Our raspberries produced this year. The fence seems to have helped with the deer problem.

New York City Mayor, Zohran Mamdani , seems to have shown us again, what many of us already knew. Creating social programs that provide individuals and families with stability, reduces crime far better than police and prisons do. It should not be that difficult to understand that when people are desperate, they will behave desperately. This is just another example of how the MAGA movement is contrary to logic. But it is also fundamental for the billionaire ruling class, to direct the anger of the less educated against our poor, to deflected away from the fact that it is the obscenely rich, who are stealing billions of dollars from us.

Name calling is now okay. Under liberal leadership, people got fired for saying anything deemed politically incorrect. Now it's accepted. Until we understand how both sides are wrong, we're doomed to swing back and forth.

Does anyone know when the Epstein files are supposed to be released? I'm beginning to think there might be some kind of a cover up.

So, the question I've gotten a few times recently, is how many books have I written? Honestly, I lost count, so I pulled these off of my bookshelf, and I think it is all of them. The first picture is my novels, and my two cooking/brewing books. The second picture, shows all of the books I've written for my son each year. I did not bother to put them in chronological order. All of these should be available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble websites. "Cottonwood," is most likely to teach you history. "COVID Time," will make you think about the pandemic and how it changed everything. "Noah's Ark: 39 Million Light Years from Earth," will make you wonder about our place in the Universe. "Bloody Average," has two endings, and will make you think about what kind of a world do you want to live in. "Lapse of Humanity," will take you inside the psyche of a killer. "Synopsis, a Conversation with my Dead Father," will probabl...
