NOTICE: As many of our regular readers and listeners know – this past year+ has been a veritable nightmare for us. From personal health related issues, to the insanity of the political foilbles (cornholes) of this nation and the nightmares which we have had to face with each of our four (or as two domain managers have stated – five) websites.

For starters – there are only four actual websites. The 5th will be eliminated soon (which is quite interesting, because it hasn’t existed in some years…). From that point on – we will begin to correct the existing errors within a weeks time.

We have fought the elimination of 20 year old emails (Federal Observer – which MAY be going through a MAJOR overhaul), an ongoing fight to establish new ones for DrKelley.net and SierraMadrePreciousMetals, and apparent issues to be able to utilize [email protected] (which possibly few of our readers seem to be aware of).

I have done this for far too many years and am sick and tired of what appears to be attempts to just flat shut us down. It does not help that two of the largest supposedly “most professional” domain hosts in the country have become the greediest, poor service operations that I have ever dealt with in all of these years – GoSlammy and BlueWhore.

So just stick with us a bit longer as we endeavor to get all of this overhauled.

Our 22 year old email address, [email protected] has been suspended by the Scumbags at Google – which apparently has changed their entire policy – because they want me to now PAY for the right to use their new system – a system that is now fully based on scamming folks out of money!

Until further notice, please use [email protected] in order to reach us

I’ll not take the time this day to dissect and discuss all of the nuances and stories about what happened September 11, 2001. I know where I was and what I was doing – as most people do.

There are many questions and much evidence out there to raise questions about the real story behind the tragedy… and THAT is my point – no matter how you address the issue – it was a tragedy. People lost their lives and maybe in some respects – we lost our country.

But THIS is how I choose to honor that day today…

I’ll see you at Sundown,

As some of you are aware, today has been a difficult day for my family and I, as we lost our son, our brother, uncle and a father one year ago today.

I thank my friend Gwyn Ruddy for sharing this with us. ~ Editor

“Today was a Difficult Day,” said Pooh.

There was a pause.

“Do you want to talk about it?” asked Piglet.

“No,” said Pooh after a bit. “No, I don’t think I do.”

“That’s okay,” said Piglet, and he came and sat beside his friend.

“What are you doing?” asked Pooh.

“Nothing, really,” said Piglet. “Only, I know what Difficult Days are like. I quite often don’t feel like talking about it on my Difficult Days either.

“But goodness,” continued Piglet, “Difficult Days are so much easier when you know you’ve got someone there for you. And I’ll always be here for you, Pooh.”

And as Pooh sat there, working through in his head his Difficult Day, while the solid, reliable Piglet sat next to him quietly, swinging his little legs… he thought that his best friend had never been more right.”

Nichelle Nichols, the trailblazing “Star Trek” actress who played Lieutenant Uhura and shared one of the first interracial kisses on prime-time TV, has died, according to her family. She was 89 years old.

What I am doing this night is a total rarity – in fact – I have never done it before.

On my evening broadcast of July 21, 2022 – I did what I am known for, shared one of the most well researched commentaries from a well-known writer who I have never met nor spoken with – but his commentary was so spot-on – that I chose to make it the base for my program this night – but it was not to be the end of my program.

As you will hear, I received a letter nearly two weeks ago from a listener, but as I began to read it, I was taken aback and chose to put it back in the envelope – until two nights ago and read this two-page letter in it’s entirety – and it hit me hard – but not for some of the things that were said, which could have been taken the wrong way – but for the letter in it’s completeness – and then I decided to share said letter with my audience with some closing remarks.

Please LISTEN to the complete program, and lessons shall be learned – and then SHARE this link for this column with family, friends and all who will listen and read. (CLICK ON the title)

The Death of Privacy and a letter of promise…

Without Apology I am,

Eddie: “I have no memory of ever being bit by any kind of bee.”

Slim: [interjecting] “Were you?”

Over the past year as I have completed a nearly eleven month long project of home restoration, I began to note something I had never witnessed before – not to the degree I have seen now – dead bees laying on the ground. Sometimes there is just one, sometimes several – and even on one occasion – several dozen. Continue reading →

The man shows and sings more emotion in his words as he ages. I will still be away for a few more days, but this new song by Tom Jones says volumes about how I am feeling these days. ~ Jeffrey

My Sunday morning has been busy putting the following together. It has also been a superb follow up to my broadcast from this past Wednesday night. Didn’t hear it? Here you go! (Primum Non-Nocere – First, Do No Harm, April 20, 2022)

And the story will continue… ~ Ed.

Having had the “services” of Dr. Edward Evans, M.D. on the night of September 2 or early September 3, 2021 due to what I would refer to as a minor heart attack – and then two subsequent scheduled appointments at his office – the attached bill is an insult – for several reasons.

To the best of my knowledge, Dr. Evans could not be bothered to do a follow up in my hospital room during the next several days – and yet Banner Estrella Medical Center recommends that I make contact and make an appointment within the following seven days or so?

Before the heart surgery (where two stints were put in me) Dr. Evans also had a catheter installed in me – for alleged reasons that I had urinary issues. (Continue…)

These past few days have been trying and very difficult – our readers are not being ignored. It will be awhile before we have the ability to begin posting again – at a very slow pace.

On Thursday morning I did not fall asleep until a short-bit after 3:00 a.m. only to be awoken at 4:25 by my wife to inform me that our Son had passed away. My Son Mark would have been 38 in two weeks. Having spent the weekend emptying out the home he lived in – it became more difficult for me by the hour as too many great memories came flooding back – but it still has not hit me that way it shall… Continue reading →

Early in June of this year, I received a link to an article from an old and very dear friend. Not only did I choose to publish the column – with her forward and introduction, but I chose to concentrate my daily program, The Edge of Darkness to that which she had submitted.

I sent her an email thanking her profusely for all that she has continued to do, and some days later received the following… Continue reading →

The Darkness at the Crucifixion (Gustave Doré)

From the Publisher’s personal collection of the Works of Gustave Doré.

NOTE: Be patient… I am working on it. It will be slow, but I just cannot walk away ’til the Good Lord decides that he has need for me elsewhere. Thank you to all of our readers who have sent emails and left comments below. ~ J.B.

As of this moment – on this day – I have had enough.

Am I giving up? I do not know at this point. I am fed up with it all. 26 years on the air – and for WHAT?

Nearly 20 years with this website – and for WHAT? Apparently – not one damned thing!

All posts are still in my possession – and may pop up again in a day or so – or maybe a bit longer. But I need a break from ALL of this.

I am leaving a few posts on this site for now, one written by my dear friend and mentor – Granny. READ her words – and answer the same questions for and about yourself.
