I had heard several times during the broadcast that Jimmy Carter planned every detail of his funeral. Being a micro-manager, I doubt that he would have left this detail, the front page of the order of events, to anyone else: Indeed! The Left and the mainstream media (but I repeat myself) hate any religious mentions … Read more
Trump is saying a lot of things about the Panama Canal, Greenland…and, of course, Canada. Frankly, while he may be more than just “Trumping” a bit here, and trolling denizens in those areas (he’s certainly riled up most of the EU elite talking about Greenland), I think this talk is directed at someone else. I’ll … Read more
Almost any professional profession (sorry, just HAD to do that!) has standards that they have to follow, especially if they want some letters after their names (e.g. RN, MD, PE, CPA, PMP, CEH {heh – Certified Ethical Hacker! Really, it’s a “thing”}, AWS, CSCP). Study hard and take the exams (sometimes, multiple times, like trying … Read more
I found it interesting to see the distribution of which areas of the globe have both the most semiconductor firms and their values. The Netherlands has one of the most important firms in this space: ASML. Sure, there are far more capitalized firms and far more well-known ones. Still, if you understand the idea that … Read more
I just got my latest tax bill in the mail – once again, I’m working on TMEW to allow me out of my “never run for BudComm again if you let me serve a 3rd term,” as it seems that the Progressive-captured BudComm in my hamlet didn’t see a funding request it disliked. SideNote: Bruce … Read more
It took me a few years to get my school district (SAU73) to figure out that Agents of Government (elected and bureaucratic officials) cannot abrogate a person’s First Amendment Free Speech rights. Frankly, it got frustrating at times, but the school board finally acknowledged the error of their ways (to avoid the threat of another … Read more
Ann Kuster heads out the door of the US Capitol (for the last time as a member of Congress) with what shall be, in our opinion, the defining moment of her tenure. Her lasting legacy. Context? ‘Annie’ voted not to deport illegal alien sex offenders. And I’m betting that Anne Kuster would be very happy … Read more
And ideological ones as well. I would think that Lloyd Alter, a former architect, entrepreneur, and professor at Toronto Metropolitan University, would better grasp small and large numbers and how they interplay for setting Contexts. Yes, with a capital “C” as he, along with many other Eco-Socialists, continuously try to use “small number anecdotes” to … Read more
Then it Became Condescending and Orwellian So “Bard” was one of the names for Google’s earlier Artificial Intelligence forays, and I decided, given what others were doing then, to “test” it a bit. The common complaint, back in its early days (otherwise called January 2024), was that it would not answer direct questions asked by … Read more
By Dana Buckley It was truly sad and disturbing news to learn of the recent incident at Epping High School which involved a student being told by the school principal that she could not wear a shirt bearing the name of our nation’s current president while in school. The student was quoted in the Union … Read more
In each of the last few sessions, Democrats get incensed by the idea that “We do not co-parent with the Government!” Support for Parental Rights legislation is an “IN YOUR FACE” rebuttal to the idea that “It takes a village” is part of the Sacred Texts of The Collective – with ITS nuance that we … Read more
I found this, among some others, over at Barnorama: “Taxes are like a subscription to your Country that you can’t cancel, no matter how bad the service gets.” Well, the “can’t cancel” bit is undoubtedly valid. Even if you are so low on the economic totem pole that you do not pay income taxes, except … Read more
The founders of Axios, Jim VandeHei and Mike Allen, have admitted that we, the hoi-polloi, now have more effect on the news than the mainstream media: The establishment media face tremendous pressure to remain the preeminent voice in shaping culture and politics, Axios chiefs Jim VandeHei and Mike Allen said Friday. VandeHei and Allen acknowledged citizen journalists … Read more
I’ve known Mike Biundo since the genesis of the NH TEA Party Coalition when some leaders of the various NH-based conservatarian groups decided that the Granite State needed such a movement. To be honest, he’s always been a bit more “ahem” circumspect than I on almost any issue you’d be willing to query us. I … Read more
Having been Foster Parents for a bit, most “regular” folks have no idea what goes on other than what appears on TV for the worst of cases (e.g., Harmony Montgomery). So, I’m looking to add to that “knowledgebase” from time to time with some anecdotes from when we started with the Grandson nine years ago … Read more
NH doesn’t do too badly in this roundup – tied for 4th at 44%. Education pays, as the Bureau of Labor Statistics, found out in data published earlier this year. For every level of education completed, Americans earn more and face a lower risk of unemployment. So where have Americans got this figured out? We map the … Read more
This is absolutely unbelievable to watch (at 0:34, you can see the second launch pad start firing off): And the above doesn’t include ALL of the 2024, which total, as of 12/17, 128 launches. Perplexity.ai reports that the launch tempo average is once every 2.67 days. BTW, CASC is China Aerospace Space and Technology Corporation. … Read more
While much has been written over the last four years about Joe Biden’s dementia, this line summarizes the Biden Crime Family Ethos: Biden Demands Gun Control After School Shooting But Pardoned Hunter for Gun Crimes. With the latest school shooting, Biden (or the puppeteers behind him) shows us his decades-longitude: “Fine for mine, but screw … Read more
During my absence, while I’ve been busy with DCYF (they’ve given me some paper targets of their own to shoot at), I’ve continued to take the Conservatarian fight to Lloyd Alter, formerly of Treehugger (aka “TH”), now the proprietor of his own place, Carbon Upfront. While being a failed architect (his description of himself – … Read more
Back in August, I noted that NH Republicans had pulled to a practical parity with the Democrats in voter registration this past year: Interesting. I was actually scurrying around the NH Secretary of State site looking for something else (dang if I can remember now) when I thought this was what I wanted. It wasn’t … Read more
