I was given a heads up on this film nearly a year ago by long time Chicago television, crime reporter, Bulldog John Drummond . Drummond has a part playing himself in my film project Come Friday . Drummond was lobbying me to contact Filmmaker/Director and Chicago boy, Andrew Davis for consideration to take charge of this true story of Chicago policewoman Ann Leybourne. What a gift it would be to have Davis direct my project. Davis of course gave us that great, made in Chicago film, The Fugitive. The film based on the hit TV series of the same name from the early 1960s. Indecently, the Bulldog played a TV crime reporter in The Fugitive too. When I first saw The Guardian cast lineup, I was less than impressed but for the gorgeous and talented Sela Ward . Ward also played the cameo role of the too quickly murdered Helen Kimball in The Fugitive. It was Ward and Davis’ prior work that drew me to his latest film. I’ve never been a Kevin Costner fan except for his role in the spy thril...

Don’t feel bad is someone calls you a racist. They probably don’t know what they’re talking about. I don’t now very many people that feel skin color or national origin means much of anything. Hate goes with racism. Most of us hate something. I hate ignorance, poverty, blight and crime. I hate any culture that embraces those things. I call that kind of culture, the Culture Of Doom. That does not make me a racist in any respect. Unfortunately in America there are two minority groups with way too many members immersed in the doom culture, Blacks and Hispanics. The danger is that too often we tend to assume every Black or Hispanic we see is a part of that distasteful, Culture Of Doom. Since the beginning of the human race we properly associated behavior, dress and speech with culture. Hating the Culture Of Doom does not make anyone racist or comedian, Bill Cosby would have been branded that long ago. Members of the Culture Of Doom need to mend their ways and quit whining about rac...

You see them everywhere, creating traffic congestion and accidents as they relentlessly jabber on their cell phones. They are so caught up in their conversations they don’t move when the light turns green. They will even stop at an intersection during a green light in hope that it will turn red so they can dial yet another number. What is the urgency for all these phone calls? I’m sure only a small percentage of cell phone self-abuser’s calls involve life, livelihood or anything important at all. The worst offenders seem to people without a job that requires they be so connected. I recognize the need for the cell phones and wonder how we ever did without them. We now have an entire generation of people that don’t have a clue about the days when every telephone came with a cord tethering them to some wall. The experience of searching for a phone booth in a driving rain is something our 20-somethings will never know. Clark Kent’s secret identity would be endangered today without t...

I can’t argue that every artist, performer and producer does not have the right to control their work, image and intellectual property. Then came YOUTUBE breaking all the rules. They let people put up whatever video they please and merely provide free hosting. The villains if any there are just happen to be the posters of the material, not YOUTUBE. There are a gaggle of lawyers waiting to gut YOUTUBE claiming they are the copyright abusers hoping to sue them out of existence. They want YOUTUBE to police what the public posts there. I say they should not have to. The lawyers can locate individual abusers like me and take me to court instead. YOUTUBE’s users are on the honor system! I say take a deep breath, and try to first determine if this service is not simply helping the artists. There are so many artists that have fallen out of the spotlight and their work can’t be seen anywhere who have been reborn on YOUTUBE. The result a new marketplace has been found where they can sel...

A major failed experiment of Liberals across the country was to establish GUN FREE ZONES. The concept is simple enough, to ban all firearms within certain areas. There was no better place to start this grand idea then in our schools. Perhaps a message could be sent to the children that guns are evil and only for killing! It’s double duty, prohibiting and demonizing guns at the same time! That GFZ concept is usually announced with bold red-letter signs. Additional efforts are taken such as placing minimum wage, poorly trained, guards with empty holsters and metal detectors at the doors of these institution. In theory the GFZs should work. The reality is that they only work to insure a homicidal maniac can quickly gain control of the Gun Free Zone and kill as many of our children as he pleases. The Gun free Zones and unarmed security guards are no match for a determined and armed assailants or terrorists. When the so-called Mob gave up control of the Las Vegas hotel/casinos,to n...

