In my previous article entitled, Gas Pains, I explored the gasoline crisis affecting our nation, as well as our government’s inane responses to solving the problem.  Although the United States boasts the largest supply of natural gas the world over, The Powers That Be still insist that we import the bulk of it from foreign [...]

The title of this article is also that of a Gold hit record by Elvis Presley, and within its content may lie a message for all so-called law abiding citizens!

Most Hollywood films about life behind bars have been far removed from Elvis’ phantasmagorical version of round-the-clock music and wardens partying with the inmates.  Movies like [...]

1 Queen = 12 Presidents!!!
 
In an economic downturn, one wonders whether our Founding Fathers made the right choice in breaking away from England.  During the reign of England’s current Queen Elizabeth, we in the United States have had 12 U.S. Presidents!  Yes, that’s 16 elections, 12 inaugurations, and 11 pensions while our neighbors across the [...]

I received the following in an email.  Enjoy!
 
1. If time doesn’t wait for you, don’t worry!  Just remove the battery from the clock and enjoy life!

 
2. Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are a good person is like expecting a lion not to attack because you are a vegetarian.

 
3. Beauty isn’t measured [...]

Considered Unconstitutional, our politically correct society shuns certain words, phrases, and symbols as if they were nuclear waste.  However, these same phrases are not only allowed to exist, but seem to be celebrated in everyday transactions.
 
Consider, for instance, how often an automated telephone system, a check-out station at the supermarket, or the U.S. Postal Service [...]

As the economic situation in America worsens and record unemployment continues, one has to wonder if God is testing us.  The stock market shows signs of recovery and the financial markets are also recovering thanks to the American taxpayer.  You would think it time that the recipients of this largesse pony up by providing more [...]

Multitudinous shopping malls, health spas and nail salons, tattoo parlors, universities, medical institutions, restaurants both fancy and casual, great beaches, well-manicured parks, Corporate America, and endless highways clogged with traffic … or a quiet rural setting with none of the above.  Which would you choose?  If you’ve chosen to reside in the Great Garden State, [...]

In the eternal quest for longevity of life, new problems arise.  While scholars and theologians still ponder when life begins, others are planning how life will end.  The question, “when I grow old and feeble, who is going to care for me” has to be addressed. Like national health insurance, not everyone in our country [...]

Inquisitiveness is in the nature of mankind.  So, I might add, is humor.  I found the following random thoughts in my email.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.
 
Only in America…do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.
 
Only in America…do we buy hot [...]

Albert Einstein noted, “Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity, and I’m not sure about the universe.”  Given the many people with whom I come into direct during my work week, I have to say that Mr. Einstein’s theory concerning the dim-witted was dead on.
 
Recently, for instance, one of my regular customers found [...]
