A few friends have posted “Will you join me in committing to vote?” on my wall. As short as the question is, that invitation isn’t as simple as it seems. Alas, my answer simply cannot match the brevity of your complex question, so I’ll just use lots of words like … Continue reading
The Front Page of today’s Keene Sentinel features an article titled: Nudity laws: Change needed? This link will likely expire soon, but the article appears identical to one published yesterday in the Union Leader, which is archived at Free Keene, which also features comments from people close to the actual … Continue reading
In response to my previous entry, Tony pointed out my preposterous, if not confusing, statement: “I’m not shocked that fewer than half of the Denver MSA’s 2 Million residents attended this event.” (Note: MSA means Metropolitan Statistical Area) He replies, “This seems to say that although you were not shocked … Continue reading

The Associated Press published an article which reached major media outlets today. The Washington Post's version is the unedited article. Digg it here. Lots of good quotes made the article. Here’s mine: “Once upon a time America was unquestionably the freest nation in the world by a huge margin. That’s … Continue reading
The Free State Project returned to Freedom Fest last weekend in Las Vegas. The event was an impressive collection of speakers with several different tracks including a large gathering of Campaign For Liberty activists. I don’t know what the total attendance was, but I think over 1,500 attended Freedom Fest … Continue reading
The Free State Project's 2009 Porcupine Freedom Festival has come to a close. It was another record shattering event. The last incomplete data I had indicated right at 500 registrations.
