Posted on December 3, 2016 by Robert Ringer

A couple of years ago I gave a speech in the Cayman Islands and my son accompanied me on the trip. On the day of our arrival, we had lunch at the hotel’s outside café, and it was especially enjoyable because our waitress was an intelligent, pretty young lady with an engaging personality. She introduced […]

Trump Head Fake or Con Job on His Supporters?

Posted on November 29, 2016 by Robert Ringer

Donald Trump’s supporters were feeling giddy with excitement right after his electrifying win over the Face of Evil, which well they should have.  After all, with their support, he succeeded in depriving Barack Obama of a third term via a Hillary presidency. But in less than two weeks, Trump managed to raise the eyebrows of […]

Many everyday citizens are perplexed as to why the Radical Left is resorting to violence to protest the outcome of a democratically held election. And I’m perplexed as to why anyone would not understand why the Radical Left is resorting to violence to protest the outcome of a democratically held election. It’s not really all […]

The one bad thing that came out of this most historic of all elections is that, sadly, it looks like there will be no Trump TV after all. But at least the Face of Evil proved me right about her never becoming president of the United States, though I admit I never thought she would […]

Finally!

finally

So it’s all come down to this. After a year-and-a-half of nonstop lies, childish name-calling, shameless race-baiting, and scandals so commonplace that most people have become immune to the rampant criminal activity in Washington, today is the day patriotic citizens march dutifully to the polls, desperately wanting to believe that their vote will help turn […]

Thinking and Consequences

Posted on November 1, 2016 by Robert Ringer

I have often been asked if thinking can be considered a form of action.  The short answer is yes.  To employ Aristotelian logic, since thoughts have consequences, we can reasonably conclude that thoughts are actions. But the whole notion of thinking as a form of action puts us on that proverbial slippery slope.  Like physical […]

I’m back again after a month of reflection, and, not surprisingly, nothing much has changed in the world of politics. I feel as though someone left the projector running while I took a break, and when I returned, the same movie was still playing. Which was not surprising, because many years ago I shut politics […]

Eminent Domain and Donald Trump

Posted on September 20, 2016 by Robert Ringer

One of a handful issues I have with Donald Trump is his appetite for eminent domain. Whenever you watch a tear-jerking eminent-domain story on television, it serves as a grim reminder that we are not, by any stretch of the imagination, totally free. So now that an eminent domain practitioner is about to become president […]

The next time you find yourself anxious or distressed about a business or personal situation, you’ll find it to be enormously helpful to think about a reality of life that seems to escape people who are constantly stressed: things change! This reality began to hit home with me in the late seventies, following a meeting […]

Making the Time

Posted on September 13, 2016 by Robert Ringer

time

In an interview I did some years ago with Hugh Downs, I asked him how he finds the time to get so much accomplished. He explained that people who complain about not being able to find the time to do things they say are important to them are approaching the issue with the wrong mind-set. […]
