Doctor Tom's Rant

I think pro-gun rights people should  spread the rumor among the teenager crowds that many people are now pushing for laws to make it illegal for anyone under the age of 19 or 21 from having any access to social media because of the epidemic of teen suicide due to "cyber-bullying". Of course, it's not true, but it gets them all angered that they wouldn't be able to access social media because some "bad kids" use it to cyber bully.   Then we tell them that the movie "13 Reasons" really put this issue out in the spot light, and now people are motivated to finally do something to save teen lives. After all, there are many more suicides than killings from shooters in schools.

Appreciating what the man is doing doesn’t mean we worship the salty sailor or even desire to be like the salty sailor. It doesn’t even mean God admires the salty sailor. Maybe He just knows he’s necessary for such a time as this. I believe with all my heart that God placed that salty sailor in the

Has anyone ever wondered why so many liberals seek academia and higher education as a profession? Probably because they are allowed to do so because the knowledgeable, rational, conservative thinking people opt to go into business rather than seek refuge in liberal arts, humanities and fields of gender and ethnic studies and then indoctrinate their politically correct leftist’s ideas and oppose the conservative right's rather than teach. "People get angry at what they don’t understand, and an all-progressive education ensures that they  don’t  understand.  The conservative hears the progressive’s latest demands and says, “I can see how you might come to that conclusion, but I think you’ve overlooked the following…” In contrast, the progressive hears the conservative and thinks, “I have  no idea  why you would believe that. You’re probably a racist.” Matthew Blackwell

#1 I very quietly confided to my best friend that I was having an affair. She turned to me and asked, "Are you having it catered?" And that, my friend, is the sad definition of "OLD". #2 Just before the funeral services, the undertaker came up to the very elderly widow and asked, "How old was your husband?" "98," she replied: "Two years older than me" "So you're 96," the undertaker commented. She responded, "Hardly worth going home, is it?" #3 Reporters interviewing a 104-year-old woman: "And what do you think is the best thing about being 104?" the reporter asked. She simply replied, "No peer pressure." #4 I've sure gotten old!   I have outlived my feet and my teeth, I've had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement, New knees, fought prostate cancer an
