Debt-Proof Living By Mary Hunt Mortgages, credit card balances, student loans, car loans, and home improvement loans have become a way of life. All that debt is putting not only our present at risk as we live paycheck to paycheck but our futures in jeopardy, as shockingly few of us have enough put away for […]
First posted May 1, 2009 Obama still wants to give illegal immigrants a “pathway” to become legal. I’m sorry, but that pathway should have started at the border.

I saw this over at The Looking Spoon and just had to share it with you.
I recently read a book titled Confessions of a Shopaholic. Is this a book you could have written? Do you really enjoy shopping a lot? Do you shop when you’re sad or depressed? Do you shop when you’re bored? Do you shop when you want to celebrate? Do you shop just because you deserve to […]

Those are all the folks who thought the counting of years started with year zero rather than year 1. Maybe when they learned to count, it was zero through nine. I was taught one through […]
CNN’s “State of the Union,” host and Chief National Correspondent John King tells the story of the bare bones life on the Cheyenne River Reservation.
