Where are the last vestiges of Afghanistan’s Taliban leaders hiding? Are they cowering in caves near the Pakistani border? Perhaps they own a condo complex in Karachi. More likely they are on a Dude Ranch in America’s Heartland.
Remember 1994? Religious fundamentalists overtook Afghanistan and trounced on that nation’s women with a vengeance. Being draped in […]
When you ask someone what it means to be human or what life really is, you may be shocked at some of the bizarre answers you will get. Recently in an online think tank someone stated that; “We are materialist beings intertwined with hyper-dimensional, emotional connection with alien species.” And that; “God said when the […]
Back in my college days, I tried my hand at picking up a few dollars by entertaining as a birthday party clown. My outfit was home made, and designed to project the image of a hobo clown. All the normal pitfalls were quickly experienced, like kids trying to pull off the clown nose, fending off […]
I don’t have much time to watch television. Being the lazy person that I am, I usually let other people in the family do my watching for me.
