Debbie and I just returned from our third European trip of the last year. We have decided to make Paris our home base as we continue to expand our research on a wide front. It has become increasingly clear that the European monetary union has reached the critical stage. If the Euro blows up, in what […]
Five Firebrand Questions For Ron Paul
The Des Moines Register has put together a compelling five-question list for Dr.Paul.
How is Your Family’s Personal Security?
Debbie and I are in Europe as you read this personal security post. It is tough to protect your family as you fly and travel, but I have good and comforting news for you. I travel with plastic packs of razor-sharp pencils that you can buy in any drug store. They’re great for sketching and […]
Taking a Beating in the Stock Market Again This Year: Part 2
In my last stock market post, I explained that I do not rely on corporate annual reports, which I consider relics. Glossy corporate reports are sadly late to the party in terms of providing timely intelligence. In fact, annuals are often promotional devices written by youngsters talking about “growing earnings.” No thanks. Certainly annuals provide […]
The Butyric Acid Miracle
Julia Child knew the answer – butter. In the opening French bistro scene of the super movie Julie and Julia, Madame Child overlooked her plate of incoming sole, sniffed the air and proclaimed, “Butter!” Julia Child was a butter maven for a lot of good reasons, but I doubt for the health promoting benefits of […]
A Shocking Health Revelation
Here is a shocking revelation: viruses are responsible for twice as many deaths as cancer. I was surprised to read this, and for good reason. How many of us spend much time reading up on viruses? With all the recent concern about a nasty flu and cold season just around the corner, I decided to […]

What I Learned on Our 700-Mile, Four-State Harley Tour
In Obama’s Two Economies, Daniel Henninger wrote, “For Mr. Obama there is no such thing as the American economy. Instead, there are two Americas with separate economies-one public, the other private. … Because Mr. Obama and his circle divide the economy into two parts, with the private economy merely a satellite orbiting the public sun, […]
“This is Not Class Warfare, It’s Math” – President Barack Obama
The president offers “a plan that asks the most fortunate among us to pay their fair share like everybody else.” One wonders if President Obama’s “everybody else” includes the 50 million Americans on welfare or perhaps the nearly 50% of Americans who pay no income taxes. Probably not, but then who is the everybody else […]
Taking a Beating in the Stock Market, Again This Year
You have plenty of esteemed company if once again you are taking a stock market scalping. The popular Legg Mason Capital Management Value C Fund is down a staggering 11.8% YTD. And, of course, the broad market indices are down. The S&P 500’s negative total return YTD is negative 6.3%. It has been a bummer […]