When I was a kid growing up in Chicago I discovered a terrific free museum near the Intersections of Clark Street and North Avenue. This was The Chicago Historical Society. Over decades I would spend countless hours inside viewing incredible exhibits that covered every American war, The Fort Dearborn Massacre, The Chicago Fire, The Haymarket Riot and so much more. There was a jewel. That was the Lincoln exhibit containing the actual furnishings, including the very same bed that Abe Lincoln died in along with all the other furniture. They recreated that boarding house room to every detail. (The actual linens and bloody pillow are preserved at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC where they recreated the missing furniture.) This was also the place to learn how and why Chicago became the city it is today. This museum boasted the finest gun collection found anywhere in the country. Examples of every kind of firearm could be seen here until guns were demonized in 1968. Duri...

A giant in the firearms rights and training world, Colonel Jeff Cooper has passed on. He was an educated man and understood what made this country great. Cooper founded his Gunsight training facility in Arizona that went a long way to keeping cops and law-abiding citizens safe. Cooper was an author and wrote thousands of articles throughout his career. More on Cooper

We don’t need no stinkin’ Fourth Amendment! That’s the battle cry this morning from Republican Congressman, Geoff Davis of Kentucky. He’s authored a new anti-drug and anti-weapon law that would require every local district to develop search policies – including strip searches that come with built in civil and criminal immunity against prosecution for teachers and staff. They are calling this un-American legislation, THE STUDENT TEACHER SAFETY ACT OF 2006. The House passed this trash bill on a voice vote, bypassing the committee process and with no way to hold individual members of the House accountable for their votes. How did a clown like Representative Geoff Davis get elected in the first place? He’s just another politician who took an oath to protect and defend the Constitution and then attempts to amend it, avoiding the proper political process for amending the Constitution. I offer no excuse for this but believe Davis must be incredibly ignorant or just plain insane. Perhaps...

To help the wayward Hispanic hoodrats improve their performance, this instructional video may provide assistance.

This time it’s the Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport. Somebody forgot he had a small Beretta .25 in his carryon case this morning. When he remembered it was time to quickly leave to avoid being jailed for pure and simple forgetfulness. The TSA Nazis captured the gun and the bag so whatever threat they thought they had was over. Flights were unnecessarily delayed for 90 minutes anyway as they evacuated two concourses and frisked every passenger again. Where does the TSA find the morons that make these stupid decisions? The TSA dopes won’t rest until all the airlines are bankrupt. I suspect the gun's owner is on video tape and they even have his name and address from his bag. With any luck even so they still may not be able to gather enough probable cause to arrest anyone. Our desperado needs to remain silent and only ask for a lawyer if they come looking for him.

"When the `Katricians' themselves are quoted as saying the crime rate is going to go up if they don't get more free rent, then it's time to get your concealed-handgun license.” a voice on Houston radio proclaims. Gun shop owner and radio talk-show host, Jim Pruett, voiced this ad. Of course this has become a war of words between the Liberals and Conservatives of this Texas metropolis. Natural disasters take lives, destroy property and levy an emotional toll on humanity. They also bring out the best and worst of human behavior. The first response by criminals is always looting and as police are unable to deal with or prevent crime the gangsters naturally escalate their lawlessness. Of course the law-abiding victims of such catastrophes were the obvious prey for the armed thugs. During and after the evacuations of New Orleans the despot Mayor, Ray Nagin ordered police to rob law abiding citizens of their legally owned firearms and ammunition leaving them helpless ...

Bail is most important for innocent people accused of crimes. It’s not the issue of freedom so much as the pressure for other prisoners to win their own freedom by claiming you confessed to unsolved crimes. This and a whole host of things that can and do interfere with fair trials happen to people forced to stay in custody. The four accused officers were ordered held on outrageously high bail not heard of outside First Degree Murder cases where the death penalty cannot be imposed. Of course the prosecutors are very unhappy but bail is no small part of the Bill of Rights. Yes cops have rights too. The four officers were arrested on September 7 and still face multiple charges including armed violence, home invasion, aggravated kidnapping and delivery of a controlled substance. Now let the justice system grind through this mess and hopefully the right things will happen. The officers can receive as much as 30 years behind bars if convicted. I hope these cases are only hot air and ...

I’ve wanted to be in a film with this stunning actress ever since we met in a Marina Del Rey deli. Well it actually happened and she got naked too! I have a speaking cameo early in the film but unfortunately I’m not in that scene with Bello. William Macy had the real fun! This is a NC-17 rated film that just opened in the theaters. Its called THIS FILM IS NOT YET RATED . This film is a documentary that exposes the inner workings of the Motion Picture Association of America , film ratings system. Filmmakers, Kirby Dick and Eddie Schmidt a couple of years ago first contacted me about their project. They wanted to determine who at the MPAA made ratings decisions and to determine possible conflicts of interest in the process. The independent filmmakers felt that the ratings deck was stacked against them in favor of their competitors, the major studios. I was none too eager as an actor/screenwriter to get into this mix and anger many of my potential employers. Our filmmakers went...

