As of today, I’ve walked 92 miles. On my journey, this has me exiting the West Virginia Panhandle and trekking deep into “Wrong Turn” territory. During the week, I passed through Slanesville, West Virginia. Since its founding in the late 18th century, the town has been known as Cross Roads, Slains Cross Roads, Slanes Cross [...]

Alas, last evening I had an attack of night terrors. I awoke in a cold sweat because I dream’t that Nancy Pelosi is third in the line of succession to the presidency. I fell out of bed and began heavily drinking when I realized that I hadn’t had a nightmare. Nancy Pelosi gets the job [...]

Today the President is holding something called a fiscal responsibility summit at the White House. Apparently crafting a fiscally responsible policy involves whining about the previous administration’s budget accounting. Share on Facebook

I have stumbled upon the answer to one of the great mysteries of life: what is the significance of the Terminator movies? After watching Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, I’ve found the answer. The tales of the Terminator are a Buddhist cautionary tale about the illusion of our current reality and the never ending [...]

The Journeys of NostraSeamus – 2/21/2009

This week’s walking has taken me 59 miles from home. One will notice a lot of north/south travel along this route. This is the only route one can take to get over Cacapon Mountain, which runs sixteen miles from Bloomery, WV to the Potomac. The mountain is part of the Appalachian chain of mountains and [...]

Eric Holder is far and away this week’s biggest idiot. But, Barry, baby, I can’t believe you actually thanked foreign nationals for coming south of the border and campaigning for you. Yes, its legal. But to actually thank other country’s citizens for helping you get elected?? Dummy. Share on Facebook

I really can’t tell what I’m watching here, the Cabinet of the President of the United States of America or Randall McMurphy’s fishing trip. Tax-cheats, retreads, socialists and now a genuine, died-in-the-wool idiot in the person of our Attorney General, Eric Holder. Share on Facebook

Imperfect: The Chaffing of the Unmentionables

I’m a creature of routine. What works for me is getting up at more or less the same time every morning and going through the same ritual: getting dressed, brushing teeth, checking NOAA for the weather, drinking a Propel and hitting the pavement. This has been both a strength and a weakness. On one hand [...]

And so today, President Obama signs the 787 billion dollar stimulus package. The President’s PR machine will make this look like a “win” for Obama, but really, its a sad day for the country. We have a stimulus bill that depends heavily on infrastructure spending. In the early 90’s the Japanese real estate market imploded, [...]
