The finale of my summer show was on last night. I have been watching America's Got Talent since it first started. I enjoy that reality show more than others because it shows all kinds of talents versus just singing or dancing. The point of watching the show for me is to pick my favorite act…… MORE
There are five U.S. service academies. The oldest is the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York. It was founded in 1802. Next oldest is the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland, followed by the U.S. Coast Guard Academy at New London, Connecticut and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy at Kings Point,…… MORE
Earlier this week, The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), asked law enforcement to investigate the possibility of racial motive behind the recent string of vandalism of Mazzah Mediterranean Grill in Boise. A rock was thrown through their glass door, the establishment has had eggs thrown at them and had the word "murder" spelled out using…… MORE
I want to publicly thank Nate Shelman for choosing a team with no talent. My Atlanta Braves have beaten his Cleveland Indians 2 days in a row now, but then again every baseball team can beat them. Thursday's game will probably end up in a win for the Braves again. Our bet ended with me winning a soda and David brought…… MORE

When "safety" is the lead argument, but not the true argument. Schools always want more money. Hey, who doesn't. When it comes to the schools wanting more, they have to ask their community. Meridian School District has, in my opinion, been creative with coming up with ideas for suplimental revenue streams. Considering school bus advertising…… MORE
I was a comic book reader when I was a kid, but I didn't really care for superhero comics. I didn't read Superman, Spider-Man, Batman, the Green Lantern, the Fantastic Four or anything like that unless someone (generally my parents or grandparents) bought me a copy. I was more into the Archies and Dennis the…… MORE
I decided to watch a new movie over the weekend. The Decendants with George Clooney ended up being my movie choice. Basically, the movie is about Clooney's wife in the film, who is dying. So, he brings his two daughters to say goodbye. A secret of the wife's surfaces though. Clooney finds out she was…… MORE
Recently we sold our ranch in Montana so we could move my mother in law closer to us. This past weekend we helped her move her horses and possessions to her new place near New Plymouth. I have made the drive from Boise to Corvallis, Montana many times over the past eight years. This…… MORE