Dateline Freeport Texas--Nothing that goes on in our schools supported by American taxpayers can surprise me anymore. Is this Liberal or just simple insanity? What was Velasco Elementary School’s Principal Sam Williams thinking when allowed a Mexican Independence Day celebration complete with a pledge of allegiance to the Mexican flag in a school supported by American taxpayers? Anyone that wants to support a foreign government is free to leave our soil for good and do so. It’s beyond bizarre to see Mexicans who choose to leave that country, trespass on our soil celebrate anything involving that corrupt government while sucking the benefits of a free education from loyal Americans. Sam Williams needs to be removed from any and all American government payrolls for this slap in the face to every American he facilitated. Williams is a disloyal American has since apologized in an effort to keep his job. It’s too late and we must let every educator in America know this kind of activit...

This little offering at London Fashion Week was part of the Tashi Spring/Summer 2007 collection. It so nice to see designers getting to the bottom of good taste! There’s always hope this too could catch on here. Will your daughter be the first one her block to sport this trendy little outfit?

First let me say I’m no fan of Duane "Dog" Chapman . Chapman is the larger than life convicted felon, who for cash hunts down other felons. The American public’s insatiable and voyeuristic appetite yearning to see life in America’s trailer parks has made the flamboyant Chapman a star of sorts. I have nothing against bounty hunters but I have a problem with felons in general. Chapman paid his debt to society but still carries the, Mark of Cain as an unpardoned felon. Andrew Luster, is heir to the Max Factor fortune, a rapist (convicted in absentia), and bail absconder who fled to Mexico. No, I’m no fan of Luster either. Last is the incredibly corrupt Mexican Nation. I have not had an urge to visit Mexico for any reason. The government is in serious need of an invasion or revolution. The Mexican leaders need to be turned out and soon. Those are the players and I don't like any of them. Chapman tracked down bail jumper Luster in Mexico where Chapman’s trade is proh...

San Francisco is Ground Zero with all that’s wrong with America. Bolsheviks run the city, where homosexuals wallow in decadence, debauchery and doom. It’s a city where cops are viewed to have only one mission, enforcing hate crime laws. San Francisco was not always that way. This once beautiful metropolis was one of the better places to live on the face of the earth. That changed over the last four decades. The laws that regulate police were made by the rest of California’s citizens, who have different and more traditional values. The officers are sworn to uphold all of California’s laws and are not merely the Gay Gestapo. The chief of police, Heather Fong reflects the mentality of today’s San Francisco. She’s not fond of cops either. Last July, Officer Nick-Tomasito Birco was killed in the line of duty while engaged in a vehicle pursuit of a robbery suspect with an incredible criminal history. Of course the local population and their media trashed the officer and his efforts ...

It happened despite every legislative effort to prevent this sort of thing. Chicago does its best to provide safe-working conditions for muggers, rapists and killers through unyielding gun bans. You see in Chicago only criminals and cops can carry guns. Of course there are those politicians who want to disarm the cops too! So far they’ve managed to reduce firing range training from four times per year to one for Chicago police officers. The unthinkable happened this time. Instead of a couple simply turning over their cash or property, they strong-armed one of their armed robbers taking his gun away and shooting him. Wounded, Jon Diego Sylvester, 31 then fled to a get away car. The vigilante killer held a second robber at gunpoint until police arrived. Sylvester’s third unknown accomplice drove him to West Suburban Medical Center in Oak Park where he died. It turned out that the trio of robbers obtained another man’s cash and wristwatch moments earlier. At least that man did not...

Here is a traffic stop and arrest that just could not go right but for the expert handling by a young copper aided by two fellow officers and Taser stun gun. This kid has the right stuff and this video should be shown in every police academy.

