August 25 Do you WANT to be healed

In the Bible, John chapter 5 verse 6, Jesus asked the man at the pole of Bethesda, Do you want to be healed? I always wondered about that. Who wouldn't want to be healed? But that question was designed to make that man reflect on his own desire and readiness for change. I've encountered the same homeless people where every agency involved can document that they did something.Someone made contact, d...

August 26 Socialism for the Weakest Losers

Human beings have always searched for ways to soften the connection between cause and effect. We deny responsibility, shift blame, rely on luck, invoke status, or seek protection from institutions willing to absorb risk on our behalf. The desire is universal. The methods simply change with time, and somewhere along the way, through a steady accumulation of crises, the expansion of the admin...

August 27 Islamic Tactics for Conquest
How is Islam taking over the world despite 14 centuries of causing death and destruction everywhere they go? They'll enter a country under the guise of a peaceful religion, and they target sanctuary cities to build Islamic enclaves. That's where they build political power. They get enough votes to elect Muslims to local government so they change the identity of their city. They use high pop...

"Global Springhouse" by Steve Adams
As I walked through our hallway this morning, I stopped to look at a picture of my Grandmother.  Her smiling face looked back at me, just like I remember from my childhood.

She was born in West Virginia in 1913.  I still remember us having long talks about them getting indoor plumbing, moving food from the springhouse to their new refrigerator or the Model T fighting its way up the sn...

"Over Africa" by Steve Adams

After a day’s layover, we boarded the 747 in Frankfurt for the overnight trip to Johannesburg.  By now, I was a seasoned traveler, so the trip was exciting, but I was also anxious about what to expect in South Africa.  I knew so little about the continent, but I had high expectations of semi-arid savannah and exotic wildlife.

The flight out of Germany was uneventful as I ate the evening me...

August 18 Men are not women

In the 1970s and on into the 1980s, the world was astounded and disgusted to learn that East Germany was using men in the women's competitions at the Olympics. Those men were given female hormones so that they would grow breasts and take on features of women, but they were still men. And they were winning gold medals as women. It was decided that all athletes would be checked for their chromosomes. Were t...

August 19 Social Insecurity at 67

In 1983, Congress passed a law that official retirement age will be 67 and that will begin this November. A lot of people are upset with that because they want to retire sooner than that. As for me, I'm 82 and I still work full time. Why? Because I love my job and my clients, my clients love me, and this is fun. But the thing is, Social Security ran out of money long ago. Congress has been using the...

August 20 Queers for Palestine and Their Own Death

A few years ago, there was a television sitcom, Just Shoot Me. Seems like a strange name for a sitcom, but I think we have another name for Just Shoot Me. "Queers for Palestine." That is, the homosexual community is supporting Palestine in Palestine's fight against Israel. Don't American queers know what happens to queers in Palestine? Maybe they haven't been watching the news. In I...

August 17 Apathetic Christians killing America

95% of voting-age Muslims in America vote. 25% of voting-age Christians in America vote. What does that say about Christians? What does that say about Muslims? Tragically, a whole lot. Muslims care about bringing about Sharia, which will essentially ban Christianity, and our Judeo-Christian culture altogether. It will ban our Constitution. And it shows that Muslims deeply care about the...

April 13 Courage of Jefferson and Trump
One of President Thomas Jefferson's first acts was to free the world from the Barbary Pirates. You know, the Marine Hymn to the shores of Tripoli. That's where the Muslims piracy was settled.All the European countries were paying tribute to the Barbary Pirates every year. And America was paying 20% of its revenue in tribute to the Barbary Pirates. And those Muslims thought they were in the...

"Surprise Repair" by Steve Adams

A few weeks ago, I received a call from a longtime friend. He knows I am an engineer, and he had an old radio that had stopped working. It wasn't just any radio; it was a meticulously designed, high-end piece of equipment that had been silent for years. In the 1980's and 1990's people around the world paid $1,400 for each unit!

His plan was to order a new amplifier and replace the original board, but ...

Model Rockets

Back where I grew up, my old shop in the barn still reminds me of something out of an Indiana Jones movie.  Today, it is filled with cobwebs and inventions from 50 years ago, but in the early 80’s, it was amazing.

The neighborhood kids and I used to organize capture the flag events with as many as 20 kids.  My shop served as a “Command Center” where my friend and I used maps and radios to tra...

August 10 Doubling down on Failure
Some tactics that seem like idiocy to conservatives are actually used on liberals. For instance, defenders have failed policies no longer have to prove success. They merely have to convince enough people that fixing the failure would be morally offensive. In business, we call that doubling down on failure. If a product loses money year after year, we fix it. We eliminate it. We don't say we hat...

August 11 Smithsonian Lies

Millions of Americans have enjoyed the Smithsonian Institute for portraying the history of America. But that's no longer there with portraying history. It's now the politically correct false history of America. Mr. Trump is tired of that because the Smithsonian Institute is advancing an activist agenda that divides Americans by race, gender, immigration status, and nationality. And it demonizes the princip...

August 12 Divide and destroy America
What would you think if your house was being invaded and you were told by the police that you were not allowed to stop it? That's pretty much what happened in Texas. Millions of illegals were sweeping over the Mexican border into Texas and Texas was told by the Biden administration that that was a national issue and that Texas had no right to interfere. When one side of America seeks enforcem...
