Faithful readers, your humble correspondent X spent election night holed up in a hotel in Las Vegas with the wife watching the returns come in. We had a great night! When I say “we”, I mean conservatives, not wishy-washy phony republican wannabe types. I will lay out the winners and losers as well as provide…

Whose World is This Anyway?
Last night, the Thursday night Bible study was yet another doozie. Folks, this group is so hung up on Premillennial Dispensationalism that it’s disgusting. First, they know that I disagree with them on eschatology; therefore, lots of prayers were offered that the Holy Spirit reveal the Truth to them by fiat. Intense study of the…

Folks, this blog may make you want to throw bleach over your eyes. It’s that bad. Jeffrey Pribble, a varsity football coach and teacher at Tracy High School, was arrested last week after police said his cell phone was found recording students in the boys’ locker room. Pribble, who began coaching at Tracy High School…

There is a lot of talk lately about Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania switching parties to the GOP. This is because he has shown strong support for Israel. Make no mistake about it, Fetterman votes with democrats 90% of the time. Yet there is serious talk of a primary challenge in 2 years. My advice? …

I have played several popular smart phone games over the last three or four years that use a client/server model. Typically, in exchange for some vaguely defined reason, if you log in with Facebook they will sync your saved game somewhere “in the cloud”. Every one of these games has eventually crashed and I have…

The Board of the California Republican Assembly is voting on approval of the formation of the Sutter-Yuba Republican Assembly. While you would think that Board members in northern California would be supporters of growth in the North, this is not universally true. A few malcontents have voiced opposition because they have been denied the opportunity…

Verizon Wireless is having a promotion today to get people to switch to their company. Missing from Connection Day is the Nokia/Microsoft brand. Windows is not on the list either but Blackberry is? This is why I plan to leave Verizon. I want better pricing and more options—they offer neither.

The biggest disappointment to me in this last election cycle was the campaign of Darrell Fong for State Assembly. Fong was missing in action in Elk Grove. For him to cede the entire city because Jim Cooper—his opponent—is on the city council was stupid. Cooper has the highest negatives of anyone in Elk Grove and…