I don’t give a rat’s ass if anyone was offended by Pope Benedict’s remarks suggesting, that early Islam was spread by violence. I’m no expert on Islam but we’ve all seen way too many severed heads of the innocent non-believers. History has proven the pope to be correct. When I travel to India I always visit the Golden Temple, which is the seat of the Sikh faith in Amritsar along the Pakistan border. There is a museum there where cameras are forbidden. In the museum are photographs and paintings that go back some six hundred years that document Muslim massacres of Sikhs. One photo shows the turbaned heads of Sikh men displayed in bookcases. A huge painting shows the cowardly Muslim warriors raiding a large Sikh village while the men were away. The Muslim bastards murdered the Sikh women’s babies, cut them into small pieces strung the pieces into garlands and forced the women to wear them around their necks. That of course came in conjunction with mass rape. In early raids on th...

This tale must have been torn from the pages of a Victor Hugo novel. In 1964, a 19 year-old girl was stabbed to death in a Detroit hotel. That was 42 years ago. The suspect was a 34 year-old man by the name of Thomas Ball. God only knows what led up to that horrific killing. Ball was arrested and convicted and sent to prison. Somewhere along the way Ball was diagnosed with mental illness and was sent to a Michigan psychiatric facility where in 1976 he escaped, never to be seen again. That is until now. Something very unusual happened, Ball the escaped and convicted murderer changed his ways, to live an unassuming and quiet law abiding family life. He had a long time relationship with a woman who died a natural death last year just outside of Nashville. Finally the long arm of the law caught up with Ball who is now known as Tom Fry. Ball who is now 76 years-old, has been just scooped up and must face whatever the law puts him through. Before the escape Ball would have been out...

The same punishment that forces convicted pedophiles to register as sex offenders is next for those who run afoul of Chicago’s gun bans and petty firearm registration/taxation schemes. Under a proposed city law, by Aldermen Burke and Carothers anyone with as much as a single conviction under Chicago’s goofy anti-gun rights ordinances would be required to check in with the cops every six months. They’d be forced to provide information of their name and or alias, as well as their height, weight, eye color, driver's license information and a photo ID. Offenders also would have to provide police with their place of employment and details of their conviction. Under another feel-good proposal by Alderman Burt Natarus plans to outlaw any sale or transfer of a BB gun. Chicago’s politicians have a hatred for Freedom, Liberty and the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution. Update: A lawyer who is a recognized gun law expert informed me that Burt Natarus' deam BB gun prohibit...

Nearly four years ago I visited the VA Hospital in the Westwood area of Los Angeles. I was both shocked and offended to see an airport style gauntlet of X-Ray machines and metal detectors manned by VA police officers. It was beyond sad to me to watch the heroes and defenders of our freedom searched like criminals while seeking their health care needs. I should have complained loudly but I was silent about this travesty. I can’t imagine what ignoramus bureaucrat could have possibly ordered this un-American insult. I figured it had to be some non-veteran political hack who thought he was doing something wonderful. Let me say that there are a small percentage of veterans who find themselves hospitalized there for metal health and drug abuse reasons. I guess you could argue that something bad could happen. This, while I have not seen one other hospital in the United States frisking patients and visitors. The excuse for this ongoing outrage and civil rights violation was non-existent...

I hope to see that headline soon. Of course I mean just from television. This pretend journalist former prosecutor again proved her worthlessness by badgering a mother of a missing toddler on national television. The woman, Melinda Duckett promptly killed herself after Grace’s outrageous grilling. It’s one thing for a cop or prosecutor on the inside of an investigation to conduct a confrontational interview in a private interrogation room. It’s another for a media outsider to try this on national television as a form of infotainment to boost sagging ratings. The cops and prosecutors at least have all of the information connected to the investigation. Nancy Grace was not privy to that kind of information. Grace’s actions were nothing short of meddling in an ongoing police investigation that apparently drove a distraught woman to suicide. Grace wants us to believe she was just “helping” this mystery to a solution. We have to remember Grace is not a cop or prosecutor but merely som...

Talk about a paradox! Instead of going after the enemy we make war on America’s own airline passengers. Instead of relentlessly bombing the countries responsible for or supporting the carnage of 9/11, we sacrifice our troops by invading the countries to sort out the good guys from the bad. Talk about an impossible and utterly ridiculous military mission! We can use one real and unforgettable show of force to cause these Muslims to behave or simply eliminate these populations that spawn the cancer. We have the tools to do the job and should use them instead of watching our children coming home in rubber bags and wheelchairs. George Bush and our politicians tell us we are at war. I say then let’s fight a real war and send our troops home. As for our anti-terrorism programs at home they must begin and end strictly through the proven use of profiling for those most likely to do us harm. Political correctness has no place in any war on terror. Instead of wasting time watching our po...

