You know who seems to have all of the answers? Proponents of legalized marijuana. They are able to explain away all of the negative effects of both the drug’s use and distribution. Since states like Colorado, Oregon and Washington approved the recreational use and sale of pot, neighboring states–and even some farther away, like…… MORE
Can I Get Another For You and the Little One?
On Monday, I posted on my personal social media accounts a link to a story in the New York Times on a ruling by the city’s (non-elected) Commission on Human Rights that bars cannot refuse to serve alcohol to pregnant women. I was surprised by some of the responses–especially from people I know are die-hard…… MORE
Bring It On!
I’m sure I’m not the only person who laughed when they heard Sarah Palin say she was going to work to defeat House Speaker Paul Ryan in the Republican primary in August. They say that “pride goeth before a fall” and no one is more prideful than Sarah Palin–who continues to somehow ignore the fact…… MORE

I’m sure some percentage of the tax dollars we pay to Madison and Washington ends up in drug dealers’ hands–but what about…… MORE
Correcting the Historical Record
I’ve mentioned here before my abhorrence of revisionist history. It is becoming more common to elevate minor characters in the development of the American nation to some sort of “major figure” status in an effort to appeal to all demographics and modern minority groups. And then you have the application of today’s social mores to…… MORE

Tardius, Inferior, Debelior
Faced with an increasing number of student-athletes failing their courses and unable to play sports, the Madison School District has taken bold action to rectify the situation. Did they set up special study halls for failing athletes? No. Did the teacher-coaches work with their kids to help them with the subjects in which they are…… MORE
Throwing It All Away
On Friday night, Miami Marlins pitcher Adam Conley had a no-hitter going against the Brewers at Miller park into the 8th inning when he was removed from the game by his manager Don Mattingly because he his “pitch count was too high”.
