31. AMERICAN IMPERIALISM REVISITED
March 27, 2019
In part I am repeating the first paragraph (re: Khrushchev) of my last essay because IMO it needs to be reiterated. I first learned about the socialist / communist propaganda machine in my tenth grade world history class. That was a long time ago, but as I observe events unfolding today, it is appar...

32. SOCIALIST PARADISE?
February 09, 2019
Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and others have stepped up as crusaders in advocating that our constitutional republic (No, it’s not a democracy!) become a socialist economy. They spin it as “Democratic Socialism”. Now there’s a combination of two bad ideas. Like that’s r...

34. MIDTERM Election Fallout
November 14, 2018
Well, thank goodness the 2018 midterm elections are over. The greatest benefit to me? No more gag-inducing television advertisements for candidates and propositions. (Whew!) Fortunately, I voted early, and was out of the country for the last two weeks of mud—feces?—slinging. Over the last 20 years, ...

35. THE KAVANAUGH DEBACLE: Cause-and-Effect
October 15, 2018
For the past week I’ve been thinking about the vetting process for the latest Supreme Court justice, Brett M. Kavanaugh, which included some high-school-stuff allegations by Christine Blasey Ford. Wow! What a circus. The whole shebang gave the world—especially the Europeans—another reason to laugh a...

36. GUT: A Real American Hero
October 04, 2018
You know, folks, I’ve led a happy, carefree life being blessed with supportive, cheerful parents and siblings; which likely led to the choice of companions I chose in my youth. My coming-of-age years were an absolute lark. From that early time, I know of no other individual who has glided through li...

37. AN INCONGRUOUS JUXTAPOSITION OF INCOMPATIBILITIES
September 22, 2018
The title of this essay is a verbal description of the two theater masks: Comedy and Tragedy. The masks and title verbiage validate that conflict is required to satisfy both; that is, the formula for writing comedy and tragedy is the same.
Check out your next Hallmark Channel romantic comed...

39. CHANGE: A Random Walk from Known to Mystery
August 27, 2018
This essay describes events that reflect our human condition; our inane ability to morph from a system of relative societal harmony to one of cacophony. What follows is NOT intended as a value judgment of individuals or organizations and groups, but simply an angle on so-called progress from my excl...

40. ADOPH'S DRUM ROOM

ONCE UPON A TIME…many decades ago there existed a tavern that was a weekend hub of activity for young adults, college age and up. The joint was located in the northwest corner of a Midwestern state.
