The book has spawned a catalogue of additional works discussing the original. And Ron Howard is... Continue Reading

However, since it is so beautiful here, it is hard to... Continue Reading

His room will soon be Khaki (why can't we just... Continue Reading

Unbelievable. Simply unbelievable. The liberal media is once again, allowing Senator Ted Kennedy to get away with murder. No, it's not another Chappaquiddick. No, this time Senator Kennedy has put his foot in his mouth with incredibly racially insensitive comments. Regarding the President's judicial nominees, Janice Rogers Brown and Miguel Estrada (African American and Hispanic, respectively), Senator Kennedy called them "Neanderthals"! Kennedy is not apologizing and the liberal media is not holding him accountable. If... Continue Reading
