Getting started in the Grinding 20’s - When Charity and I got married in 1997 we rented a 900sf apartment in the lower-middle class part of our town.

Don’t Debate. It’s a scam. - We are often tempted to debate those who hold ideas opposing ours. Don’t. It doesn’t work. You’ll not convince anyone.

Jordan B. Peterson is Controlled Opposition - Jordan B. Peterson is controlled opposition and doesn’t even know it. He was annointed for success because of his centrist, yet progressive views. Popular media portrayed him as conservative, and conservatives being dumb as mashed mice, they believed it. Here’s one of Dr. Peterson’s recent tweets. Liberals do not follow JBP, at least not for …
