Hard to Fathom
Author: Raine    Date: 01/09/2025 13:55:37

Watching the images from Los Angeles, it's hard to comprehend the enormity of the disaster. Those of us who have listened to the SMS show have a special fondness for those involved, many of whom lie in the area.

The Mountain and The Abyss
Author: BobR    Date: 01/08/2025 14:02:04

President Jimmy Carter is lying in repose in the Capitol building. He was the first president I voted for. He's not well known for his accomplishments as president, but more so for his activity afterwards with Habitat For Humanity. I am not going to do a retrospective on him, since there are plenty of them out there, written by people with more experience, time, and resources at their disposal.

Good Morning.

Well, there is some fallout from the New Years' Day attacks.

Never forget.
Author: Raine    Date: 01/06/2025 14:47:36

We said that after 9/11, with all the bravado patriotism, and chest-thumping.

Now here we are, on the fourth anniversary of the insurrection, they want us to forget. I won't.

First Friday of 2025
Author: wickedpam    Date: 2025-01-03 13:00:00

Do think I have any words about the start of the new year. Did not think it would be off the rails by 3am January first.

Prayers and healing vibes go out to all affected by both horrific events.

Here are some Shetland ponies to maybe bring some healing.

Seriously, WTF?
Author: Raine    Date: 01/02/2025 14:31:42

Today is January 2, 2025. So far, five people have been killed and multiple injuries after a terrorist attack in New Orleans. One person died after a cybertruck exploded outside of Trump Hotel in Las Vegas. Ten were killed in a shooting at a Queens nightclub.

Happy New Year?
Author: BobR    Date: 01/01/2025 14:37:19

It's a brand new year. We'd like to think that means new possibilities and a fresh start. "Fresh", however, doesn't seem apt. It's like we're living the nightmare of 2017 all over again. On Friday, the Senate control falls to the Republicans. On Jan 20th, we'll have a Nazi-promoting Afrikaaner as close advisor to the incoming pResident, and a cabinet of assholes, imbeciles, and clowns.

Fair Well, Kind Sir
Author: Raine    Date: 12/30/2024 15:07:38

President Carter has left this Earth. There isn't a lot I can say that others already have.

I am of the belief that while he deserves accolades for the things he did after being in office, he doesn't get credit for all he did while in office

Sure has been a year, hasn't it?
Author: TriSec    Date: 12/28/2024 14:49:18

I don’t often indulge in retrospectives, but this year proved to be a titanic upheaval in the TriSec compound, so I can’t simply ignore it – despite my desperately wanting to.
