Probation violator under arrest for murder.

Dumping a body in a church parking lot, now here’s a real gem of a human. Joseph P. Smith, arrested for the murder of Carlie Brucia was in violation of parole, and should have been in jail. With any luck, that will be the last breath of fee air he draws. The story by Vickie Chanchere from the... Sign in to see full entry.

Crapload news.

Cannibal eats victim, gets 12 years. First let me qualify this as a bona-fide real story. I read it in the Spokesman-Review, but I can’t find the article, so I will not name names. What happened is: A self-professed cannibal in Germany advertised on the internet for “someone to come over for... Sign in to see full entry.

Ok, it’s troubleshooter time.

Does your Internet Explorer get all nervous when you visit the BN? Mine kicks the modem off with great frequency, and if I do too much editing, it can lock up everything. The solution is to use Opera as my browser, which works good, except when I post, all the tools are gone, and I get this little... Sign in to see full entry.

What would you do?

I watched the thieves speed down my driveway, my motorcycle on its side in the back of their truck and I was helpless. They had gone into the garage 90 feet from my house and taken the bike while we were home. Things happen fast and I barely had time to run out and get a description of the truck....

The death penalty

As practiced in the United States, the death penalty is a joke. How can something be a deterrent when it is not applied in a consistent and timely manner? It is most assuredly a deterrent when a murderer is put to death. That person can never kill again. That is as it should be. When there is... Sign in to see full entry.

Lets start with abortion.

Abortion: No issue is as rife with emotion as abortion. Pro-Life. Pro-Choice. Tiny terms to define such a far reaching matter. Of course the fetus is alive, but at what point could it survive without medical intervention? For that matter pre-mature deliveries are surviving earlier and earlier, and...

What are we thinking?

Listen up politicians, the time of action is now! These days it seems that anyone running for office, or that has held office is writing a book that is meant to reveal something about them and their (mostly political) viewpoints. Celebrities have millions of people hanging on every word they utter,... Sign in to see full entry.

Fly me to the moon.

Americans wistfully think about the times of our adventurous journeys to the moon. That was a time that made us feel good. Screw how much it cost, we by God were the only country smart, rich and brave enough to accomplish the impossible. Is the present talk of going to the Moon an attempt to...
