Wouldn’t the answer be, to children who might ask why former and future President Donald Trump beat current Vice President and future private citizen Kamala Harris Emhoff in the election, that the United States held a free and fair election, and as in every election, one serious candidate won, and one serious candidate lost? But […]
My morning routine is very much a routine: I check two of my favorite sites, The Pirate’s Cove and The Other McCain, and tweet out links to any new stories they have; I think that any extra publicity for sites which have supported mine is appropriate. I check my own site, and then I go […]
As the husband of a nurse, though not an Emergency Room nurse, the idea that people can careen into ER entrances, dump a shooting victim on the ground, and speed off, endangering hospital personnel outside the entrance, pisses me off royally.
