I am lying in bed and I can’t sleep. I can’t get this political cartoon out of my head. The only thing I think they got wrong in the picture is that one of the hands should be that of a woman since it is many Republican Senate Women who are now going to be… Continue reading Another Sad Day in America in a Long Chain of Sad Day’s in America
Mr. Kavanaugh, It Is Time to Withdraw
Dear Mr. Kavanaugh, I will cut right to the chase. If you had a modicum of dignity and saw the true value of the Judiciary, you would withdraw your name immediately for consideration to the United States Supreme Court. After listening to your testimony at the hearing before members of the Senate last week, you… Continue reading Mr. Kavanaugh, It Is Time to Withdraw
It’s Crunch Time Democrats
The next Congressional Election is right around the corner. Democrats, you have fewer than 60-days to enroll the electorate in agreeing, and accepting, our country is not doing as well as this administration and Congressional delegates on the Republican side say it is. Most people already know this unless they are watching the propaganda television… Continue reading It’s Crunch Time Democrats
What is the meaning of self-worth?
Over the past year I’ve been thinking a lot about self-worth and personal value, even more intensely since moving to Indiana. What is the meaning of self-worth? Is it the size of one’s house? Professional reputation? Standing the community? Annual earnings? Being well-traveled or well-read? What is the meaning of self-worth? Is it the number… Continue reading What is the meaning of self-worth?
The New York Times Got It Wrong

After the New York Times published the anonymous Op-Ed piece, I wasn’t sure what… Continue reading The New York Times Got It Wrong
Do Not Impeach
I’m a die-hard progressive and very liberal, and proud of being so. Our country has only truly moved forward in meeting the ideals of our Constitution by progressive liberals. That said, in November, when the current party becomes the minority party in at least the House of Representatives (and maybe by some miracle, the Senate),… Continue reading Do Not Impeach
A Walk in the Park
Hello World! A lot has happened since my last post, which has kept me away. Hopefully life will settle into a little bit of a routine again now. This morning, to help take care of my mental health, I went to Eagle Creek Park to commune with nature. Last time I took the wrong lens… Continue reading A Walk in the Park
Being CSL is Frustrating
All I wanted was some bottled water. If you know me, you know I’m a bottled water snob. The Aquafina at the hotel was not going to cut it. I’d rather die of thirst then drink Aquafina as it always tastes sandy. One would think finding water would be easy in a place like Chicago.… Continue reading Being CSL is Frustrating
Ties Scare Me
Hello World. I’m back after a long break. Life became very busy and isn’t letting up yet. This morning I have my second interview for a position I really want. It is for the principalship of the school where my teaching career started. All of my major classes were held at the school along with… Continue reading Ties Scare Me
Are the lives of these children really worth less than common sense gun regulation?
These are just from 2018. I’ll ask again, “Are the lives of these children really worth less than common sense gun regulation?” Did best I could with picture credits.
