Driving time is three hours west of Phoenix, 2-1/2 hours south of Las Vegas and four to five east of the Los... Full story
Note - This is one of the many emails we receive. As an attorney, I hesitated to forward this as it can be considered to be an indictment against my profession. But I believe there is much truth to the article below. Very thought provoking. Lawyers are adversarial and are trained to try to win at all costs. It may work in litigation but does not work well when governing our nation. Trying to win at any costs creates the polarization and hatred that now fills our country and leaves no room for...

Well, well well. Finally some GREAT news for Sr. Citizens!! ...Instead of all the normal 'Gloom n Doom' associated with the geriatric group (the fastest growing segment of society by the way) we're finding out that we're actually leading in brain activity. FYI - maybe being older is better?? The director of the George Washington University College of Medicine argues that the brain of an elderly person is much more plastic than is commonly believed. At this age, the interaction of the right and... Full story
Publishers Note - With the way our world is now we receive a lot of comments regarding our world. Some we choose to pass on to our readers. I never cared if you were "gay" or whatever acronym you chose to call yourself, until your 6% of the population started wanting special privileges.

INTERESTING ESSAY Author UnKnown Men, like nations, think they're eternal. What man in his 20s or 30s doesn't believe, at least subconsciously, that he'll live forever? In the springtime of youth, an endless summer beckons. As you pass 70, it's harder to hide from reality....as you lose friends and relatives.

"Socialism only works in two places: Heaven, where they don't need it, and hell where they already have it." - Ronald Reagan "Here's my strategy on the Cold War: We win, they lose.' - Ronald Reagan "The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help." - Ronald Reagan "The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so." - Ronald Reagan "Of the four wars in my lifetime, none came about...

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: - Knowing when to come in out of the rain; - Why the early bird gets the worm; - Life isn't always fair; - And maybe it was my fault. Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can... Full story
We certainly were the lucky ones, in so many ways: Obviously some of you don’t fall in this age group but your parents and/or your grandparents do and this will help you appreciate what they endured in their lifetime. Interesting Facts: IF you were born in the 1930s to the mid 40s - you exist as a very special age group. You are the smallest group of children born since the early 1900s. You are the last generation, climbing out of the depression, who can remember the winds of war and the i... Full story
Political Thought From Canada I think that I may well have entered the Twilight Zone. We have become a nation that has lost its collective mind! You can't justify this insanity: • If a guy pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him. • Somehow it's un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America. • Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegals voting in our elections are good. • It was cool for Joe Biden to "blackmail" the President of Ukraine...

Publishers Note - Unless you were lucky enough to live in the United States during this time period you really can't realize what a wonderful country we are allowing the communists to take over. This is a very good read. As we are the children born in those years that the writer refers to, it reminds us of the great youth that we experienced. I would add also to the below essay that our public schools exalted patriotism and faith in those days;.. One of the worst consequences of the Viet Nam... Full story

According to an analysis of current census data, the average US household, headed by someone 65 or older, has a net worth 47 times greater than a household headed by someone under 35. Referred to as senior citizens, old fogies, blue hairs, geezers, crocks and dinosaurs, some of us are "Baby Boomers" getting ready to retire. Others are from the Greatest Generation and already retired. We walk a bit slower. Our eyes and hearing are not what they once were. We worked hard, raised our children,... Full story

Racist - Who Me? The term “Racist” Is an important tool in the Marxist tool bag.....A very effective one it seems. "This is an interesting and different point of view from Great Britain. Food for thought. When does political correctness go too far?" A thought provoking passage written by an ENGLISHMAN about the current situation in HIS homeland - this is thought provoking, and is equally relevant in America. I have been wondering about why whites are racists, and no other race is? There are Bri... Full story

Is This For Real? We occasionally run across something like this that we feel is interesting enough to explore. Dick Durbin, a Senator from Illinois calls senior citizens the Greediest Generation as he compared "Social Security " to a Milk Cow with 310 million teats. Here's a response in a letter from PATTY NYE from Illinois ... I think she is a little ticked off! She also tells it like it is! "Hey Dick, let's get a few things straight!!! 1.

A thought to remember: Marx said, "Remove one freedom per generation and soon the people will have no freedom and no one would have noticed." There was a chemistry professor in a large college that had some exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in the lab, the professor noticed one young man, an exchange student, who kept rubbing his back and stretching as if his back hurt. The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged... Full story
