  • “Never forget” what?

    George Rebane Today marks the 18th anniversary of 9/11, the day radical Islam claimed the largest number of innocent American lives through terror as part of its global jihad against western civilization.  Since then the anti-American lamestream media has tried its damnest to propagandize an Islam-free narrative to memorialize that day of infamy.  The day…

  • Happy Fourth, if you can (updated)

    George Rebane This patriotic graphic was posted on last year’s 4th of July.  Continuing our national trend, this year’s celebration has gotten a bit more tense.  We now have invented and baked in the country’s psyche the national notion that everything ante-bellum that was part of American history is fair game to be attacked, withdrawn,…

  • ‘Drag Queen Story Hour’ (updated 24jun19)

  • Ruminations – 26may19 (updated 28may19)

    George Rebane Returned from a week at Hat Creek, CA with RV couples – we proudly call ourselves ‘Road Warriors’ – where the weather alternated between idyllic and intense thunderstorms not uncommon during this time of year.  A lightning strike on the RV park’s wifi antenna had us all experience yesteryear.  And we were again…

  • 4 May 2019 – A Day of Auspicious Observances

    George Rebane Seventy years ago today, in the early hours of 4 May 1949, I stood on the rail of the troop carrier USS Harry Taylor (pictured) with my father, as the ship slid past the Statue of Liberty to dock at the Brooklyn Navy Yard.  That evening on a chicken farm near Plainfield, Connecticut…
