    Much like the CCP is doing today; economically, geographically, and militarily. It's the only proven way to destroy a republic: always has been and always will be. For an alternate view on the topic, I recommend this read: Pearl Harbor: Hawaii Was Surprised; FDR Was Not - The New American

    Yesterday was the public declaration/photo op of the inauguration of Ohio's Chapter for the Farmers Veterans Coalition right here in Williams County which is becoming Tinsel Town East for these sorts of things.

    F-35 So stealthy we can’t find it

    I hope the pilot is OK, both after the ejection and after the inquisition. This thing may have had a factory-installed auto-land option. It wouldn't be the first time an empty aircraft landed safely. I can only imagine how difficult it might be to explain conducting two takeoffs without...

    Saturday I was at the Patriot Amputee Softball Team games (see above). Before the games, I had a chance to talk to each one about how proud I am of them that they simply never quit, never gave up, and are committed to instilling that attitude among other servicemen and women, and our youth in...

    Alligators

    People who do things like this are only thinking of themselves if they were thinking at all. There's a lot of that going on, most of which has much worse consequences.

    Ohio trout fishing

    WARNING: Two round rant follows: To paraphrase some unknown realist: A government big enough to give all that you want is big enough to take all that you have. (Think Seinfeld TV episodes with the Soup Nazi.) Me: Gimme trout! ODOW: No! No! No trout for you! Full disclosure: my kids...
