    American capitalism is a house divided.

  • Welcome, guests; Goodbye, sanity

Arnold Schwarzenegger circa the 2003 “total recall” election was going to sweep all before him as California governor, bringing the same élan and toughness he had on the big screen to fighting special interests and restoring his beloved state to competitiveness.

  • Death by sweat
    I recently resumed workouts with my trainer, Grizelda the Queen Witch of the Northwest.
