Too many chiefs, and not enough Indians Small to large in stature, of all homo-sapiens.  Who will be the leader, who speaks for many, Or whose self-interest, speaks for few, if anything. Who will be in charge, of well-intentioned power, Or lives for the moment, of their own finest hour.

No self-imposed leader of one, or greater multitude, Can…[Read more]

In times past, I have heard the term “Lost Vegas”, but as I see it, because of what Vegas recently lost, it has found something far greater …  its humility.  This is for you Las  Vegas Strong.
When it is spoken of the place, they call the City of Sin,

1.  the clock in your car(s)

2.  the clock on your drip system

3.  the clock on your thermostat(s) for heating and cooling in your…[Read more]

This is an editorial and my opinion on what has transpired over the eleven plus years that I have lived in Sun City Anthem, however, there is growing support from other homeowners that feel the same way as I do and are verbal about it.
