THE BEGINNING – Big Stone Gap, VA This is stage one of my journey through the time on this earth! It began when I was 18 months old in a small Southwest Virginia town – – –
GERMANY – I spent over two years in Germany while serving in the U.S. Army in the late ’50s. During that time I visited a number of European countries and cities.
TWENTY YEARS IN ERWIN, TN – Right before my marriage, I moved to Erwin, TN, about 70 miles from my VA hometown. I was employed as Chief Engineer of a radio station there.
THE MIGRATION TO FLORIDA – I left Erwin, TN to accept a “temporary” job in television in Cocoa, FL. That was over 30 years ago!

“Made in Japan” was a moniker that was attached to cheap, non-dependable merchandise made in Japan soon after the end of World War II. I can remember that metal items, such as tools, tin cans and the like were labeled at “made from discarded G.I. beer cans”. And, probably that was a fairly accurate evaluation for the time.

For three years we have seen some rather unusual and questionable activity in the Federal Government, mainly within the Executive Branch, that makes us wonder how long it will take before we become a fully fitted-out police state!
First, we saw the installation of “Czars” (see my article “American Czars – ” from November 2010) – Cabinet appointees surreptitiously installed by Obama to circumvent the requirement that Cabinet nominees be vetted and confirmed by the Senate.
