FreeCreditReports.com

For years I have made a habit of ordering a free credit report each year. In order to get the free report they make you sign up for a paid account. They give you 30 days free afterwhich they start charging your credit card. I always cancel five minutes after I get the report so that […]

MIDHTV

I would like to start a new organization. I would call it MIDHTV. It stands for, “Make It Dang Hard To Vote”. I realize it doesn’t role off the tongue like ACORN but acronyms are not my best subject. I’ve always held that age 18 is way too young to vote. I remember the stupidity […]

Poor Joe

Finally, the Obama campaign faces a real reporter but all they can do is run for cover. Biden absolutely crashed and burned. It shows that even veteran liberal politicians have no experience facing the press. I don’t consider the major news channels press.

The argument in favor says, “In order to operate effectively in today’s financial markets, the State Treasurer must be able to diversify school and institutional trust fund portfolios in an […]

Caraway Seeds…Wheat’s Ugly Cousin

Caraway seeds in rye bread…….whoever came up with the idea of putting these noxious seeds in rye bread should join a leper colony. I bet 100% of the people in this world who hate rye bread, think they hate rye. In reality, you hate the caraway seeds. These seeds have done serious damage to the […]

Isolated tribe left alone

An indigenous tribe that is believed to have never been contacted by the outside world, has been discovered in the region between Brazil and Peru. The governments have jointed together to keep the tribe isolated. I think it is ridiculous. They are treating them like they are children. Actually, they are treating them like animals. […]
