IlliniGuys Sports Spectacular (Weekend of March 1, 2025) Heartland Newsfeed
As we've had to postpone our travels because of the pandemic, I believe a weekly dose of travel dreaming can be good medicine. Here's a reminder of the fun that awaits us in Europe at the other end of this crisis. For travelers with an interest in the evolution of Western culture, a stop at one of Europe's grand libraries is an unforgettable experience. Many of them offer the chance to connect with books and documents that changed the course […]
(Heartland Newsfeed) -- Just in the past few weeks, a Central Illinois newspaper that has been in existence since the mid-to-late nineteenth century has made a transition; a transition from traditional print to digital with a paywall. On May 28, 2020, the Shelbyville Daily Union, which has been in existence since May 1863, announced that they would make some changes. Among these changes was a significant shift from being a print publication to a digital publication. A paper that once […]
Here we go again: Fear of a “second wave” of COVID-19 infections is on a world tour. Naturally, the same “experts” who demanded a global lockdown in response to the “first wave” are saddling up for an encore. Their logic, faulty the first time around, is even more so the second. We shouldn’t, even for a moment, set aside the hideous and lethal immorality of placing hundreds of millions of human beings under de facto house arrest without accusing, let […]
Every four years without fail (and usually a little earlier in each quadrennial cycle), both “major” American political parties wind up and toss the same slow, fat pitch across the public’s plate: This is the most important presidential election of our lifetimes. Maybe even the most important presidential election EVER. You gotta vote. And this time, just like every other time, you can’t risk voting for anyone but Candidate X. A vote for third party or independent Candidate Y, the candidate you […]
(Heartland Newsfeed) -- As soon as the top of the Libertarian ticket was declared this past weekend online, trolls pretending to run news organizations went to the attack. This editorial is directed at the amateur shitfest known as The American Thinker. Some fake journalist by the name of Taylor Lewis did nothing more than attempt a hit piece on the 2020 Libertarian ticket of Jo Jorgensen and Spike Cohen in a "news" article on the site Tuesday. (I have no […]
When US President Donald Trump mentioned that he’s taking hydroxychloroquine, he immediately got an extra dose of flak from both the mainstream media and noted medical experts such as US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). Trump has been using the drug prophylactically versus COVID-19 — which he’s likely been exposed to via a personal valet — with the concurrence of his physician. Pelosi chided Trump for taking “something that has not been approved by the scientists” (it has been) and worried that he’s at […]
There’s a pivotal moment in the award-winning film, The Shawshank Redemption when the main character Andy Dufresne discovers there is evidence that could prove his innocence in the murder of his wife and her lover. Andy naively brings this to the attention of the corrupt, tyrannical warden Samuel Norton, who has relied upon Andy’s accounting acumen to skim and launder money from the prison. The warden declares the evidence he has found is false. He tells Andy he should forget about […]
Writing at Reason Magazine, Eric Boehm notes two trends revealed in data released by Apple and Foursquare. Trend One:Americans began reducing their outings and social interactions before, not because of, “shelter in place” orders issued by grandstanding, opportunistic politicians. Trend Two:Americans started coming back out and resuming something like normal life before, not because, those politicians started lifting those orders. In other words, with COVID-19 as with everything else, government policy is a trailing, rather than leading, indicator. Politicians don't start parades […]
House confinement offers several positives. Luckily, I’ve got a little home office, and it’s a place I can go to sleep after my morning coffee. On Monday, I had lots of time on my hands, so I took an online test to gauge my maturity level. It said I was “childish, obnoxious, and apathetic.” It said some other stuff, but I didn’t care. I’ve also started cleaning out the attic. I found my old report cards from high school, along […]
