Stop the Nagging
by L. Neil Smith
A BLAST FROM THE PAST I guess it all began for me in 1952 when we had our first TV in McQueenie, Texas. I was about six years old and the national preoccupation, at least in early broadcast circles, seemed to be smoking in bed, which, judging by what I saw and heard, constituted a threat, not only to Western Civilization, but to Life on Earth As We Know It. All of those “public service announcements” (or PSAs as they’re called today) must have solved the problem—everybody must have stopped smoking in bed—since you don’t see or hear spots about it any more.

2021 The Good With The Bad
by Sarah A. Hoyt
I don’t remember—mostly because by the time I was fully cognizant these customs were things of the past—whether it’s a Portuguese tradition (or if it was a family tradition) to set off Chinese Lanterns at New Years, or if it was something done (only?) at the feast of St. John’s.

The Flight from Degeneracy
by Sean Gabb
Something known to everyone in England connected with independent education is the Oriental takeover of the scholarship system. In all the competitive examinations for bursaries and scholarships, the top marks go increasingly to boys from the Far East. I make part of my income from helping with this takeover. Boys are sent to me when they are twelve. Within six months, they are effortlessly handling Latin subjunctives and Greek aorist participles—handling these for translation into English and for translation out of English. Some of them do this because they must. Many fall in love with the Ancient World and its languages. It is some of the most enjoyable teaching I have ever done, and I plan to do a great deal more of it yet.

History Geekiness
by A.X. Perez
Yesterday, the Eighth of January, was the 206th anniversary of the Battle of New Orleans. Americans remember this day as the victory that wiped away how thoroughly the Brits whupped on us through the War of 1812. Lately the Radical Left has made noises of tearing down the Statue of Ol’ Hickory on Jackson Square because he was a slave owner and over the Trail of Tears (this latter is a vast oversimplification, but it rates its own article in a historical journal.). However, there is good reason to celebrate the victory and its architect.

Coup in Dallas
a book review
by Jim Davidson
The people of the national security state, also known widely as the deep state, who think they rule the world, believe in secrecy. As one can see from the above quote and from many other quotes from the Bible, secrecy is abhorrent to freedom, and to God. The dark secrets of the Nazis became the dark secrets of the OSS and CIA. All these secrets are coming to light.

Survival With Style 2022
Tyrants and Fools: The Fallacy of a Green New Deal modeled on the Covid Lockdowns
by Jeff Fullerton
Decided to make this one about the Survival With Style theme honoring the late Jerry Pournelle who made me aware of the notion in regard to energy, environmental or economic issues the ultimate choice is between Freedom or a socialist tyranny.