I found this great clip and want to share it with my copper friends. This is Jack Webb as Sergeant Joe Friday explaining what it is to be a cop to the young rookie, played by actor Kent McCord.

To determine the exact cause and manner of a person’s death requires a complete internal examination. This video shows how this is done. This young woman died a premature death that authorities suspect is the result of an accidental drug overdose. Most people have only heard about these medical examinations that happen after death. Usually specialists called forensic pathologists perform them. Part of this kind of an examination involves a multitude of toxicology tests to find drugs and poisons. Each organ is examined, weighed, and sectioned with a portion of tissues being saved. Unless an attending physician has been treating someone for a life threatening aliment for a while and can determine the cause of death as being from that malady an autopsy must be performed. During autopsies the pathologists are very talkative often speaking into a recorder microphone while doing the examination. Unfortunately there is no audio so we don’t Aknow what is being found that contributed to ...

Hitler’s Gestapo is alive and well as they raided a Chicago man’s Northwest side home because he collects firearms in America where the Constitution gives all people the right to keep and bear arms. Yes, another White man with ho history of crime or violence was arrested and his gun collection taken away. Chicago fireman Ted Kozak is a collector of guns and other war relics. By law he’s required to live in Chicago where guns are banned or lose his job, pension and livelihood. As usual cops claim he had machineguns (they are nearly always tested later and found not to be machineguns). A pinhead BATFE spokesman told the Chicago Sun Times that one of them was “a Sten machine-gun (sic), which had been issued to German troops”. Sten machineguns were made and issued by the UK, not the Germans. There are plenty of semi-automatic replicas of the Sten available made for collectors like Kozak. . The claim that he had a Thompson machinegun is going to fizzle since there are loads of Thomps...

A convicted kidnapper, rapist, robber and ex-convict, 35 year-old, Dedrick Griham has escaped from prison and needs to be put to sleep like a mad dog. Here was his last brush with the law . News Flash! They caught this mutant and he's now in custody !

It’s a tragic tale of an actor in Hollywood in the 1950’s. George Reeves was the star of the hugely popular Adventures of Superman. Reeves was a serious actor who knew taking such a role could terminally typecast him. Reeves was killed in his home at 1579 Benedict Canyon Drive, Beverly Hills on June 16, 1959 from a gun shot wound to his head. The death was ruled a suicide. Reeves is special to me because as a five year old I’d rush next door to a lucky playmate’s apartment who had a TV set to watch this exciting series. At five, I found George Reeves to be a real hero and Noel Neil to be the girl of my dreams when she played Lois Lane. I was a fifth grader when I learned of Reeves death. Every kid I knew was saddened by Reeves untimely death. The Hollywood of the 1950’s is really not much different than today’s Hollywood. Powerful people change lives for better or worse every day. Hollywood has its dark side. Making films is sometimes a cutthroat business. Hollywood is a pl...

Dateline Portland, OR---Talk about strange news stories, this one is unusual! Emergency room nurse, Susan Kuhnhausen, 51, returned home from work to find Edward Dalton Haffey, 59 burglarizing her dwelling. Haffey, who was armed with a hammer was quickly strangled to death by Kuhnhausen using only her bare hands! Kuhnhausen is a hefty gal who outweighed the five foot nine 180 pound crook by some 80 pounds. Police have determined that Kuhnhausen used reasonable force and her actions were justified. The dead man was a career criminal with a long history. Kuhnhausen surpassed even the legendary Nurse Rached from the Cuckoo’s Nest! Crimefile salutes Kuhnhausen for being one spunky old gal! Update! That was no simple burglar! The cops say that dead guy was a hit man hired by Susan Kuhnhausen's estranged husban to kill her! Read about it here .

The Chicago Police department has had troubles in its history. None seem so serious as the latest saga of corruption. I only hope this is overblown and more sizzle than substance. I’ve heard the rumors for a while and avoided spreading them but now four cops of the Special Operations Section have been arrested and are facing Class X Felony charges. Class X charges carry 30-year prison terms. Right now officers Jerome Finnigan, 43; Thomas Sherry, 32; Carl Suchocki, 32, and Keith Herrera, 28, have been charged with an array of despicable acts including kidnapping, home invasion and drug charges. The current allegations among other things are that the officers raided drug dealers, stealing all the guns, drugs and money. Some arrestees have claimed they were framed by officers using narcotics stolen by the cops from other criminals. Four more officers including a sergeant are also suspected, have been stripped of their guns, stars and police powers and are under investigation. The eas...

