Welcome back to the Scuttlebutt.   Here, have something a little stronger, because “here we go again”.   Back when I was practicing killing a commie for mommy stuff, we had a little thing called the Tanker wars. 1987-1988.  It was the first time Iran decided that the gulf was their pond. Well, after all, most of the world ...

  My publisher, upon reading my last piece, asked me "A quick question for you sir...   do you ever consider or give credence to those who will say incidents like this one are a false flag....  intended to launch the US into a war.   Or is that more conspiracy theory stuff?"   I typed out my response ...

With every new chapter in my adulthood, it seems that each year is starting to try to one-up the last, in the amount and severity of curveballs life can unexpectedly chuck at me. I have been through unimaginable situations that I was literally speechless in, thinking, “I cannot wrap my head about this actually being ...

  Welcome back to the Scuttlebutt.   Here’s a cuppa, pull up a chair.  Back in October of last year, I ran a piece on “chicken-of-the sea”, because China played that particular game with us.     In case you don’t remember Chicken-of-the-sea, that’s much like the school game of chicken we used to play, as teenagers with our cars… ...

  Welcome back to the Scuttlebutt.  It’s the morning of 4 July 4, 2018 as I write this.  I have a cup of coffee at my left hand. Please join me in some, or if it’s later in the day, feel free to have something stronger if you’ve a mind.   Back nearly 250 years ago, one of ...

  Welcome back to the Scuttlebutt.   On any other weekly chat, we would talk about the cowardly excuse for a cop that’s finally been charged for the mass shooting there. Or the rather interesting case about to be heard by the SCOTUS on suppressors, and whether the BATFE is about to get it broken off inside.   But today ...
