So, we have had a lot of rain and snowpack recently. If you believe in global warming, you likely ignored all news media, since well, how can snow be happening if the planet is being cooked by emissions. Ignoring all that, we had an appearance by 90-Day Guy at the office, and predictably he fired…

The Myth of the Antichrist
As I touched on in my last installment, the word “antichrist” never appears in the book of Revelation. Yep, it’s a doctrine to many folks but like most of the B.S. propagated by C.I. Scofield, it cannot be found in the actual text of the Bible. The Antichrist, of popular culture, is a composite of…

The best entertainment on television during the last few weeks has been the Donald Trump show. Trump is the straight man in this farcical comedy.

This week, we will experience the end of an error and a new beginning. Yes after eight years of Barack Obama a new chapter in American history will begin.

This past weekend, we celebrated Christmas. It was the most enjoyable one I can recall in many years. My weekend started Friday afternoon by getting sent home early from work. This year it was two o’clock. This is the earliest that I can recall being dismissed. Of course the drive home was a cakewalk. I…
