The world’s only one man media empire
Whatever some may claim and why ever they may claim it, the road to prosperity isn’t paved by a single product. It’s paved by people making choices based on what they value most and what they can afford, but really, this shouldn’t be that difficult to explain. Last week, social media erupted once again over… Continue reading The $20 burrito, the woke right, the meaning of value, and the reality that personal choice produces better outcomes than government fiats
While many are shocked at the extent uncovered so far and at least some are expecting more to come, anyone who spent their formative years in the car business in the early 1990s like me is probably not surprised in the least. Though the mainstream media has done their level best to pretend it’s an… Continue reading The hidden or not-so-hidden fraudster in each of us and a few confessions from selling cars
President George W. Bush galvanized the country by throwing out the first pitch at the World Series in 2001. Contrary to the stunning lack of curiosity among the experts and the mainstream media, the visibility of a country’s leaders matter, especially in a time of war. On October 30, 2001, President George W. Bush galvanized… Continue reading Whether Iran’s new Supreme Leader is dead or alive, injured or healthy, in Iran or Russia, is perhaps the most important unanswered question of the war so far
For a savvy politician, the disconnect between what voters want on illegal immigration and how the President is addressing that want is an opportunity to agree with the principle while bemoaning the practice, but Democrats cannot bring themselves to take advantage. To a rational adult, two things can be true simultaneously. It is possible to… Continue reading Democrats are doubling down on illegal immigration to their own detriment because they are terrified of their own voters
Somehow, an actress is slammed as a white supremacist archetype of conservatism for appearing in an advertisement as celebrities frequently do while two obvious phonies, children of privilege who claim to be socialist revolutionaries, are the new face of the Democrat Party, redefining politics for an entire generation. Over the past six months, perhaps no… Continue reading Sydney Sweeney versus Zohran Mamdani 2040: The revolution will now be cosplayed
In today’s fast pace, media saturated, meme driven world, old school messaging and advertising will not be enough, especially in the face of historical trends. The public, most of the time, craves something different, a fearlessness and a boldness that the old guard is unwilling to deliver, and if Republicans cannot deliver it, they will… Continue reading The post-Trump world isn’t pretty for Republicans, but there’s a lesson from proud socialist and now NYC Mayor Elect Zohran Mamdani
The means to purchase a $350,00 vehicle are far in the future for me at least, but that’s not the point. The point is: When someone offers you the chance to drive one, you take it, but you’ll never get the chance if you aren’t in the game in the first place. As many of… Continue reading Driving an 800 horsepower Lamborghini in Manhattan and the importance of being there to live out your dreams
It’s almost inconceivable that he can keep this up much longer, but it’s a near miracle that we can still marvel at it right now while we can. If you don’t believe me, you don’t need to take my word for it any longer. My lovely wife finally agrees after a rousing performance at Camden… Continue reading Springsteen’s 75th birthday, and recent epic performances of “Darlington County” and “Youngstown” in Baltimore
A 73 year old rocker and his equally old band are still playing close-to three hour shows, doubling the length and intensity of acts half their age. We’re in uncharted territory and few things illustrate it better than a live performance of “Jungleland” at Madison Square Garden. Last Saturday, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street… Continue reading Bruce Springsteen has no equal or even an apt comparison
New York City had a drinking problem in 1895, or rather a legal problem concerning drinking because the sale of alcohol was prohibited on Sunday throughout the state. As President of the Police Board of Commissioners, Teddy Roosevelt chose to take on machine politics and the entire city by rigidly enforcing the prohibition as a… Continue reading Teddy Roosevelt, beer, and equality under the law