If you are a home invasion burglar or rapist let me direct you straight to the upscale Chicago suburb of Wilmette, IL to enhance your career. The folks in this town are really wealthy. The young women are Grade A Choice. The folks here are all unarmed! This village has banned handguns for its residents. Wilmette provides great opportunities and easy pickin’s just for you. Why risk life and limb anywhere else? 34 year-old, Mario Billings is a man who knows! Oops! Three years ago there was a little glitch in Billing’s exciting career as a home invasion robber. You see he picked the home of Hale Demar to burglarize twice! The second time the outrageous Mr. Demar had armed himself with a handgun despite Wilmette’s ban. When Billings returned the second time, that awful Mr. Demar used that illegal gun to hurt this poor man! The good news was that the long arm of the law swung into action and arrested Mr. Demar who was punished for his indiscretion. Wilmette officials could not char...

Among other things the Clinton Administration had two groups to deal with. One was a self-professed preacher, and his flock of people with no history or plans of violence. They were David Koresh and his Branch Davidian’s of Waco Texas. Some of the Davidians made the mistake of not respecting recently passed gun control laws. The other was a terror group with a track record of extreme hatred and violence. That was the Al Qaeda bunch founded in 1988 by Osama Bin Laden. We all know who was and is the real danger to our society. The Clinton Administration was much more emotional about its love of gun bans and hatred of gun rights in America than any very real foreign threats. It was with great resolve that Clinton and his Attorney General Janet Reno ordered tanks and helicopters to wage war on the Waco church’s men, women and children. This while the Clinton mob could not stomach taking Bin Laden out while they had plenty of chances to do so. Frankly I think every American would ha...

The California Board of Parole has denied convicted Manson Family Killer for the sixteenth time. Van Houten has been in prison for nearly four decades after being convicted of killing Leno and Rosemary LaBianca during a horrific home invasion at their Los Feliz Home in 1969. According to corrections spokesman Tip Kindell, the board determined that Van Houten still presents a risk to public safety. The board heard from three perennial witnesses, two relatives of the victims and a prosecutor opposing Van Houten’s parole. For the first time at a parole hearing, Van Houten and her attorney refused to talk about the macabre details of the crime with board members. L.A lawyer, Christy Webb did most of the talking on Van Houten’s behalf. The Board members recognized Van Houten’s exceptional progress. Instead of making her wait another two years for the next hearing the board ordered another review in 12 months with the admonishment that this does not mean she will in fact be parol...

Dateline Hollywood --- Rich girl, model and sometime porn star, Paris Hilton normally walks really well on the runway. Last night however she did not walk so well during a session of Simon Sez she was performing for a Hollywood Division copper’s field sobriety test. Soon the officer had Hilton doing the “perp walk” in front of police booking camera. That photo when released will be the magazine cover shot Hilton won’t like. The good news for Hilton is there is no such thing as bad publicity. Of course you can always check out the video at TMZ.com .

I don’t know how Chicago’s Mayors never get sent to Club Fed. I’ve been hearing juicy rumors for four years that Richard M. Daley may get a vacation there soon but who knows for sure. As for the Governors of Illinois, I’ve seen three get sentenced to the club. Otto Kerner, who had a brilliant military career, served on important Presidential Commissions, was elected Governor, and resigned to accept a seat as a Judge on the United States Court of Appeals. Kerner fell from Judgeship for corruption as Governor right into a prison cell. Kerner died a defeated man in 1976. I met Kerner’s beautiful daughter and her brother just after the old man died. These fine kids suffered tremendously as a result of Judge Kerner’s crimes. Dan Walker, a political gadfly, and lawyer worked for Chicago’s Montgomery Wards. Walker won the Governor’s office as a Maverick, Left Wing Democrat after he walked the entire state in an unusual campaign. Walker after leaving office got caught with his hands in the coo...

