"We Got Him" REALLY?!!!

The Long Road ·

2025/09/12

I warned you. Be careful of the Charlie Kirk narrative the first 24-48 hours. Here we go--we got the "guy" as in singular. It is impossible to know this after a few hours. Let's go over some interesting points about what was missing and what was there that did not add up...the whole "solo actor" BS needs a rapid curtain call as in dropping down on the whole story.Photo: RJ @ Ozzfest/Black Sabbath

Something is really wrong about the Charlie Kirk killing...and it's beyond just that he should not have been killed. I smell a rat--or a total rat infestation in the multiple levels of corruption at play in the drama house.Music: "Star Spangled Banner" by Stanley Jay Tucker

The Long Road ·

2025/09/11

A brief book review of the 2018 book by Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt entitled, "THE CODDLING OF THE AMERICAN MIND: HOW GOOD INTENTIONS AND BAD IDEAS ARE SETTING UP A GENERATION FOR FAILURE."I go over key points cited for creating witch hunts and read over a few of the book reviews by people from various social and political standings. It's a challenging read but an important one for our current times, and it has a lot to do with Charlie Kirk's mission to speak openly on American colleges and

The Long Road ·

I've been teaching a "pre-archery" lesson this week in order for my students to start learning how to both SEE line and FEEL line.

Can You Even Walk?

The Long Road ·

2025/09/04

After decades in health and fitness, in both corporate and educational settings, nearly everyone I have ever worked with has some sort of issue with their walking gait. There is almost always an imbalance or biomechanical issue that is often not even realized by the person I am seeing. Here on some thoughts "again" on the importance of a gliding gait that saves you energy throughout the days and decades.Watch my "Gliding Gait" walking video for more information.Photo Credit: New Hampshire Female

Send Troops to Chicago?

The Long Road ·

2025/09/03

As of 9.3.25, it looks like the National Guard will likely be sent into Chicago to deal with the out-of-control violence plaguing the streets and communities, but will it really make a difference? What does history say? What is the history of gang violence in Chicago? History has some real wisdom here. Hang on while I skim the surface on short-term and long-term solutions plus some Chicago-specific history too.Listen to my previous episode III on "The History of Juvenile Delinquency in Chicago"Photo

We often think of "HARD LABOR" in current American culture as a punishment sentence for bad behavior; however, the task of undertaking hard physical labor would actually decrease the amount of bad behavior. Here are a few thoughts on getting dirty, sweating, and using your whole body to build something instead of burning stuff down.Photo Credit: "Trail Building" by Ron Jones*Music Credit: @mattbradfordmusic

AI Arguing

The Long Road ·

2025/08/30

I don't know why it took me so long to realize this, but it occured to me that many of the far left liberals who come after me in social media were "AI Arguing" meaning just cutting and pasting AI-generated verbiage into comment boxes...or "paraphrasing" (i.e. plagarizing). I refuse to argue with AI idiots who are propagandized by the far left technocrats. This whole machine first philosophy is FATALLY flawed. Music Credit: @mattbradfordmusic
