While reading my current selection from our personal library, I ran across a provocative statement which started a convoluted thought process within my mind. While the statement was not new, it just happened to stir something inside of me the moment I read it. From the book “The Next World War” written by Grant R. […]

Now that we understand the Liberal Agenda and the associated underlying policies, let’s take a look at the “competing” Conservative Agenda. We will focus upon the same five issues that were laid out during our discussion of the Liberal Agenda. Before we begin, I want to mention one thing… the Conservative Agenda does not equate […]

I get excited when I see a new movie released which was “inspired by true events” or “based on a true story.” Something about real life turned into a cinematic experience draws me to these movies.

Currently, 48 of our 50 states allow some form of concealed carry for personal protection (Illinois and Wisconsin are the remaining two along with the […]

Today, I’m going to take on a difficult subject. Well, it’s not really difficult, but I guess we can call it a polarizing subject. People are rarely situated in the middle of this topic as they are either adamantly for it or unabashedly against it. From the article topic, I’m sure you know what I’m […]

How Deep

Today’s article is a tough one. It’s a story that I don’t know if I could even come close to accomplishing. I don’t know if I would have the strength within that the person in this story has. This story is about a woman whose husband and five children were “hacked and clubbed to death.” […]

I came across an article today while reading my morning sports stories and events that I thought warranted some alternate thought. During last year’s NFL season (professional football league), a player was killed in his home during a robbery attempt. He was a young superstar of the league even though he experienced frequent run-ins with […]
