Nuke power?

You all know about my conservative views. I am not sure that any position on nuclear energy falls to either side. We need various sources of energy in this country, there is no doubt about it, but I believe that nuclear is an uncontrollable beast that we do not know enough about to use. This source of energy can quickly...

Unbiased News?

I’ve been sitting around for a time wondering what I can complain about. I have not listened to the talking heads from any network for several months and only tried to find actual world news presented in an unbiased fashion. It is virtually impossible to achieve this goal. I do however, watch CNBC in order to...

Pick Your Reason For Why You Vote Democrat

I am not sure who wrote this but it rings true with me. 10. I voted Democrat because I believe oil companies’ profits of 4% on a gallon of gas are obscene but the government taxing the same gallon of gas at 15% isn’t. 9. I voted Democrat because I believe the government will do a better job of spending...

State Legislator Facing Expulsion Says He’ll Resign

May 18, 2013 · Leave a Comment 

The Assembly speaker, Sheldon Silver, whose own handling of the initial allegations against Mr. Lopez has been widely criticized, vowed to press ahead with an effort to expel Mr. Lopez from the Legislature immediately. And the Council speaker, Christine C. Quinn, called for an all-out effort to prevent Mr. Lopez from winning election to that body this fall. “Vito Lopez should not spend another day in office, let alone a whole month,” Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo said in a statement. “He should resign effective immediately, and if he does not, he must be expelled.” The... [Read the full story]

Life in America: Personal or Government Responsibility

May 11, 2013 · 5 Comments 

Is the government really responsible for our healthcare or for purchasing our insurance? Are we where we are in life because of the decisions we make? I made a decision many years ago to have a career that provided me with certain benefits that I could carry forward in my life, including a very good insurance plan. This was the right decision for me, is it right for everyone? No, not in America, we have choices and we make them based on what we feel is right for us. Things have changed in the past forty years, personal responsibility is no longer part of our national view. We now look to others... [Read the full story]

Do you really check your receipts? Avoid being taken!

May 31, 2012 · 1 Comment 

There is a e-mail floating around and it seems this has been passed around before.  But this is something I felt was worthy of mentioning again.  You will never be so complacent again after reading this if you never check your receipts at the check out.  I know I many times am so busy with my daily life that I just hurry though the store and can’t wait to get checked out that I take the receipt and thank the cashier and is off on my merry way. It is our own fault if this scam happens to us.  Our fault for not double checking our receipts.  I am not saving things like this happen all... [Read the full story]
