Anybody who has been looking at the front page of printnpost recently may have seen that David (02smedia) is thinking about changing the way printnpost works in some regards. I am just wondering, do y...

Sarah Palin's resignation made me wonder. Who, exactly, is guiding her political career? While she cites nearly two million dollars in state costs to defend her against frivolous lawsuits, one has to ...

Given the Obama administrations new vocabulary regarding terrorism, many across the country are watching with bated breath to see how the administration communicates about the Somali pirates. I guess ...

Has anybody seen Nancy Pelosi's statement? The one that has been posted on youtube in which she states that every month we don't pass a stimulus package the 500 million Americans will lost their jobs?...

Life is a learning process. I learned, or rather relearned a valuable lesson this week during my commute to and from work. The lesson was this; the one thing Americans fear, even Americans who would...

In my civic lifetime I have seen my country thrust itself into war several times. Most often this has been because of a threat to ourselves or our allies, or a direct response to an attack inflicted u...

I took a ride this morning to Cold Stream Pond in Enfield, Maine. It is a popular destination for ice fishermen seeking landlocked salmon and togue (lake trout) during the cold winter months here in M...

Being in sales in the State of Maine can at times be sort of like selling Bibles in Saudi Arabia. There are times when no matter how great the deal is, there will be no customers. Strangely enough, I ...

The first big snow storm of the season has come and passed. We dug out from 18+ inches of snow without much trouble (if you call only a broken belt on the snowblower not much trouble.)At the height ...

Yes, yes. I am the sort of person who is comfortable doing all sorts of things online. Selling items (mostly rare books), writing, communicating, etc. But still I don't shop online that often. Coming ...

This morning my wife and I set out to spend the day Christmas shopping. Our list consisted of two parts, part one being the things we definitely wanted to purchase for our two children, part two bei...

Where do I begin? The Prime Minister of Baghdad and the President of the United States had shoes thrown at them recently during a press conference. It remains to be seen if this will be used as a pot...

Am I the only one paying attention? Congressional approval of any kind of Big Three (Chrysler, Ford and General Motors) bailout is dependant on some sort of capitulation on the automakers part to prod...

Well, with another 29 or so days remaining in the Maine grouse hunting season, I am thinking it is time to begin working out the bugs on my new project, a hunting bicycle. Basically all I did was take...

Tomorrow I guess I will be off for another wet, dreary romp through the great outdoors. On Saturday I had a shot at an eight point buck and missed. From where I was it would have been a hell of a drag...

It seems that more and more, serious ebay sellers and online merchants are seeking out alternative venues to offer their wares. One of these is OLA.com also known as onlineauction.com. With its own "D...

I have noticed a pretty significant bump in page views over the last few days (10th, 11th and 12th), anybody else seeing this? My click rates have jumped also. Just thinking maybe we are getting bette...

In another strained attempt to convince the American public that Barack Obama is the greatest thing since the US Constitution, CNN overreaches again. This time, they put Obama on the same screen as Ul...

The Republican party needs to wake up. Already they are beginning to push Sarah Palin as the leading conservative candidate for the 2012 Election. Why? Well, I think it's obvious that they feel that s...

In Barack Obama's exact words, “We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we’ve set. We’ve got to have a civilian national sec...

I just posted this idea with Newsflavor, and have recieved positive support from a few supporters. We are trying to spread the word. If you are a McCain/Palin supporter, check it out.http://www.newsfl...

WOW. No sooner had I posted an acidic comment about how terrible Jason Varitek had played than he throws out a runner and hits a homer. Nuff said. This is why I don't usually write about baseball.

Come on Francona! I know you've got some kind of weird father-son attachment to Jason Varitek, and maybe he calls a good game but his bat is crap and his arm is a serious embarassment to Red Sox fans ...

OMFG!Joe, Joe, Joe the Plumber. Apparently both McCain and Obama are determined that they will provide liberty and plungers for all. It is strange, however, that suddenly Obama would decide how deeply...

This weekend we travelled wide and far around the state. From Southern Aroostook County down into Central Maine and across into the Western Central portion of the state. I was amazed that, unlike in e...

In an article published on the British Website telegraph.co.uk, Reporter Rowena Mason from Reykjavik reported that Iceland, whose banking system is in financial meltdown, announced that it was sending...

