Victorian Architecture
Bought a book on Victorian architecture in the used book store the other day. So interesting to put a name to architectural features.
The Victorians were very big on ornamentation, even bold decoration, to the point of pure whimsy (the circular tower structure with a “witch’s cap” on top, for instance). Their architecture, therefore, has so much more character than the utilitarian, 20th-century architecture that superseded it.
Do you know what a finial is? A bay window? Everyone know what a cornice is, no?
Three types of architecture worth exploring, in my opinion: Victorian, Queen Anne, and Gingerbread.
Political Impeachment
Brazil carried out a purely political impeachment of their president, and it ripped the country apart.
You may have a civil war by Trump’s supporters if he gets impeached for no reason.
Ka’Chava
The ingredients are out of this world health-promoting.
If you are at all interested in radically good nutrition, check out the ingredient list in their product.
Thoreau
Reading Thoreau’s The Maine Woods.
I noticed in the list of his writings that he also wrote a book with the title “Cape Cod”. Think I’ll see if the local library has a copy.
Boycott China
If you are pro America, don’t buy anything made in China — nothing. Send a message by your own personal actions. Read the label and if it says “Made in China,” don’t buy that product, even if it is cheaper and well made.
Boycott China not just for their predatory trade practices, but also for their totalitarian, undemocratic, and repressive politics. Vote with your wallet.
It’s Not Impeachment
It’s an attempted coup by the Democratic Party and the deep state. Trump’s only “crime” was that he was elected.
Standards
Do you.
Solar Panels and Taxes
The Federal Government should boost the tax credit homeowners get for installing solar panels — a large enough tax break so that no one would dispute the benefit of installing them. The entire cost of installing the solar panel system should be deductible, in my opinion, because the percentage of houses with solar panels is still nowhere near where it should be.
