Promises Not Kept

Posted on September 7, 2019 by Robert Pogson

Mueller

Posted on July 24, 2019 by Robert Pogson

Well, I watched paint dry today, I mean Mueller’s interviews with Congress. It was a sad affair. While claiming to stick to what his report contained, he was utterly passionless, bumbling, deaf, grumbling and uncooperative about collusion and obstruction. He … Continue reading →

Prospects

Posted on April 17, 2019 by Robert Pogson

I’d like to share what I know about the future. Trump knows it too. He’s been campaigning like mad and fundraising from Day One. He still won’t win. Folks who were sure Hillary would win and didn’t bother to work … Continue reading →

To Grow Or Not To Grow…

Posted on April 6, 2019 by Robert Pogson

I had a surprise this week. I glanced over my stratifying seeds in the refrigerator and found my Sugar Maple, Acer saccharum, seeds were germinating. I quickly transplanted them to pots in my kitchen. That was a mistake as they … Continue reading →

Schultz

Posted on February 13, 2019 by Robert Pogson

That’s Howard Schultz, the Starbucks coffee guy.  He participated in a “Town Hall” session on CNN last night. He’s half-baked. He’s like Trump, hiding massive details behind a single number or “fact”. He couldn’t answer simple questions like why he … Continue reading →
