Honoring my Daddy on Veteran's Day. Son of an AL cotton farmer. Career Navy. WWII in the Pacific on the Wisconsin.

Taught me to know my civic responsibility and to love my country. He fought for me to have that freedom.

Thank you for your service to this country and to me.

These Dems are thinking about caving. You know what to do.

Good book to help confront it. They are some sick people.

My dear friend, Gene Edgerton, wrote this "gutsy and tender" story of a reluctant gay super hero. It is a wonderful read with vivid descriptions and powerful lessons for overcoming adversity and finding love.

Seeing this gutted me. I wrote what I consider to be my final letter to my representative, Sens Blackburn, Haggerty and Rep Harshbarger. It is a rebuke for doing nothing to stop any of this.

"It's sadly not a coincidence that some of the most historically bigoted and segregated parts of this American Land have also been known as the "Bible Belt". And if there's one thing I've learned, it's that nobody hates like a Christian who's just been told their hate isn't Christian." J. Fugelsang

So, the last few days have really hurt this old woman emotionally. I find myself really disgusted by my silent Republican congressional representives: Sens Blackburn and Haggerty and Rep Harshbarger. I wrote them.

I decided to let you all read it because they probably will not. I rebuke them.

AI may be the best thing since sliced bread but I don't think humanity has enough common sense to employ it beneficially.

It will be used for greedy purposes and not to benefit humanity. It will replace human work, facilitate idle human brains and allow the flourishing of misinformation.

Fun crowd in Johnson City, TN for No King march. This is one of my favorite signs!

No distruptors. Lots of support from people driving by!

My (ate up with it) MAGA neighbor said to me, "How come all the smart (think he meant educated) people vote Democrat?

Why? Need to formulate a better answer than what I gave him

Following the principle of occam's razor, I told him because Mega's are dumb asses. Just sayin?.

I just finished Kamala's book, 107 DAYS. It was her voice. She was honest yet graceful.

When she knew she had lost, she said, "My God, my God, what will happen to our country?".

I cried from that point to the end. Because, now we know.

I am a Christian and am sick of hearing how they are under attack.

They are under attack for NOT LIVING THEIR FAITH. We learn early on this passage and the what it means.

Churches are now mostly exclusive "religious country clubs" viewing the world through self righteous eyes.

Matthew 25:31-46

Someone asked me why there were so many churches in East TN. There are slews of unordained MEN who feel God has spoken to them and they need to deliver that PARTICULAR message. People move around until they find a message that "tickles their ears. Group think. No challenges. No growth. Dangerous.

GASLIGHTING!

As of late September 2025, former President Donald Trump has issued a series of executive actions and statements targeting left-wing political violence, which he and his administration have labeled "domestic terrorism".

These are advertisers for WCYB, NBC Sinclair owned affiliate. Watch to see local advertisers.

If you live in East Tennessee here are the main advertisers for the ABC affiliate station (WJHL). Watch and you may see more local. Bristol Raceway, Home Depot and Food City are largest and are Maga facing. Make'em flinch with enough calls or boycotts. WE THE PEOPLE.

Robert Redford was a favorite of mine. He will be missed as an actor, a director and an environmental activist. He leaves a lovely legacy.
