Gun rights group slams Delaware State Fair ban on firearms: ‘blatant insult’
“The Delaware State Fair is now officially anti-gun,” an email blast recently sent to members of the Delaware State Sportsmen’s Association (DSSA) proclaims. The notice sounds off against a policy that prohibits patrons, vendors, exhibitors, volunteers and employees from carrying firearms at the fair from July 20-29, 2023.
The Delaware State Fair website states that “weapons of any kind or objects that appear to be weapons are prohibited and may not be brought onto the fairgrounds.”
Song of the Day 7/18: Judas Priest, “Breaking the Law”

Chris Murphy (Conn.) […]
Dem Party primaries are good, except the ones I don’t like. They are bad.
I don’t think people should get out of the way for other people. Since the Democratic Party is the only remaining statewide party in Delaware, the primary IS the election. So have it out. Tell us the “democratic approach” to holding the office you want. Get your people fired up.
Just don’t get into tearing down other candidates. Those are the ones I don’t like.
Song of the Day 7/17: Mr. Big, “To Be With You”
Most of the world considers Mr. Big a one-hit wonder. The Los Angeles-based glam-metal band, active through the ’90s, topped the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks in 1991 with an acoustic power ballad, “To Be With You.” The song also reached No. 1 in 14 other countries, notably including Japan. “To Be With You” […]

Saudis Bled Arizona’s Aquifers Dry? Legally? It appears so: BUTLER VALLEY, Ariz. — A megadrought has seared Arizona, stressing its rivers and reservoirs and reducing water to a trickle in the homes of farmworkers near this desert valley. But green fields of alfalfa stretch across thousands of acres of the desert land, shimmering in the […]

Burning the Planet to Ashes is Good for the Economy
I guess we’ve come to that collective conclusion, because the opposite (Stopping the Planet from Burning to Ashes is Bad for the Economy) seems to hold sway among policy makers.
