JFK Delivered His Famous Inaugural 60 Years Ago: 'Ask Not What Your Country Can Do for You' By Randy DeSoto Published January 19, 2021 at 6:43pm In the pantheon of inaugural addresses, few, if any, shine brighter than President John Kennedy’s delivered on Jan. 20, 1961. Most presidential inaugural remarks, in fact most political speeches, are forgettable. Looking back over two-plus centuries of inaugurals, really only a few stick out: George Washington’s first inaugural, mainly because he was the nation’s first president; Abraham Lincoln’s first and second inaugurals, offered as America faced and neared the end of a devastating Civil War; and Franklin ...

Christmas on the ranch..... 'Twas the night before Christmas & out on the ranch The pond was froze over & so was the branch. The snow was piled up belly-deep to a mule. The kids were all home on vacation from school, And happier young folks you never did see- Just all sprawled around a-watchin' TV. Then suddenly, some time around 8 o'clock, There came a surprise that gave them a shock! The power went off, the TV went dead! When Grandpa came in from out in the shed With an armload of wood, the house was all dark. "Just what I expected," they heard him remark "Them power line wires must be down from the snow.

A LOOK INTO THE TRAGEDY AT THE ROLLING STONES' ALTAMONT CONCERT Wikimedia Commons BY NICHOLAS VRCHOTICKY/NOV. 15, 2020 1:01 AM EST The Rolling Stones are a sight to see, and they were even more during their heyday, which the rockers from England hit during the late '60s. You can still catch a show sometime in the near future to hear Mick Jagger groove and buy up all of your authentic Rolling Stones mouth merch since they have a tour lined up, set to go after the pandemic-related postponement. But, you might think twice about catching a Stones show after you learn the tragic history of the Rolling Stones' Altamont concert. The Rolling Stones' Altamont concert was ...

If you thought comedy was dead because of woke hysteria, fear no longer. Hollywood has come to the rescue. The Academy—a misnomer if there ever was one—has decreed that a movie can no longer be eligible for an Academy Award unless it meets certain criteria. A group of greedy lowlifes will now decide what’s good for us to view, but such are the joys of La La Land nowadays. (Surely you’ve read about it: In order to be considered for prizes, movies have to include blacks, homosexuals, lesbians, transsexuals, queers, and the disabled, the latter preferably of mixed race.) Ticking all the boxes while casting a movie will now also come under Oscar consideration, while the ...
