- My class was busy looking for aquatic insects in the pools and sometimes flowing parts of Clanton Creek in Clanton Draw (Yes- those Clantons!) on the east side of the Peloncillo Mountains. This is a little known gem of a canyon in the Coronado National...10 comments 21 Recs
- On Saturday January 12, the government shutdown became the longest in American history, eclipsing the former record of 21 days. At the forefront of this burgeoning disaster is Mitch McConnell, a one-man blockade to re-opening the government. I don’t...221 comments 293 Recs

- Sir Michael Philip Jagger is turning 75 today. Since I am close to 70, myself, I have experienced Jagger and the Rolling Stones from as much of the beginning as any Yank could. How could you not love the Stones; their music was rooted on our own...23 comments 15 Recs
- ' O tempora, o mores! ' Said Marcus Tullius Cicero, senator and Consul of Rome, in about 60 B.C. 'Oh the times, Oh the customs!'. It is a plaint often repeated down the ages, when confronted by ...44 comments 126 Recs