Gina Gallo worked the really tough assignments in Chicago for 16 years but due to serious injuries in the line of duty she was forced into an early retirement. With a Master’s Degree Gallo was better educated than most cops and was by no means a wilting violet. Gallo could kick ass and take names with the best of them but what would you expect from a second-generation cop? During her police career Gallo, a single mom raised two fine boys who have since grown up and made their mom proud though their military service. Incidentally, Gallo is a six-foot tall Amazon warrior and adrenalin junkie who has graduated to the ranks of accomplished writers. Gallo’s books hit the street a while back and are available through her website , but now at least one her books is in development for a film. I strongly suspect that great things will be flowing from Gallo’s red-hot computer for many years to come. Gallo has opened those Hollywood doors with a sledgehammer just like if they were at the en...

I videotaped a beautiful and majestic stingray while in Maui. I know that Steve Irwin loved all these critters and would never feel contempt for one that injured or killed him. The incredible energy and enthusiasm displayed by Irwin made him a larger than life legend. Steve was a world-class showman, conservationist and teacher. Millions of children and adults have been touched by Steve Irwin’s wonderful but short life. It will be impossible to fill this icon’s shoes. I thought Steve would like Christopher Cross', Sailing for this relaxing video.

Which one you ask? They are clones of each other, Texas Liberals that think they’re conservative. Neither Bush was forthright with their promises to voters and led us into more massive government spending. The freefall immigration agenda of George W. Bush amounts to nothing short of treason. The threat to our economy and way of life from illegal immigration is far more severe than what’s going on in those rogue Arab nations. I was never supportive of the war in Iraq but support every last one of our soldiers. When you make war you don’t come in and try to separate the good guys from the bad. You bomb until there is only scorched earth. The Bush policy in Iraq stinks and is killing our soldiers. The Democrats have gone so far to the land of Karl Marx that they won’t settle until we are all slaves with their tax plans. The Democrats have nothing to offer America except poverty and pain unless you’re a government contractor. In short we are now stuck with the most worthless bunch o...

Tomorrow at the L.A. Superior Court, Dept 108, jury selection is expected to begin in the trial of 89 year old Russell Weller for the July 16, 2003 horrific accident that killed 10 and injured 60 people at the Santa Monica Farmer’s Market. Weller's trial is not expected to begin with opening statements until after September 11, 2006 This is a case of an elderly driver suffering from the ageing process and a colossal tragedy. Weller has an otherwise unblemished record in spite of living longer then most Americans. The trial will prove be a battle of high rent experts paid to testify about the ageing process and it’s effect on drivers. Steve Cooley’s office is contending Weller’s mishap was no accident but the result of a violent crime without possessing any real evidence of intent. The defense led by Mark Overland will argue that this was the case of a decent elderly man who simply thought he had his foot on the break pedal instead of the accelerator. The harder Weller pushed th...

Steve Irwin, 44 was the director of the Australia Zoo in Queensland, Australia, and host of Animal Planet's series The Crocodile Hunter. He was a consummate adventurer who was every bit a great entertainer. Steve died the way he lived playing among God's creatures. A stingray somehow managed to penetrate Irwin’s heart with his stinger tail. Irwin died with his boots on. I wish his pretty wife Terri Irwin a giant hug from all of us. We all lost someone special.

When I take one of my trips to India I can’t help but think of that James Bond Movie, Octapussy filmed there. The fantasy of the beautiful women, gadgets, and guns can cause an overactive imagination to run wild. Bond always gets the girl and never flies coach in a commercial aircraft. Oh well. Here from the sound track is the lovely Rita Coolidge singing that great song from Octapussy.

Back when young Adam Gadahn was first spotted on the media radar I conducted an extensive background investigation on the lad. I found his assault case against a leader of the Muslim Mosque in Gardenia, CA. He lived both in L.A. and his father's goat farm in rural Orange County. After September 11, 2001, Gadahn quickly gathered his Muslim credentials and moved to Pakistan and is now with the leadership of that terror group. The most unusual thing about this fellow was his Jewish heritage. He changed from his father’s name, Pearlman to Gadahn. Adam Pearlman is not an Arab name by any stretch. After investigating his family I became convinced he was a plant. I just don’t see Al-Qaeda folks being so tolerant as to knowingly allow a Jew into their midst. Despite the FBI officially requesting information they curiously have not listed Gadahn/Pearlman as wanted even after his videotaped propaganda statements were broadcast around the world. I can only think of one possible reason...
