I believe that The United States of America is currently a great nation and has always been a great nation. It’s great, not because of our wealth, our military might and prowess, geographic location, our resources or our political leaders, but because the government it is based in high ideals such as law, order, justice, …

Separating Parent and Child Immigrants Not a Democrat Policy
Contrary to what the current administration and many conservative officials and pundits claim, there is no law forcing the separation of immigrant parents and children. http://www.politifact.com/punditfact/statements/2018/jun/21/blog-posting/no-bill-clinton-law-separating-families/
Danger for America, But Hope Endures
I believe that the United States of America is in existential danger from several sources. There is danger from a foreign power who has meddled in our last presidential election and seeks to undermine our very democracy by sowing doubt and distrust among us. We have a President who seeks to divide us, one from …
Another Year
Well, 2017 is over and I’m not sorry to see it go. For me, personally, the year had its ups and downs. It included new carpet, work successes, a three week bout with debilitating digestive issues (food poisoning or some nasty bug). As a country, I feel that 2017 was an awful year. In that …
Lost (and Found) in Space
I had the pleasure of receiving a copy of “Lost (and Found) in Space”. I’m loving the pictures and the notes that Bill Mumy and Angela Cartwright have shared. As I look at a photo of the great, intelligent, beautiful, wonderful June Lockhart, I remember that as a child of 4 or five, I didn’t …

Yesterday (May 24, 2015), Charles Moss wrote this article claiming that Superman had a “dark past” and that “Man of Steel” and the upcoming “Superman v. Batman” were simply brining him back to his roots. Here is my response to that premise: Mr. Moss, you’re article is based on incomplete and incorrect information. As such, …
Incubation – Stage 2
As you know from my previous posts on this subject, by this time I was hooked on Action Comics. The comic book infection I was already experiencing was about to get much worse. On another trip to the grocery store, I notice a comic book called “Justice League of America” (#112). I didn’t know anything …
Incubation – Stage 1
In my previous post, I told the tale of how I was infected by a love of comic books. Continuing the story of the progress of the disease, we come to approximately one month later. Again, I was grocery shopping with my mother. As I passed the comic book rack, I spied the next issue …
