After years of telling these stories around campfires, I finally put them in my first book!

Tall-tale humor from the Blue Ridge Mountains. I had a blast writing it & hope it brings a few smiles (and maybe a “yep, been there”) to anyone who picks it up.

For my 7 followers on blue sky - an interesting read on the "built-to-lose" Democrat party.

"What leverage do we have?” Jeffries laments, apparently forgetting that the power to resist tyranny doesn’t come from parliamentary procedure but from the moral clarity and collective will of the people.

For Dan Snyder haters (I count myself amount them):

The Washington Commanders just made it into the playoffs one year after Synder sold the team, going from 4-13 to 11-5 with one game left on their schedule.

Asking this on behalf of a fellow bluesky-er: I believe that spaghetti has to be one of the five great dinners out there. Agree or disagree? Why?

Let’s see where we are on the annexing front:

Canada
Panama Canal
Greenland (again)

Did someone get stupid a globe for Christmas? Can we take it back away?

Trump can run for a third term says horrible human being who hasn’t thought through the consequences of that statement. I’ll be voting for Obama or maybe Clinton.

You’ll quickly learn what media sources you can trust.
