“Making chit-chat while the camera crew were setting up, Governor Sununu said to me that in his view Benghazi mattered because it was ‘a question of character.’ That’s correct. On a question of foreign policy or counterterrorism strategy, men of good faith can make the wrong decisions. But a failure of character corrodes the integrity […]
IRS Targets Sweep the Nation
“The Internal Revenue Service’s scrutiny of conservative groups went beyond those with “tea party” or “patriot” in their names—as the agency admitted Friday—to also include ones worried about government spending, debt or taxes, and even ones that lobbied to ‘make America a better place to live,’ according to new details of a government probe,” reports […]
Gun-Free Zones Coming Your Way
You don’t need politicians telling you how to live your life. But that’s not stopping Mr. Big Gulp himself, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, from sticking his thumb in every pie. Now he’s targeting Senator Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire for rejecting the recent gun bill in the Senate.
Shotgun Malfunction
You don’t want to find out the hard way that your shotgun doesn’t work as advertised. As you can see in this video, less powerful shells can jam. This happened to me numerous times at a shotgun training course. I had no problem when I switched to a pump action. Keeping it simple is always […]
Rush on Martha’s Vineyard
I was 10 years old the first time I heard the band Rush. I remember it like it was yesterday. We were on a sailing trip with our friends the Gracias, staying on a mooring in Martha’s Vineyard. Our boats were rafted together in Edgartown harbor. After dinner, the adults stayed on our boat and […]

Spring Breakers!
Check this out before you check your bags. The FAA has determined which knives are safe to fly with. Isn’t that a relief? Happy travels!
Is Anyone Paying Attention Here?
It turns out the state of Illinois misled municipal bond investors by not disclosing its unfunded pension liability. Here we are in 2013, and the scolding from the SEC is about bond disclosures going back to 2005 and 2009. What’s the rush?
VIDEO: Steve Gadd: Way Back Home
A better R&B quintet sound would be hard to find. Cornell Dupree was one of the top three R&B guitarists around. Larry Goldings is a top three Jazz Hammond B3 organ guy. Ronnie Cuber is a top three jazz baritone sax player (Way Back Home needs a baritone sax). Eddie Gomez is a top ten […]
A (B)RAND New Day: Stand with Rand
The old guard of the Republican Party flashed its true colors last week. All it took was a 13-hour filibuster by Sen. Rand Paul to get the neocons on the Wall Street Journal editorial board worked up into a lather. According to the editors, Rand Paul was being childish and theatrical. “He needs to know […]
