Very Un-Proud to be Scottish since yesterday. I can’t believe they let out the Lockerbie Bomber yesterday. Set’s a bad precedent. Today’s politicians and many citizens have no stones. If WWII were today there wouldn’t be the Nuremberg trials. There are people who are evil and deserve to be punished. Did they show compassion to [...]

I think it is time to ban the plastic shopping bag. I’m not a green freak but I do my part. As I travel around the largest percentage of trash I see on the roadside, in the woods, and today on the beach are damn plastic shopping bags.

Glen Beck is a Libertarian Talk Show Host and commentator on Fox News Channel. He has been on the radio for about 10 years or more, and was formerly on CNN for a couple of years. He is not a far right conservative or far left liberal. If anything he is an American who is concerned that we are heading away from what our Founding Fathers believed in. Today on his Show at 5pm Friday he had a special called “History Destined to Repeat Itself”
The premise is that we are heading towards Fascism. Now before you stop reading and think he is just out to bash Barack Obama, he states outright that we were started on this path by George Bush

I’m a little late to the party on this. Spiney has been somewhere between depression, exhaustion, busy, and malaise. As anyone who drives has noticed the price of gas has dropped very steadily for a high during the Summer and Political Primary season of about $4.10 here in Eastern PA to a current $1.60 and [...]

Hopefully I’ll make some sense as I write this sleep deprived, in pain, and just a little cranky. Well today was a day filled with bad business news at least according to my sources at Fox Business News both on Cable and XM-Radio. The Dow fell into the low 8200’s because Secretary of the Treasury [...]
