I don’t know why, but I am reminded again and again lately that the USA is just a “babe in the woods” of the world. We have a mere four hundred-year history and that’s not even enough to say we … Continue reading We Are A Teenage Country Who Think We Know It All.
I have always been proud to call myself a Baby Boomer. In fact, I am at the head of that herd. I have always been proud that we made changes to our nation that made America a better place to … Continue reading Tainting The Baby Boomer Brand!
I just need to step away from the idiocy in the Oval Office and the pandemic for a while. Starting today I’m going “off the reservation” for probably the next month or so here at RJsCorner. What you will see … Continue reading Going Off The Reservation…
