Green Grout

Is there nothing left in this world that can safely be considered un-Green? Even a grout cleaning service advertises its "green cleaning solutions" to a somnambulant herd of consumers obsessed with cleanliness and fearful of mold. We're talking about cleaning grout here - not lawn care or light bulbs or bubble bath. So I asked to see some of the green solutions, as advertised, and sure enough you can hire these guys to come to your house and power wash your bathroom tile and grout with soap suds. Does it work? Not as well as the chemicals do, but you might feel better about yourself for having taken the green path of least resistance. I guess if the US Military can go green then anybody can but I long for the pre-Green days of my youth when no one even thought of discussing environmentally conscious grout cleaning techniques. I'm not sure it was a simpler time, but it was a heck of a lot more honest and fun - now they want us to count every kilowatt, drive with the emergency break on and clean the floors with saliva dripping off our parched tongue for the privilege of calling ourselves Green. I reject this subtle mind manipulation designed to impose a world of scarcity, fear and (being green) envy into the body politic. I know that great damage has already been done to many good, well meaning citizens who can't see behind the green curtain, but believe me, the wizards are just fools and whores - nothing more.

The Real Story with Gretchen Carlson

She was "sexy", but "too much hard work." I'm a regular Fox & Friends viewer (mostly in protest of the other insipid morning programs like Today and Good Morning America) so over the years I've gotten to know Gretchen Carlson pretty well. Stuck between Steve and Brian she always seemed a prudish scold with an irritating, self-righteous demeanor that I simply put up with because I figured some people in the Fox audience actually liked her persona. It was obvious that Steve and Brian did not, but they were stuck with her like so many talking heads and had to make the best of it - which they did. Besides, she was no worse than any of the other women on morning show TV - I mean, you're only going to find a certain kind of person to do this kind of work and that kind of person is the Gretchen Carlson kind. Then, one day, she was gone and replaced by Elisabeth Hasselbeck and the F&F ratings began to climb, and climb and climb - in two months view

Psycho Killer, qu'est-ce?

I came into this wicked world in the early 1960's and as a result I have born witness to America's 50 Years of Failure which includes the modern age of mass shootings by psychotic men who "go off" on a given day, for no reason at all (except "guns"), and kill scads of innocent bystanders. Back in August of 2019 a KOTCB blog post titled " Reciprocity City " explored a young  gunman  named Patrick Crusius  who drove 9 hours through the west Texas flatlands to shoot up El Paso, TX The KOTCB has commented on many of these shootings, bombings and knifings over the years -  The roots of the Boston Marathon Bombing ,  the Emanuel AME Church shooting ,  Syed Rizvan Farook and his bride Tashfeen Malik ,  Ft. Lauderdale Airport shooting ,  Nick Cruz lovesick Parkland shooting ,  the Iranian, PETA activist, Vegan Bodybuilder, YouTuber's attack on Google  and now this very oddly timed and placed "lone wolf" attack on Walmart shoppers. This list

Who voted for this guy?

Who voted for this guy? It's been ten days since the results of the Maricopa County, Arizona ballot audit were released to the public and presented at a hearing held by the state senate. This exercise in democratic accountability had been going on for months and, if reports are to be believed, was completed well over a  month before the September 24th hearing where   overwhelming proof of an illegitimate election was presented to lawmakers . The audit showed multiple irregularities, fake ballots, duplicate counts, errors, omissions and egregious acts of sabotage and obstinance by the Maricopa County board of supervisors who did everything they could to withhold and destroy evidence of wrongdoing from the citizen sleuths. The misfeasance of Arizona's political leaders was clearly defined, shocking and (for some) beyond belief but somehow these facts were discovered, organized, packaged and suppressed for MONTHS by the Cyber Ninjas who were attempting to "get to the bottom&q
