  • Rationale for Elephant Rides at a Fair??!! (updated 24jun13)

    George Rebane The 22jun13 Union joined the animal rights activists’ kerfuffle in their attempt to stop elephant rides being offered at this year’s Nevada County Fair, the theme of which is ‘Under the Big Top’.  I about fell off my chair when I saw the paper’s editorial position getting exercised about the Fair Board’s politely…

  • Ruminations – 14jun13 (Addended)

    George Rebane A new democultural milestone has been passed.  More whites now die than are being born in America.  Analyzing Census Bureau data, the Brookings Institution and others report that white women are now bearing 1.9 children on average, and as we all know, population stability occurs somewhere around 2.1 children to account for the…

  • We the iSheeple

    George Rebane The RR category ‘We the Sheeple’ has been renamed ‘We the iSheeple’ in order to keep up with the times that require starting certain words with the lower case ‘i’.  Except for some outrageous ideas wrangled in these pages, RR has been pretty staid in its approach to format and matters of eye…

  • Travails of our Community Organizer (updated 30may13)

    George Rebane Actually, that should have been ‘… our out-of-depth Community Organizer’; but where to begin? The ongoing and growing scandals – Asleep or fiddling while Benghazi burns, Holder going after Fox News reporter, IRS going after conservative orgs, DOJ tapping into AP, … – are piling up faster than the administration spin doctors can…

    RL Crabb’s cartoon filched from the 28may13 Union.

  • Ruminations – 16may13 (updated 18may13)

    George Rebane The flowering Obamagate scandals are simply “controversies” as National Propaganda Radio spent a great deal of time this morning assuring its audience.  Nothing special here, the President always comes out to the formally prepared East Room in the evenings to remark on little kerfuffles or differences of opinion.  Everyone go back to sleep.…

  • Teach them to code (addended)

    [This is the addended transcript of my regular KVMR commentary broadcast on 19 April 2013.] OK, those of you out there in radio land who want to help a young person find an awesomely interesting and well-paying career, pay close attention to what follows.  The jobs in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, or STEM areas,…

  • ‘Breaking Bread’ on NCTV (updated)

    George Rebane Late yesterday afternoon we finished ‘taping’ the first installment of ‘Breaking Bread’ (BB), a new series that is to air over the coming months on NCTV Channel 11.  BB is a roundtable discussion of ideas, happenings, and current issues of broad national interest.  It is based loosely on the historical French salons which…

  • April Fun and Foolishness

    George Rebane Nevada County poet Molly Fisk, who is also a regular essayist on KVMR and a fine lady of the liberal persuasion, and I were asked to trade our commentaries for today.  The idea was to have listeners maybe raise an eyebrow or two in fun as they heard familiar voices deliver unfamiliar monologues. …
