Here we are. Just on the down side of winter. The middle of February. February. The shortest, yet longest month of the year for us sunshine addicts. Longer darkness for the day than sunlight.

This is when that feared “cabin fever” phenomenon starts picking its victims ya know. ... read more

If not... as the story goes, to one's doom. Not familiar with the story? It goes like this ...read more
WorldNetDaily.com has been tracking a story for a few years that should be given some notice.

A story that can boggle your mind on how a local ordinance could be passed that violates at least two basic liberties guaranteed in the U.S. Constitution.
