Did you see this headline in your local newspaper recently? “Tennessee moves to the forefront with anti-transgender laws” https://apnews.com/article/tennessee-transgender-laws-b8d81d56287d6ed9d56c5da2203596b0 Once again, the Associated Press proves that it’s more left-wing propaganda agency than press pool.  The article is supposedly news.  It’s actually radical left-wing opinion masquerading as news.  The bills the AP criticizes are nothing more than common sense; for example, keeping biological boys from competing against biological girls in sports, or forcing biological girls from sharing a restroom with biological boys.  These new laws are supposed to be, somehow, discriminatory, and aimed at oppressing transgender people, according to the AP.  … Continue reading Random Thoughts, Common Sense Edition (?)

Once upon a time it was called global warming, and the people were led to fear extreme heat. Then it turned cold at times, and the big bad climate alarmists changed global warming to climate change to cover their mistake. Then somebody slipped up and admitted that the last ice age had volatile weather, and that warm periods, like our present Holocene, had been more stable. But the people continued to be told that today’s climate was becoming more extreme, either too cold or too hot. The weather must be just right, they said. But the big bad climate alarmists … Continue reading A Global Warming Fairy Tale

Reports Bob Tamasy, columnist for the Chattanoogan.com:  “We are short staffed. Please be patient with the staff that did show up. No one wants to work anymore.” Supply and demand, baby.  Offer people money not to work, and they’ll take it.  In the early days of the pandemic, it maybe made sense.  We wanted people to stay home.  That ended, oh, last June or July.  No wonder that in April 266,000 jobs were created, only 734,000 or so short of expectations.  That’s a miss so epic, it’s almost comical.  Only the willfully blind could fail to see and understand.  Unfortunately, … Continue reading Random Thoughts, Too Lazy To Work Edition

Every now and then, if you’re very, very lucky, you’ll stumble on the work of a great mind that so clearly states the case, explains the data, and in the end, makes so much common sense, that it’s a revelation.  One of those rarest of men is Thomas Sowell.  He is one of the greatest thinkers of the last 100 years, and millions have been profoundly influenced by his voluminous, luminous writing.  Jason Riley of the Wall St. Journal and Manhattan Institute is out with a biographical film on him which is well worth the watch.  Enjoy: https://www.sowellfilm.com/press-kit#Watch-Film Kenneth D. … Continue reading Thomas Sowell’s Common Sense

One of the NET3D writers has been quite skeptical of the COVID 19 vaccines. As he correctly noted a few days ago, “9,245 people in the U. S. who have taken the Wuhan Flu Vaccination have tested positive again. 132 people who took the vaccination have died.”  It’s also true that the FDA hasn’t given full approval to any of the vaccines, only provisional emergency authorization for use. Well, yes, he’s right.  But do these facts add up to reason not to be vaccinated?  I ran some numbers to find out. The raw numbers: “As of 6 a.m. EDT April … Continue reading Vaccination Hesitation

I recently ran across this letter to the editor in a local newspaper: To the Editor: With the Tennessee House of Representatives’ final approval of SJR 0002, the Republican supermajority sent a clear message: our state is pro-business and anti-worker. In spite of repeated, powerful testimony against this harmful resolution over the past several months and hundreds of phone calls and e-mails, legislators once again chose to ignore the voices of working families and side with corporate special interests. This week, 67 representatives voted to enshrine low wages and dangerous workplaces in our state constitution. Sixty-seven representatives showed that they … Continue reading Do Tennesseans Have a Right To Work?

Alfred Nobel invented dynamite and other explosives, and manufactured weapons.  He proved to be as competent at business as at chemistry.  It made him a very, very rich man.  It also left him a very troubled man, prompting him to establish 2 foundations and give them most of his enormous fortune.  The Swedish one awards all but one of the prizes bearing his name.  The other prize – the Peace Prize – is awarded by the Norwegian Nobel Committee. The Peace Prize has a record of quixotic utopian wishfulness in many cases, while in others it has been spot-on, recognizing … Continue reading Alfred Nobel’s Folly

Many years ago, I remember seeing a TV documentary set in a Brazilian forest.  A marmoset – a cute little monkey – thought it would be fun to tease a boa snoozing on a tree branch.  The snake had a full belly and just wanted to sleep, so it was not amused and did its best to ignore the joker.  The marmoset was having a wonderful time, however, and wasn’t about to quit.  Finally, the snake had had enough, grabbed the little pest, strangled it, and, even though it was hardly worth the effort, ate it.  Thus did another monkey … Continue reading Random Thoughts, Darwin Award Edition
