WOULDN’T IT BE NICE?
Wouldn’t it be nice if each year was somehow packaged so that none of the bad stuff was carried over into the new year, and we indeed got a fresh start so we could try not to repeat last year’s mistakes. Sorry, unfortunately it isn’t that way, and we have to carry last year’s baggage into the new year. My wife often remarks about people moving to a new location to get a fresh start, she says “unfortunately wherever they go, they take themselves along”. So, that said the new year despite how we view it, is likely to be more of the same.
There is a bright side though, ringing in the new year causes us to reflect on our own shortcomings and gives us the incentive to improve. I don’t know about you, but some of my New Year’s resolutions made a profound impact on my life. New Year’s eve 1969-70, I went to a house party and got very, very drunk. To the point I was carried home in my own car as if it was an ambulance. I smoked so many cigarettes that night, along with everyone else, the next morning my throat was literally raw, I couldn’t walk from two sprained ankles from dancing while drunk. That night ended my smoking and drinking forever, 55 years ago today.
WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED OVER THE LAST YEAR, AND THE THREE YEARS BEFORE IT?
The answer to that question is things we didn’t think were possible.
2025 AND RENEWED HOPE FOR A BETTER AMERICA.
It’s time to purge the scum from the DOJ and the FBI and stop the political persecution of everyday citizens protecting their children from perverted maniac school systems. It’s time to rebuild our police departments and make our streets safe again. It’s time to bring back common sense government. Stop the B.S. regulations on anything that moves. Stop the “green agenda” before it bankrupts our nation.
I’m excited about the new possibilities coming our way. The Democrats almost destroyed our economy, Trump and team have got to start moving fast to get it back on track. Being involved in new construction, I can tell you it is moving at a snails pace right now, and a lot of industries are hurting. I’m confident Mr. Trump and team will be able to resuscitate the business world and get things moving again. Good things are on the horizon.

THE DAY THAT LIVES IN INFAMY, BUT LARGELY IGNORED BY TODAY’S AMERICANS.
According to Google, the Japanese attack force that decimated Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941, consisted of six aircraft carriers, two battleships, two heavy cruisers, one light cruiser, nine destroyers, eight tankers, 23 fleet submarines, and five midget submarines. The aircraft carriers were carrying 353 aircraft. Britannica claims Japan had 67 ships within 200 miles of Oahu.
In the world we live in today, with satellites surveilling virtually every square inch of the earth in real time, it’s hard to believe that a naval armada of such magnitude could go undetected and get close enough to attack a strategic US asset such as Pearl Harbor. Another fact hard to ignore was the fact that Japan had been on the march in the Pacific capturing island after island for ten years prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor. A small contingency of Americans, the famous “Flying Tigers” had been assisting the Chinese in pushing out the Japanese aggressors. I’m sure this activity was being closely watched by United States intelligence.
As in all major events such as this one, all sorts of theories abound. The political climate in the United States prior to our entry into the second world war was one of isolationism. Americans didn’t want any part of foreign wars. The theory held by some, is that Roosevelt knew it would be difficult is not impossible to enter the developing worldwide fray politically, so the decision was made to ignore Japan’s eminent attack on Pearl Harbor, knowing an attack on the American Navy would spark the anger of the American populace and erase any resistance to entering the war.
Whether or not that is true, I have provided a very condensed history of what followed Pearl Harbor. The Japanese did in fact awake a “Sleeping Giant.”

The entire story of how America went from a peaceful Agricultural/Industrial nation to full on war machine is nothing less than fascinating, and somewhat unbelievable. But that story embodies the true spirit of America. We saw that spirit rise again a few weeks ago on election day. America is back.
