Military Family, not Militant

Saturday, September 17th, 2011

My father was the youngest of four brothers. The oldest died at Normandy, on D-Day. The second oldest died at Guadalcanal. The third oldest died in Korea. My father served in Korea in the U.S. Coast Guard, and survived. Both my brother and I attended military schools, and we were both prepared to enter the [...]

For those who missed it….

Friday, September 16th, 2011

Read my blogging disclaimer, posted, and unedited since more than 5 years ago. If you don’t like it. F**K YOU! This blog is not here to make your life happy, but it is intended to make this World a better place.

Stop the Bailout!

Wednesday, January 14th, 2009

Let Free Enterprise Work Its Course! Something to think about GM supplier answers GM President Troy Clarke’s “plea” with a great response. This is one of the greatest responses to the requests for bailout money I have seen thus far. As a supplier for the Big 3 this man received a letter from the President [...]

Can Morality Become a Science?

Thursday, December 4th, 2008

This is a question that had me thinking most of the time this week. I find it so controversial in the sense that the two subjects are virtually involved in every action that we take on a daily basis. Such a simple question to ask yet it’s something that most people do not even care [...]

Who is Michael Turner (Part IV)

Saturday, November 29th, 2008

Will the real Michael Turner please stand up? MOND and CDM CDM (Cold Dark Matter) is, in my opinion, a scientific misconception, a lot like the Theory of the Luminescent Aether (or “ether”).   Years ago, and I mean well over 100 years ago, people knew that light was a wave.  Light was originally thought to [...]

The Pre-Made Choice

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008

Choice is a way of life. We choose the car we drive, the country we live in, the wife we love; we pick the choices that dictate our lives. But this is as good as how far we know. What if we really didn’t have a choice? What if all the choices we’ve made were [...]

Shame on me!

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

On the night of the Miss Cagayan de Oro beauty pageant held at the Atrium, Limketkai mall, I was accosted by a pickpocket. I had two cameras.  One in my fanny back in front of me, that was covered by a pack of cigarettes, so I was fairly confident a pickpocket could not get deep [...]

The State of This Nation, The Philippines

Monday, August 25th, 2008

I was interviewing an Xavier University 4th-year male nursing student who is keenly interested in SEO (Search Enginee Optimization), to do some work for me, and in the process he also “interviewed” me, asking a lot about what I thought about life in The  Philippines. (Normally, I take no part in hiring and firing for [...]

A Good Idea Gone Bad

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

The devastation of The Earth by the pursuit for renewable energy sources, namely biofuel. I can’t help but notice there is a rice shortage in The Philippines and the government is having to import a shortfall of 2.7 million metric tons of foreign grown rice. But there is no shortage of biofuel. I do not [...]

Mid-Life Crisis

Friday, April 18th, 2008

You always think there are somethings that only will happen to the other guy, not to you.   Lung cancer, prostate cancer, a flaming-gay child, stuff like that.  I would never have thought that I would be vulnerable to a mid-life crisis, but now in retrospect I see that I was set up for it all [...]
