Couple Father Mother Baby Shoes

Marriage, moms and dads, never mattered more.

Children need their moms and dads, especially in times of crisis. Sadly, marriage rates fell by 6% in 2018, dropping to the lowest rates since the US started measuring that rate in 1867, according to the Center for Disease Control. Why should we care? Well, marriage as an exclusive, life-long relationship between one man and … Read more

American, National or Global Positions

Notable Quote – Orrin J. H. Johnson

On Nevada about to open up: emphasis mine: These shutdowns were always meant to be temporary, emergency measures, like a donut spare tire you can only use until you get to the shop. It was to give us time to expand our hospital capacity, which we’ve done, and to spread out the infections so we … Read more

Poll 2

A new poll: Safety & Security vs Freedom

Over at Fosters, the question being asked is: Mandatory or Freedom of choice – what vote you? So you all know what to do – you’ve never failed me before. Go do whatcha gotta do!

Gov. Sununu 3pm Presser – are we open or closed?

Raw notes. More updates as they go along, Note: “masks” are generally at least cloth face coverings. Note: if an owner doesn’t want to open up, they don’t have to. Dr. Benjamin Chan: 24,349 tested 1200 / people / day 164 positives – 2,310 270 hospitalization at SOME TIME during their illness 81 deaths (up … Read more

Bloody Kansas Redux

The State of Kansas has an election law requiring documentary proof of citizenship (“DPOC”) for voter registration. Why is this issue important to us in New Hampshire? NH law, RSA 654:1, makes being a citizen of the US one of the essential qualifications for registration to vote. This past Wednesday, April 29, the federal Court … Read more

Economy

Data Point – how long can businesses last?

Americans are optimistic by nature, and the public is right to hope for the best. But policy makers must prepare for the worst. And that means we must consider options for reopening the economy in a world in which we have not completely controlled the Covid-19 pandemic. Time is of the essence. Every week matters. A … Read more

Agriculture, anxiety, and aspirations

As I sit here this morning sipping on a hot coffee (decaf black for those who ponder such things) and overlooking the beautiful landscape that is Loudon Ridge and the lands to the west, I can’t help but reflect and ponder about how the COVID-19 pandemic has changed all our lives. For some the change … Read more

UFO

Quick Thought: Well, election time IS coming, right?

I was chatting with a friend in Ohio and she mentioned they are having UFO sightings around Wright-Patterson AFB. I told her we have the same problem here in New Hampshire. Seems to occur in cycles, mainly at election time in even numbered years. We have even coined a name for it:

Chocolate bits

Take it from me – only one hand? This guy is a piker

Take it from me, it’s like Pringles – you can’t eat just one (handful). And as the Left is trying to do, there’s no shame in this (how can there be if there’s no shame in killing an unborn baby, shooting up with hard drugs, not paying your obligations (like AOC’s new “don’t pay your rent” scheme, and all the rest).

drinking at bars during epidemic

EATING at a bar may still be a bit problematic…

American ingenuity – see Gov. Sununu?   Not a problem! Remember – this is coming from a teetotaling son of an Irish drunk so bars are a “foreign” space for me. For others, it’s their “safe space”; so why are they being taken away? (H/T: Powerline)

bad credit 2

What Do You Need from a Bad Credit Loan?

Having bad credit can make things difficult, even for the best of us. So, how are we supposed to ensure that we have the tools and resources necessary to work out exactly what we need? If we have bad credit, are we going to be able to achieve our goals and ensure that we’ve got … Read more

Too bad, Gov Sununu, you missed having your own by THIS MUCH….

I wrote about S. Dakota Governor Kristi Noem a bit ago and today I got to read this: South Dakota Governor Refused To Implement Stay-At-Home Orders. Her Citizens Throw Her A Parade. South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, who has decided to buck the trends around the country and refuse to implement stay-at-home orders in her … Read more

Got high hopes that Sununu is going to open NH’s economy tomorrow?

I’m betting he doesn’t have the political cojones to undo what he has done and let us adults actually be adults and assess the risks of Life for ourselves. Doing yesterday’s press conference, WMUR clipped this out: Whatever we do we’re going to make sure that we can handle it, and that the system can … Read more
