First Posted 23-Apr-2015 Yeah. Truth. Kind of a no brainer, right? I mean, truth is fact, yes? Isn’t natural law self-evident? For the guy that prompted this post, natural law is beyond debate. Heh. He said that to a story-teller. He said that to me, who spins tales of emperorsContinue Reading

I’m going to bite that hand. In this space, it’s what I do. I watched my Mom approve welfare for her clients as I grew up. I know the social safety net exists. I’ve benefited from it over almost four decades. Over 10 years ago or so I came toContinue Reading

First Posted 14-May-2015 I was asked if I’m being somehow secretly self-revealing in the use of the name SumYung HotTea and the phrase “horizontal bop”. As much as I have written about how I really don’t think it’d work out for she and I, this writer is suspected of desiringContinue Reading
