by John December 20, 2017

Sure, this is not a great tax reform bill.  You’ve read my critiques here.

Living In The New Gilded Age

by John December 8, 2017

Going back in time can be a fascinating wake-up call. Recently I was transported to the Gilded Age visiting The Breakers Mansion in Newport, RI.  (It will be on an upcoming episode of Undercover Jetsetter.) This Gilded Age mansion was built in the 1870s by the Vanderbilt’s. Inside this now-museum, you can relive the opulence and […]

What I’m Watching: Ken Burns’ Vietnam

by John December 7, 2017

A warning here.  US Baby Boomers and older might find this documentary series difficult to watch. I mentioned Ken Burns Vietnam to a Vietnam vet. “Why do I want to relive that again?” Then I remembered my flashback while watching the doc. It was 1967. I was 12 serving as an altar boy at the […]

Sorry, Football, I Think I Am Done

by John September 18, 2017

I have not seen one football game this season; only small portions; but with little or no interest. Baseball and golf seem to be my sports watching.  Will that change come November?  I don’t think so. Football holds no interest for me anymore. My head, heart, and gut say by watching I would be supporting […]

March 28, 2012: Day Reason Died in US Politics; Or Real First Day of Trump Revolution

by John August 14, 2017

The day was March 28, 2012.  It’s the day Congress officially — with both parties in majority agreement — killed the Simpson-Bowles Plan. This was a well-researched plan that could have: Reduced our debt while growing the economy Encouraged all segments of American society to sacrifice and work together to make our country truly great again.
