A magnificent composition sent to me by Charles Burris. Many cuckoos are brood parasites who lay their eggs in the nests of other bird species which hatch them and rear them as their own offspring. To many people this sounds absolutely crazy and hence use “cuckoo” as a term of derision or ridicule. There are [...]

Eating 1 Lb of Meat = 6 Months of Showers. That was the theme of PETA as they took to downtown Detroit yesterday. When I take to the downtown streets in the afternoon, for my lunch break, the day often turns eventful. Weird people, weird things, dead bodies, movies being filmed, and always – action. [...]

A government bailout, especially one that benefits him personally. I lost respect for the Bond King, Bill Gross, when he started chanting for unmitigated intervention in the financial markets. He basically became unhinged, repeatedly harping on the need for big government to bail out or subsidize everyone and everything. His latest article is no different. [...]

As if I haven’t harped on this enough, now comes Richard Nikoley. This is such a no-brainer. Women of aerobics.

A few more samples.

More of the same. The first four photos were taken in the Harmer Park area of Marietta, Ohio, a great river town. All were taken with the Canon SD1100 snapshot camera. If you can think composition, you can do great work with these limited cameras. A Detroit house. A Kentucky porch. A house in a [...]

Well, not really, but lacking a better title for this post……I haven’t been blogging a whole lot lately because I’ve been busy doing some photo work with the free time I do have. I’ve been experimenting with Photoshop Elements for Mac, iPhoto, and posting photos on MobileMe, as well as setting up albums in SmugMug. [...]

Regarding Lew Rockwell’s post on his blog, Eric Englund stressed this most important point in one of his articles: a house is a durable consumer good. And I stated it back in 2005, when people thought I was nuts. However, not one person I know of (outside of self-educated skeptics, libertarians, or Austrians), be it [...]
