Veterans Day Free Gift

Veterans Day Free Gift

by | Nov 8, 2026 | , ,

Veteran’s Day is this Wednesday, and here’s a unique way you can gift a great movie experience to every Veteran you know. I hope you, and the Veterans you know, are of an age or disposition to enjoy an excellent War Movie, Love Story, Life Story—actually, It’s A Wonderful Life Story. We went yesterday to see the new movie Jimmy on the big screen—the personal story of James Stewart, the actor, who volunteered and flew 20 missions as a B-24 pilot, then returned a confused and broken man. I think...

Bad President or Worse Policies?

Bad President or Worse Policies?

by | Oct 24, 2026 | , , ,

That’s what it comes down to in the Midterms. What a terrible choice our political system has created for us. But I believe we have to vote, and so I’ve made my choice, though I’m not happy about it, and I wish there were a third viable alternative. Despite what he tells us, President Trump is not on the ballot, and that’s actually a good thing. After his overblown personality has created problem after problem, my initial optimism for his Presidency has been erased, and it would have to be a...

For Such A Time As This

For Such A Time As This

by | Oct 6, 2026 | , ,

And now for something completely different, and I hope uplifting. The Midterms are almost upon us, and I’m frankly so disappointed in the lack of common sense, forward-looking, constructive policies from both parties that I just have nothing more to say on those subjects. If you feel about the same, here’s a link to a 45-minute talk that I hope will encourage you on several fronts, from a strong defense of our faith to clear guidelines for classical, conservative education for the youngest...

What To Do Now?

What To Do Now?

by | Aug 13, 2026 | , ,

Like several recent posts, I really don’t want to write this one, because I know it will make some people angry, but I must. And I write not as someone who claims to have all the answers, but as a fellow seeker of the best future for our country. The subject of this post has been building for months, but the trigger was a terrible event which happened recently to a friend of mine. She is originally from Moscow. When her husband was about to be drafted into Putin’s army for the front lines in...

Declaration of Dependence

Declaration of Dependence

by | Jul 3, 2026 | , , , ,

Much has been written about our 250th Anniversary by people much smarter than me. I particularly enjoy the Opinion pieces in the Wall Street Journal. Here are two really good, recent ones by Gerald Baker and Barton Swaim. I also re-read the post I wrote 13 years ago for our 237th Anniversary, before Trump, Covid, and so much more (but Iran was there!). If you have another minute, please take a look: “Who or What Will Fill The Leadership Void in Our Nation?”  Sadly, we continue to elect our...

D-Day

D-Day

by | Jun 3, 2026 | , ,

It’s almost June 6th, the anniversary of D-Day. For the last several years on this morning I’ve watched at least the first thirty minutes of the incredible movie, Saving Private Ryan, as my sincere but insufficient act of remembrance. My parents were married in Baltimore on June 3, 1944, and they tell the story of waking up while on their honeymoon three days later at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York as church bells pealed across the entire city early that morning, and people flooded into...

Three Short Observations

Three Short Observations

by | May 22, 2026 | , , ,

There are many difficult, weighty issues confronting us this Memorial Day Weekend in 2026, but I’m going to begin the summer with three unconnected, much lighter personal observations which won’t take long and which probably won’t mean much to anyone else…but here they are: 1. Take a look at this cover photo from the Atlanta Business Chronicle of May 15th. It highlights an entire section on their “40 Under 40” Risings Stars in our city. The newspaper “recognizes rising stars who have made...

How Claude AI Compares Progressive Conformity to Faith-Based Western Beliefs

How Claude AI Compares Progressive Conformity to Faith-Based Western Beliefs

by | Apr 23, 2026 | , , , ,

I'm sure that many of you are deep into using AI to assist in both work and leisure tasks. Others may not yet have ventured into these waters at all. Either way, I hope you will read through this post, to see Claude AI's comprehensive answers two of my prompts on how Progressive thought differs from and clearly tries to subvert the foundations of Western Liberal Democracy and Christian faith. But first, by a total coincidence, don't miss a brilliant summary on the same topic written by Justice...

My Attitude Isn’t Helping Anyone

My Attitude Isn’t Helping Anyone

by | Mar 24, 2026 | , ,

I don’t know about you, but I badly need an Attitude Adjustment. Everything just seems to be screwed up, from the state of the World in general, to the deep divisions within our country, to I can’t clean my car's windshield at our Shell station anymore because someone always steals their bucket and squeegee, so they don’t even put them out. My old friends are turning out to be just that, and they’re getting sick and even dying. Incompetence and inattention to detail appear to be the new norms...

Trumped at the Midterms?

Trumped at the Midterms?

by | Feb 15, 2026 | , ,

I’m generally a conservative-libertarian person of faith. On most issues you’ll find me in the middle of a square roughly defined by Ronald Reagan, Thomas Sowell, Charlie Kirk and Michael Youssef. I was so energized after the 2024 election, as were most friends and businesspeople I know. We had dodged the awful prospect of four more years of absurd policies: flooding our nation with millions of people from who-knows-where, with unknown intent, at a large cost to our security, our schools, and...
