Thomas Jefferson on Shooting as Bodily Exercise
The following, snagged from an outlying precinct of cyberspace, sounded bogus, so I put Snopes on the case: A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with…

Contraindicated: Resisting Arrest
It may be harmful to your health. The meme below makes a very important point. Everyone, but blacks in particular, need to learn that the police have legitimate authority and that their commands must be obeyed. Not to do so is not only illegal but highly imprudent.

A Superspreader Testing Center
Some of us have been through many a flu season. Did we ever have ourselves tested? Why get tested for a disease for which you have no symptoms?

5K or Marathon: Which is Harder?
Which is harder, to run 3.1 miles or 26.2? They are equally hard for the runner who runs right. The agony and the ecstasy at the end of a race run right is the same whether induced by 42.2 km of LSD or 5 km of POT. Below, I am approaching the final stretch of…

What follows is from my first weblog, and is dated 4 May 2004. The photo was taken this morning by Dennis Murray, fellow aficionado of strenuous pursuits. ………………… Time was, when running was my exercise, the daily bread of my cardiovascular system.

Is ‘Wuhan Virus’ Racist?
I'll grant you that it is if you grant me that leftism is a deadly virus and that leftists, 'liberals,' 'progressives,' and members of the Democrat Party in the USA knowingly and willingly carry and transmit it. Do we have a deal? But if 'Wuhan Virus' is racist, then then so are the following: West…
