JEŠTĚD MOUNTAIN NEAR LIBEREC

KOOKY NOSTALGIA
Just for “fun,” I added up all the medals that the USSR would have won as of this moment (2103 GMT), and I came up with 112. Just goes to show that I, too, have way too much time on … Continue reading
YOUR RETIREMENT MONEY REDISTRIBUTED (RERUN)
I thought I’d rerun this rant from November 2011. I have been thinking about a couple of progressive concepts that the Obama regime is likely to employ as a temporary way to feed its spending addiction. (I say “temporary” because … Continue reading

THE DAY THAT MUST LIVE IN INFAMY
Funny how nothing changes from one April 22nd to another… Here’s a rerun of last year’s “Earth Day” post. April 22nd is the apparent birthday of Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, the one true evil genius of the 20th Century. Josef Stalin, … Continue reading

VLADIMIR PUTIN, SAINT
The Czech news site Tyden reports that a new sect was discovered in Russia that worships Vladimir Putin as the incarnation of Saint Paul. The worshipers of St. Putin are concentrated in the town of Bolshaya Yelnya near Novgorod. Matriarch … Continue reading

A PATHOLOGICAL LIAR DEMANDS TRUTH
Bill Clinton, who was impeached by the U. S. Senate for lying to a federal grand jury and who once argued about what the meaning of “is” is, had a great idea. (No, not about sex this time.) He opined … Continue reading
