Attention, parents: If your children are online, they are being bombarded by an inescapable public relations campaign by all the Bigs -- Big Pharma, Big Government and Big Tech -- to brainwash them about the COVID vaccine.

I haven’t seen much humor in life during the past year or so, but one thing that has been uproariously hilarious lately is the orchestrated media narrative that President Joe Biden is bipartisan and conciliatory. Please give me a moment to catch my breath.

Congressional Democrats have introduced legislation that would add four more justices to the U.S. Supreme Court, boosting the number of justices on the bench from nine to 13, as Democrat congressional leaders are going all-in on packing the Supreme Court. This is just more evidence that the very slender, far-left Democrat majority intends to seize and maintain power using any tactic available, even if it means destroying the independence of the judicial branch of government.

I am a small business owner. I’ve been in the car business for 50 years, and I’d like to think I’ve seen it all; recessions, record gas prices, high and low interest rates, and now a global pandemic.

The 2021 baseball season isn’t even a month old, and it’s already over for some fans. Why? Because the Left ruins everything. Sports, entertainment, toys, snack cakes, you name it. Their wokeness is a cancer, and it’s taking every enjoyable, unifying, non-political piece of American life and destroying it.

Summer and warmer weather will soon be upon us, and school will adjourn for the year. We moved to Lometa, Lampasas County, two years ago. We were delighted to discover the Hanna Springs Swimming Pool and park. Our grandchildren loved the water slide, and the shallow end was great for our 3-yearold grandson.

After spending almost a year searching for a home (acreage) with certain criteria, my husband and I (both retired) moved to Lampasas about 3½ years ago without knowing a soul in town. We later learned that my husband’s great-great-grandfather is listed on the 1870 census as owning the mercantile store on the town square plus several more lots around the square before and during the time the courthouse was built. His family moved on to New Mexico in 1872.
