Alabama Representative Mike Ball Responds To Sandy Hook Challenge
When I read this article on AL.com featuring Alabama State Representative Mike Ball’s response to the Sandy Hook massacre, I decided to send him an email. Immediately below is his glib reply and following is the original email I sent him.
USA Today Chief Editor David Callaway Stinks Like Chinese Onion
I n response to USA Today editor-in-chief David Callaway’s editorial column: Kids died in Connecticut school shooting, but not in China attack. Column: Time to take a stand on gun control Dear USA Today, That’s satire right? Or is it mind boggling socialist / communist propaganda. So, your job is done, but not really. Too […]
Illegal Search And Siezure Of Texts By Law Enforcement
When I first noticed these illegal trends by “law enforcement” several years ago, I thought it was some kind of joke. You know, a training program about important values in our country, like a continuing adult education program. After awhile, the reality sank in deeper and deeper. Big Brother is playing no game. The attack […]
My Old Boots | New York Schools Long Schedule
An old pair of boots are comfortable and warm like a puppy dog or an old friend.

Satire is an important mechanism whereby intelligent people are challenged to review […]
Homeless Deadbeats | Homeless Guru Kevin Barbieux | WHNT-19
Malice, hate, and greed never cease to amaze me. While I still am not a democrat, and consider Obama to be the inception of the communist era in the United States, I cannot comprehend republicans who denigrate and ridicule the unemployed as lazy, telling them to go to school, get out of their hammock, and […]

The Huntsville Times Delivers A Thanksgiving Slap In The Face
Seldom have I seen such an obnoxious sign-off for loyal customers. One thing is for certain, the Huntsville Times print edition is a lame attempt to accomplish nothing more than run interference against any would be competitors who might try to step in and fill the empty space created by the three day print schedule. […]
Onion | Petraeus Weds Broadwell | Terry Jones Officiating | Jill Kelley Asks Threesome
When I started checking references for this column I had in mind something cheeky and gratuitous. The trysts of the rich and famous bore me. Then it got juicy and even more serious than I expected – and cheeky and gratuitous…

But of course, there are so many who didn’t come home, and so many who come home with enduring injuries, and so the sadness of war remains – victory or not.
