Chicago, IL —It was in September of 1982. I had recently left the bitter cold, Windy City to enjoy the next chapter of my life in Phoenix, Arizona. There was no Internet to keep up with friends and news like there is today. There was a National news story that was shocking to say the least. People in the Chicago area were randomly murdered by some terrorist placing cyanide into Tylenol capsules and putting them on store shelves for purchase. People were dropping dead and Tylenol its maker, Johnson & Johnson suddenly had a public relations nightmare. The motive has never been clear but I subscribed to the two most popular theories. Someone murdered a victim they lived with who was a regular Tylenol user by this method. At the same time the offender spread the deadly booby-trapped pain medication around to confuse investigators. The other motive seemed to be simple extortion. When I mustered out of the Army in 1970 I returned to live in the Old Town area of Chicago. Back then, I ke...

Washington, DC --As the Ultra Left Wing gained total control over all Americans we absolutely need to eliminate the death penalty. Many of us are expecting the worst as our economy is tanking and out free market system is under a massive Socialist attack. Martial Law can’t be far behind. As they begin efforts to seize firearms and other property it will be Conservatives and gun owners they will try and execute through the courts. Why entrust the dark forces with this kind of power? The life you save may be your own or someone important to you. As for criminals they can rot in prison. We may however soon see political prisoners in our own country.

Bolingbrook, IL —The entire world knows all about retired police sergeant, Drew Peterson’s love life. This tabloid driven mystery story surrounds two young women, one dead and one missing. Both women were married to Peterson and suspicious minds have zeroed in on Peterson as an evil creator of the mystery. The truth is that we just don’t know what’s behind the circumstances. It’s no secret that Peterson has a fascination with supple, pretty and much younger women. I’m not sure what people think about this issue but we all know younger women are energetic, fun and better looking than most middle aged women. Middle aged men still enjoy the attributes of younger women. We all know too many middle aged women who no longer know how to laugh and have fun. Ageing is equally unkind to most women as it is to flowers. Recently I had a chat with Peterson’s lawyer, Joel Brodsky . Brodsky gave me a little insight into the latest chapter of Drew Peterson’s current world. Brodsky told me h...

Washington, DC — Barack Obama is either dumb, a fool or thinks the Constitution is his to amend on a whim. The bailouts given to the business and banks can’t interfere with private contracts. These failing and rogue outfits can pay their executives whatever they want despite bailouts. The Bolsheviks may be in power now but they are still running a country subject to our Constitution. When they break the Constitution the shooting and bombing will begin here as it should. The bailouts were the beginning of the destruction of our way of life. Bailouts are grossly unfair to the properly run and profitable banks and business of America. American style private enterprise demands that the crappy business fail and better run outfits take their place in a free market. I guess Obama thinks he’s been elected to be, The Bolshevik Wizard of Oz. Obama is heading down a dangerous path. Lives will be ruined and extinguished with the reckless Socialist changes in this country that has soundly ...

When Sheriff Michael Carona was accused of among other things selling permits to carry guns, he resigned and was replaced by a political appointee, Sandra Hutchens . Hutchens apparently has a strong distaste for the Second Amendment and anyone who supports gun rights. Hutchens wasted no time pandering to her own gun rights hatred and began revoking existing permits and rejecting new applications. This is a sensitive issue in Orange County and a November 2008 hearing was held to study the permit policy of Sheriff Hutchens. When the matter of concealed weapon permits and issuance policies came up before the Orange County Board, sheriff’s officials acting under Hutchens brought a gauntlet of intimidating cops to provide extra security at the meeting. This sent an ugly message that Sheriff Hutchens feels the citizens coming to participate in their own government’s business are somehow dangerous. Hutchens hand-picked political hacks like Assistant Sheriff Mike Hillmann , sheriff's ...

Washington, DC— The most far reaching gun confiscation enabling law ever, has hit the Congressional hopper. Despite Obama’s pledges to support the Second Amendment the new President and his merry band of traitors have have big plans for those people who dare cling to guns and religion. Our currency faces the prospect of becoming worthless with the planned unchecked printing and spending. The Far Left now has absolute power. We are facing the same problems Europe suffered after World War I . Political power shifted from a democracy to a dictatorship. Unrest in the United States due to millions being idle, homeless and hungry will lead to Martial Law and government efforts to control people angry with their government. If American police and military troops won’t control the population help will be sought from UN and foreign military troops offered by Communist Countries. It will be done for "our safety". New York, California and Illinois Bolsheviks think the rest of the...

Clear Lake, IA —It was 1959 and three wonderful, young, music making pioneers, Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson were on a light plane that crashed killing all aboard. Holley was only 22 and has influenced music ever since. The other boys were also in the beginnings of skyrocketing careers. We are all poorer being deprived of music they all might still be making today had fate not intervened. I met another great entertainer who lost a coin toss for that very plane ride but won his life and career instead. That was the late, great Waylon Jennings who was a pal of KTVK-TV’s former owner Del Lewis in Phoenix. Jennings would stop by from time to time to perform for Good Morning Arizona . If Holly lived he’d be 72 years old today. I hope there is a Rock and Roll Heaven with one Hell of a band. They’ve been gone so long bet left us all music we still listen to today along with bittersweet memories. Don McClain and his hit song got it wrong, thankfully the...
