You instinctively know something evil is going on when a company’s motto is “Don’t be Evil.” As we learned in parts I and II when Google offers you “free” services (Gmail for example)—you’re the product.

The NRA Needs to Keep its Eye on Target
In the past few years the NRA has ramped up its messaging. With ballooning membership of 5 million, and donations rolling in, America’s strongest organization fighting for gun rights has been doing well.

Did the U.S. Army Just Find its New Rifle in a Colorado Garage?
Martin Grier, of FD Munitions, a garage-based company, has created what might very well be the U.S. Army’s replacement for the M-16.

Storing Water for the Winter
You don’t have to be crazy to store water. Over the weekend I completed my winter water storage. Below is a great video on how you can do it with 55-gallon barrels. I too bought mine at Walmart.com because it was the lowest price and they delivered the barrels to my doorstep. They arrived in […]
Tucker Carlson: Unity is America’s Strength
After a very divisive midterm election, it’s a good time to look back at this post I wrote on September 14, 2018 and review the words written by Pat Buchanan about Tucker Carlson. Carlson recently endured a mob of politically charged thugs threatening his wife while she was alone in their home. Writing at Buchanan.org, […]
