Small Town America

Lindstrom, MN :)

Taken out the car window. Stuck out my left hand. (I was stopped)

Flashes of red

On the wing. And poppies around town this Memorial Day weekend.

Tea Party New Year

One nation, under God. Bless America.

A Ninja Cow Before Christmas

The legend out of Nebraska.

Occupy yourselves, lefties

Listen and learn. Via small dead animals, Daniel Hannan's 10 pt memo to the OWS crowd. This is pretty funny:

We are not against equality. We generally recognise the benefits in Scandinavian-style homogeneity: crime tends to be lower, people are less stressed etc.

Get honest.

Talking Turkey

The cost of a Thanksgiving dinner is up 13%.

And millennials are moving in with the 'rents:

According to Census data, 5.9 million Americans between 25 and 34 years of age—nearly a quarter of whom have bachelor's degrees—live with their parents, a significant increase from 4.7 million before the recession.

But many parents can't afford the extra expense. A full 26% of those polled by the nonprofit group took on more debt to help their offspring, 13% delayed a planned life event such as a home purchase, and 7% postponed retirement.

Compounding the problem is the fact that certain parents are crowding the younger generation out of the job market because their support of their grown kids means they can't afford to retire.

It's potluck around the table. That pricey turkey economy.

P.S. Retirement wars. The growing "wealth gap" between old and young could get ugly as it dawns on the latter that they won't have anything to retire on. #OccupyReality  Some of their parents won't either.

The Fraudulent Franken Majority

Minnesota leads the nation in voter fraud convictions:... as a tiny non-profit corporation, we netted more than double the number of convictions in one year than the US Department of Justice was able to find in five
