THEN AND NOW 1951 to 2021: PART I

Last Christmas, my niece gave me a subscription to StoryWorth.  Each week she asks me a question to which I respond in order to memorialize my thoughts and feelings over the past 70 years.  A recent question was, “How has life changed since you were a child?” Well, that opened the floodgates and I’m sure […]

CHILDREN BORN OUT OF WEDLOCK-UNEXPECTED CONSEQUENCES

I’ve written before about the results and consequences facing children who are born out of wedlock.  The whole “I don’t need to be married in order to have a child” lifestyle, encouraged by the example of numerous celebrities who the media glorify, will continue to have an enormous negative impact on society.  Legitimate studies already […]

I See Dumb People

Anyone who’s read anything I’ve written will know that I’m not a feminist.  I believe in equal pay for equal work – and that’s about all I agree with when it comes to feminism.  I firmly believe there are major differences between men and women and I certainly don’t wish to be treated like a […]

SOME REALLY BONEHEADED PEOPLE!

I miss those days of innocent reality tv shows like Love Connection when the worst you saw were two contestants sheepishly admitting having sex with one another on their first date.  At least back then, they and the host, Chuck Woolery, feigned embarrassment.  Now, you have the Jerry Springer/Maury Povich crowd who readily admit to […]

COMMON SENSE: THE INTELLIGENTSIA JUST DOESN’T GET IT

MAN UP, MR PRESIDENT!

  I did not vote for President Obama.  Some might call me a racist, but I voted against him based on the issues.  A 5-minute google search and his interview with Bill O’Reilly revealed to me that he was a far-left guy and told me everything I needed to know about him.  He said he […]

WHAT ARE THEY THINKING?

Before I begin, I want to set the record straight. Despite claims by my husband who is convinced that I was the topless girl on the roof of a car in the movie “Woodstock” (he wasn’t there by the way, I was), I’ve never been topless any where in public in my entire life. That […]

GLORIA STEINEM, YOU’VE GOT SOME ‘SPLAININ’ TO DO!

Let me start out by saying that I bought into part of the women’s lib movement when I was much younger and much more impressionable.  I’m not an activist at heart so I never burned my bra.  Instead, I was a loyal subscriber to Ms. and New Woman magazines, thought the centerfold of Burt Reynolds […]
