guns continue to be “bad news” for women

our rights under attack

Those of us who choose to exercise our Constitutionally-protected, individual rights to “bear arms” by openly carrying our sidearms know that our doing so may eventually attract some degree of undue attention from onlookers and/or police officers. Fortunately, this has never been the case for me, but not all

despite their claims to the contrary

It is important to remember that “gun control” is a racist institution, and “gun control” always has been a racist institution since time immemorial… and by “racist” I mean the original, apolitical definition of “a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or …

kindle woes

So back in September, before our European vacation, I gave Better Half a WiFi-only Kindle (“newest”/3rd version) and since then, I have lost track of the number of books she has read on it, and it has accompanied us on that aforementioned trip, out to visit my parents in Seattle, …

do androids dream of electric sheep?

So after about two weeks of fooling around with our Android-based phones, I have to admit these little things are pretty slick… but you probably already knew that, and I am not really here to write about the phone today. Instead, we are going to talk about apps, because if …

all too similar

A criminal, if given the opportunity, would put a gun to my head and demand to know where my money is.