Here's my list according to the thread Bob Kile started from the National Endowment for the Arts List, according to the following guidelines: 1) Look at the list and bold those you have read.2) Ital...

Obviously, Biden wins the debate. I hate badly to admit it. Perhaps it's just his thirty something years in politics that makes him seem so much more refined at this. On foreign policy he chewed her u...

So even before I had thrown back the covers on the bed this morning, my wife is ridiculing me for getting up so early to go chase some birds around in the woods. I tell her"Well hun, we may not be lea...

I had to take out my first ticket with bluehost.com. The confirmation page suggested I might wait as long as 48 hours. How long did I wait? No more than three minutes, problem solved. I told everybody...

A short time ago I began to write a short story, it's opening was: In the end, it was the energy crisis that brought people back to the earth. They hoed and they tilled, and when the time came, they r...

In June Chuck Schumer issued a statement that IndyMac Bank (one of the nation's largest Mortgage lenders)was in financial trouble. According to IndyMac Bank officials, this caused elevated customer...

Something interesting is occuring in CNN"s Hurricane Center/Global Warming Center/ Weather Scare and Propaganda Center. Apparently, they are under some pressure to cover some hurricanes, which, acco...

Okay, this has to be the greatest mismatch in any single quality or skill I have ever witnessed in Presidential politics.Yesterday morning I awoke, stumbled toward the coffee pot and turned on the tel...

I guess I don't know if I'd describe her as "boxy" "over-painted" "fugly" or "homely", but I just about went into shock when I saw her mug on the television this evening. WHAT is she doing anywhere ne...

1. One can not assume 100% survival rate over the course of a single year, let alone twenty or fifty years? Obviously, there are wars, plagues, natural disasters, accidents, murder, perhaps even an as...

As we were getting to bed last night, waiting patiently for the 11:00 Forecast, as weather.com is usually inaccurate, the severed foot story came up on our local news. Yes, five severed feet have wa...

So maybe this is just a cheap excuse to brag about my daughter. Maybe it isn't. But you're gonna get that anyway.This is my third year coaching or helping coach my daughter's Little League softball te...

Yes, it's true. One of the local fire departments burned down a house without permission, possibly opening themselves to a lawsuit extroardinaire. My heart goes out to whomever owned the property, wit...

It was on my ride home tonight that I heard the story of a mother and father in Australia who were informed of the fact that their daughter had Amniotic band syndrome. This is a disorder that ste...

If only Hillary Clinton had spend the first half of her campaign behaving as she has in the second half, she probably would have buried Obama long ago. Instead, she behaved as if she were marching t...

We call it Burma, not Myanmar, but today that is beside the point. Today, their are over 20,000 confirmed dead, at least 40,000 missing, and some officials fear that the death count could clim...

Hillary, Hillary, Hillary..... While I am not entirely opposed to everything that Hillary has said during her campaign to secure the Democrat Presidential Nomination, I have managed to narrow...

Recently, our fellow blogger and resident monkey commentator (you know who you are) has taken up the fight against all who believe in gun rights, dog ownership and the Bible. Why, you ask, would a mon...

My liberal neighbor and I are talking pleasantly in the front yard the other day. He says that his wifes prescriptions are costing them big money lately,several hundreds of dollars a couple of times a...

Tired of watching airheaded, malcontent bloggers serve up hamfisted rants that display nothing more than their own intellectual deficiencies and arrogant, anti-social upbringings? Ever want to know th...

Thought my fellow conservative bloggers might like the following conservative quotes from "The Boggle" by John Kreuttner. It's really a funny book. Here are a couple of gems:"Money is what they print ...

First of all, before you email or comment that this blog presents no critical analysis of the conservative/liberal dichotomy foisted upon the American public, please understand "I DON"T WANT IT TO"....

Well, up here in Maine, the snow is finally melting, at the deepest spot in my lawn, there is only 4"-6" remaining. More than eighty percent of my lawn is exposed, and some of the nearby trout waters ...

Thought it would be fun to do a regular post on some of my conversations with liberal acquaintances, co-workers and neighbors. Of course, I'll only be posting from my perspective in these conversation...
