    Piano music courtesy of Harpeth Presbyterian Church, Freddie O'Connell is doing what our leadership does best — “if you can’t solve the problem — Change the Narrative — Our “unhoused” are not the same as homeless! We say there are fewer “unhoused” we have succeeded.FYI/ the words finite and opportunity do not belong in the same sentence with "federal funding" -- they are not synonyms -- Here’s the offending line —-“An all-access pass to sidewalks, signals, service and safety…..”Translation — everywhere you go, metro will have its hand in your pocket — You must pay to walk the streets, and drive your car — A surcharge may be made for safe driving!

    Opening & closing piano music courtesy of Harpeth PresbyterianNot long ago I was reading a blog, about our power-grid, those new photo-electric cars (The Hybrids), this writer suggested that “power would be returned” to the grid when the “cars were fully charged”….Yes, it’s true that if you have a “home generation system”, like a windmill your excess capacity may find it’s way into the power grid, but not from your Prius…Here’s The 411/The current coming into your home is “alternating current” (a gift Nicla Tesla) a storage battery is “direct current”, in other words the current is consumed in order to “charging the battery’.There’s no “two way flow” of “opposing currents”….Thomas Edision’s original generating plant is still in use, and one neighborhood of the big Apricot (Thank You Superman The Movie), consumes direct current.We can thank Nicla Testla, and George Westinghouse for the development of “high voltage transmission”, and alternating current, which made “wiring the world feasible”.

    Piano music courtesy of Harpeth Presbyterian Church -- used with permission.There is no chronologic connection between a looted obelisk (from the time of Napoleon) 1810 and the construction of that pyramid in the court yard of the Louvre. FYI/every pyramid is constructed by the same geometric rules.PS/Napoleon while only a brigadier general was the first conquer of Egypt since Julius Caesar (and he only captured Alexandria!

    Piano music courtesy of Harpeth Presbyterian ChurchWhy is that Itaiian sandwich called a sub?Maybe Miss Cornwall was right after all?She announced one day (back in 1948) I was in the sixth grade…. It was her plan, “to teach us to write The Kings English…”… It wasn’t true of course. At that time there was no society on Earth with more Language/Class divisions than the UK, not counting the various dialects, Scotch, Welsh & Irish.This is different from the book Miss Cornwall was teaching from, but the revised 1931 edition The Kings English, by Fowler,

    “It is universally admitted that a well-instructed people alone can be permanently a free people.” – James Madison, Father of the ConstitutionPiano music courtesy of Harpeth Presbyterian Church. Banjo music courtesy of Banjo HangOut "Hello Dolly" -- The only “crime” of Donald Trump is that he's a “birther”. As such he is a threat to the cult of “diversity”!Gentle reader, Let me remind you of the old political axiom “divide and conquer”! It’s the bedrock of WOKE theology.  That document which begins with this phrase “We The People…” is racist. No, it’s our bulwark of Liberty & Justice. Two commodities in short supply in Colorado & Maine.  Only Nebrask 7 Maine may "apportion" electoral votes, but must record only one for the winner.
