  • Kathy Hochul does girl math

     For those not in the know, girl math is defined as: When a pair of cute shoes retail at $89 and you find them on sale for $29; you did not save $60, yet this means you have $60 yet to spend! Cassie: OMG, these are only $29?? Melissa: Nice, what’s the retail? Cassie: $89… Continue reading

  • Star Trek, Kirk, and Unification

    This has been making the rounds and I finally watched it.  And sobbed like a baby.  Yeah, I am admitting it.  I cried more than when Spock dies at the end of Wrath of Khan (belated spoiler alert).  And with that one I Cry Every Time.  Set after Star Trek: Generations.  It’s eight minutes of… Continue reading

  • Fun Movie Friday–Legend

     From 1985.  Pure fantasy.  Starring Tom Cruise (yep, THAT Tom Cruise).  And Tim Curry.  And Billy Barty.  Soundtrack by Tangerine Dream (because it was the 80’s).  Directed by Ridley Scott (yep, THAT Ridley Scott).  This will not be to most of y’all’s taste.  I loved it and saw it in the theater multiple times when… Continue reading

  • A two-fer win

We’ll add a bonus–it looks like Trump is already making progress on dismantling Biden era ‘green energy’ initiatives (which we… Continue reading

  • Again with the overreach of the State

     A kid who was almost 11 years old walked a mile (gasp) into town by himself.  There was wailing, gnashing of teeth, and the mother was arrested.  Yep, it was a female sheriff who decided to arrest the mother at dinnertime. DCFS also got involved.  They created a ‘safety plan’.  As part of that, they… Continue reading

  • The secondary impact of unfettered illegals

     I’ve mentioned this before–the problem of Third World diseases coming into our country. In Georgia, around 200 faculty, staff, and students at a high school had to be tested for TB.  The disease vector was ‘an illegal Chinese student’ (please explain to me how someone walked from frickin’ China).  Apparently it’s a pretty rare strain… Continue reading
