I believe we were married about 8 years before we had enough funds to put down on a home. ~ $55,000 in an Oak and Hickory forest. Two bedrooms on a quarter acre of land. We were able to put 10% down and had an 8% mortgage rate. One year after we sold and bought […]
I see no reason to add to Joyce Vance’s piece; “Attacking the First Amendment on Repeat.” It is an excellent read. I subscribe to Joyce Vance’s Site: “Civil Discourse.” Nothing like casual threats to free speech on a Saturday morning in America.

Merrill Goozner GoozNews How the $50 billion bailout for rural health care providers will be used to aid vulnerable Republicans in the mid-term elections.

BY that, Joyce Vance is telling you The Honorable John R. Tunheim does not want any more jello fed to him by ICE not following his judicial orders. Apparently. ICE confiscates the property of the people detained by them. When these people are found to be innocent and or released due to no findings, their […]
I was based in Cuba for about 9-10 months. It is not like there are hostilities between the Marines and Cuba. It was quiet duty.
