  Definition: Anarchy – A government passing laws people will not obey.  

I took a picture of some Fourth of July debris lying on the ground earlier. On closer examination, it’s a very American bulldog, wearing a biker type bandanna covered with human skulls, with spiked collar, pierced nose and chin bandage, who is advertising a powerful 16 tube fireworks display (branded “NOT IN MY YARD”) inside a large…

Over at Ulsterman the conspiracy theorists are out in force in the comments and I have done my best to feed their paranoia. The best one I have come up with so far is:   What if the Drug War is a False Flag Operation?   Operation Valkyrie ring a bell?  

The latest metal shape I programmed and cut probably reveals my mental shape. How nice it would be to program and cut a mental shape!

Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey says the Drug War is a failure. He wants to put first timers caught up in Prohibition into rehab for up to a year. Forced anything is not what I would call a conservative position. But it is a start. Especially for Christian Democrats (Republicans). And then from the…

My opinion? Jindal is the only pick that makes sense. Jindal adds excitement for the base, makes this an uber-competence ticket, and makes the ticket multiethnic, which may not matter to you and I but will have an effect on the MSM (remember how “historic” Obama’s candidacy was?). Portman and Pawlenty add nothing, they’re boring…

While setting up my umpteenth aquarium (yes, I have too many fish), I noticed an odd thing. I needed to buy sand for the substrate, and the consensus is that the best deal for the buck is pool filter sand. This is a high quality sand that does not need to be washed repeatedly as…

Of course our Christian Democrats (Republicans) believe that Christianity should rule America thus giving fools like this an opening. How about no religion can rule America? It is safer that way. H/T Libertarian Republican

We have two authoritarian parties in America, Democrats and Christian Democrats (Republicans). That explains most of what you see in politics today. Libertarians used to be a force in American politics from 1776 (earlier actually) until about 1900. Around that time (and even more later) the Progressives split into two Parties giving us what we…

The biggest tax increase ever is disguised as “health care.” And the true cost of the war on drugs is being hidden by clever accounting tricks. They lie and we pay.    

The vast majority of the Republican Party.

One of the more annoying aspects of politics is the way ideologues impose conformity on people, so this remark caught my attention: The never-ending war between the left and the right seems to me like a couple of drunken college boys fighting over which one of their fraternities is cooler. Think about it: Once you…

Ulsterman has a post up discussing Mark Steyn’s observation that “the lamps are going out”. One commenter asks: I am still scratching my head wondering why we permitted 20% of population to lord over us?. Here is why: When “Conservatives” get it their authoritarian streak shows and the voters decide to try the other authoritarians…

Indoor living has its drawbacks. The glass used in most windows filters out the blue end of the spectrum. That can lead to the blues. A new kind of coating for window glass corrects for the blue deficiency. …our biorhythms are not affected by the wavelengths that brighten a room the most, but rather by…

Another day, another power outage. For no apparent reason (no storms, and it’s cooled down since yesterday), the power went out at around 8:50 p.m. I called DTE and was told that it would be off until tomorrow night. I called again an hour later and was told the same thing again. So were other…

My time will come. Throw a party. And write a song. “Simon’s Wake” . and

I did a post on the new tobacco taxes. I mentioned in passing that schizophrenics smoke a LOT of tobacco. This measure then is a huge tax on schizophrenics. Pass on the link to this post: https://classicalvalues.com/2012/07/taxing-schizophrenics/ Let us fight the bastards any way we can. Start with information. Educate. Educate. Educate. And contact your…

Shopping for a gun or associated equipment? Don’t use Google. A major anti-gun group is applauding Google’s recent policy change to exclude firearms and other weapons from its shopping search results. The policy — part of the company transitioning its Shopping Center to a commercial site — places shopping results under its advertising policy, which…

I like smoking tobacco. Since I live on Social Security (yeah I know – and I’m working to get off it) it is an expensive habit that I can barely afford. I smoke about a pack and a half a week equivalent. That’s right – I roll my own. Well in its infinite voraciousness governments…

Going through some old photos, I found one showing me with a man I met many years ago, and while I don’t believe in “name dropping,” the guy has been deceased for so long that I don’t see the harm in quoting something he said with which I wholeheartedly agree. (Hmm, to avoid the split…
