FOCUS: The courtrooms are where the nation’s future rests

By Norman Baggs  |  The minute-by-minute chaos besieging the foundations of our national government put us all in the position of the “boy who cried wolf,”  fully aware that if we respond to every feat of inanity our voices of protest will become irrelevant.

BRACK: Here’s another example of us having too much government

By Elliott Brack | FEB. 11, 2020  | We’ve got too much government.  People in both political camps can agree on this.  It’s the way you go about governing that divides us. The question is where you put your emphasis on what government should do.

HOUSTON: Argument for Apple master key is a Trojan horse

HOUSTON: Argument for Apple master key is a Trojan horse

By Debra Houston | A couple years ago, I switched from a personal computer to an Apple iMac. Viruses ravaged my PC like so many Visigoths crashing down on the Roman Empire. Despite antivirus debuggers, brute malware, and lofty firewalls, I’d routinely visit the Geek Doc and plunk down a hundred plus dollars to sweep out the invaders. Those hundreds added up. I could’ve bought a new computer with what I’d spent on fixing one PC.
