Ok, I confess that I’m a closet Eric Hogue listener. I know Eric occasionally has some unusual guests but today took the cake. The topic was about members for the California National Guard attending a “peace” rally that was held on Mother’s Day weekend. Eric was setting the background story to give the proper context…

Review Gordon Ramsey’s Street Burger
I told my girl that I wanted a burger and a beer. I’m not much of a drinker but it just sounded good. We hopped in the car and drove for about 20 minutes to somewhere I’d never been before. We parked next to a McDonald’s—not a good omen—and then went for a walk. We…

President Trump is headed to Oklahoma and Alabama this weekend to campaign. Why is this alarming? He won both of those states easily. His brand just like the Republican brand should be strong there. He should be elsewhere. If those senators are in trouble, we are losing the majority in both houses by a lot. …

A convicted rapist sentenced to three life terms plus 51 years in prison has been arrested in Sacramento County for a parole violation, four years after his release. The Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office said 47-year-old Lloyd Edwards was detained Thursday during a parole compliance check by the office’s Sexual Assault Felony Enforcement Task Force Team.…

I still think Gavin finds his way onto the 2024 ballot, but maybe not in the way people normally do it. I had thought that he would run against Joe Biden and force him out of the race in much the same way as Jerry Brown did to Newsom during his aborted first run for…

Yep, it’s that blatant and that bad. If you took the worst election ideas from California—i.e., the jungle primary—and added the worst election idea from Alaska—ranked voting—and some outside money and boost the whole thing on steroids then you’d end up with the smelly mess of dog poop being put forward by a Democrat shell…

The Ukraine-Russia war/conflict/invasion/special operation, choose your description, it sucks. Innocent folks are being killed, towns being leveled, young people being conscripted/sent forcibly into battle. It’s not a fun thing to write about. We here at the blog have an opinion of this war that will anger most who support Ukraine, specifically NATO and the EU…

Yep. There may be such a thing as coincidence but … whether related to the afore mentioned storm, I will let you decide. Yesterday, I took the wife to the County Clerk’s Office, and we registered to vote. A recent law went into effect in Idaho that prohibits anyone from registering to vote unless the…

You may be confused by the title of this blog, and you should be. William pointed out in his most recent writing that most in CA love big government; specifically, being told what to do by government. However, what if they knew the government was guaranteeing loans to business owners who are already successful? Enter…

Photo above is Rusty Rex and our storage shed. Yep, the wife and I have been busy finishing our house in North Idaho. (Don’t say “Northern” just “North”.) Right now, it’s mostly livable, except the stove is not operational yet. The glass for the shower will be here in early September. The cabinet guys will…
