Equality for Everyone? Not Quite
Monday, Jun 10, 2013

Ever read or hear about the book, “Men Are From Mars, Woman Are From Venus?” I haven’t actually read it, but I have heard from enough people to have a basic grasp of the premise. It basically lays out the differences between the sexes and how they complement each other. The book explains how to...

Is God Mad?
Monday, Jun 3, 2013

What have the people of Oklahoma done to make God so mad? Nothing. My heart goes out to all those who were affected by the tornadoes in Oklahoma and the Midwest. I can’t even imagine what it would be like. Here in California, we have earthquakes. When we have an earthquake, it’s bad. People die,...

The Busiest News Week in Years
Thursday, May 23, 2013

When thinking about what to write in 700 words or less, my head almost exploded. No, really. Last week we had the Benghazi inquest; three women held captive for 10 years are set free; Jodi Arias was found guilty (will she see death? Stay tuned); and Dr. Gosnell’s trial abruptly ends when the defense...

COEXIST is Not for Me
Tuesday, May 7, 2013

You’ve probably seen it on bumper stickers or maybe even on a sign recently held around town at a protest rally. But really, it’s not for me, I’m not allowed. That’s right. There are people who want us to COEXIST. They want everyone to get along, but only on their terms. They want everyone to...

The Assault on Education
Monday, Apr 29, 2013

I am coming up on my 500th radio show. Go figure! I was looking back on the titles and content of the shows, and I realized that one of the topics most discussed is education – not necessarily how good it is, but how our children are being taught contrary to many of our basic beliefs and facts. Disclaimer...

Cowards
Monday, Apr 22, 2013

Originally, I wasn’t going to write about the Boston bombing because I didn’t think there was much that could be added to what was being said over and over on every station. My thoughts and prayers go out to the families who lost loved ones or had a loved one hurt. I also would commend the efforts...

Sure … There’s No Attack on Religion
Monday, Apr 15, 2013

Not all religions are under attack. It seems the emphasis is on Christian-based religions. Let’s review a couple of examples. According to the AP and other news sources, an LGBTQ group (for the uniformed that stands for “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer”) has asked that a priest be removed...

Hey, Hollywood, Wake Up
Monday, Apr 1, 2013

“The Bible,” a five-week series on the History Channel, has ended. No big deal. Who’d watch this kind of thing anyway, and who cares? The most-watched TV shows are reality shows. Don’t you want to watch shows where people are worse off and nastier than you? And let’s not forget “The Walking...

Politicizing the Pope
Monday, Mar 25, 2013

The liberals are at it again. We have a new Pope. I am not a Catholic, but I say “we” because I understand the importance of the Pope and the influence he has for Catholics around the world. More than one billion Catholics acknowledge him as the spiritual leader of the church on this earth. Many...

The Spin Starts Left
Monday, Mar 18, 2013

As I’m reading what the liberal media have to say about the 2013 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), apparently I was not only at a different event, but I was also in an alternate universe. You can find article after article ridiculing CPAC and the various speakers such as Rick Perry,...
