Over the weekend I got in touch with some friends of mine that I knew had expertise that I was interested in having showcased on the site.\u00a0 One fellow is a gun guy and by this I mean that he is both a gun enthusiast and also a staunch Second Amendment partisan.\u00a0 I told him I’m interested in articles on both topics.\u00a0 I think there’s broad interest for these kind of articles.\u00a0 So hopefully he’ll have the time to contribute a post or two on these subjects.<\/p>\n
The other guy, among many other interests, is a student of the theory of technological innovation.\u00a0 He’s interested in what kinds of corporate enterprises produce value like replacing a typewriter with a word processor and what kinds merely suck the life out of an industry like when Hollywood rolls out “Star Wars MCMXXXIX – The Search for Transgender Ewok Wokeness.”\u00a0 He has very definite opinions and some of them seem counter intuitive to me but I find this stuff useful when I try to imagine how I would want to see the US government incentivize the re-industrialization\u00a0 of America.<\/p>\n
So these two guys will write the stuff they know about and since these aren’t my strong suits it will add more breadth to the site.<\/p>\n
And by the same token if any of you folks out there are interested in contributing to the site either on a one off basis or more regularly then just let me know either in a comment or by e-mail to orionscoldfire(at)charter(dot)net<\/strong> and I’d love to hear your ideas and what you want to share.<\/p>\n As we head for August and inch closer to the fall campaign season we will all be bombarded with propaganda by both sides.\u00a0 But I expect the Dems to reach ludicrous levels of untruth.\u00a0 I fully expect to see a commercial claiming that President Trump is a space alien and that he eats puppies for breakfast.\u00a0 I fully intend to intend to revel in their mendacity and am toying with the idea of having “Stupid Democrat Ad of the Week” or something like that.\u00a0 But what is more important, I’m hoping to see the President’s campaign focus on the rioting and associated chaos and relentlessly paint the Democrats and Joe Biden with the guilt for what they have tolerated and even sponsored.\u00a0 It seems to me that hammering that home should be all that is needed to give the sane fraction of the voting public what it needs to disqualify the Dems from running this country.\u00a0 Whether that sane fraction has the votes or not to put us over the top is the question of the hour.<\/p>\n So stay tuned.\u00a0 There should be lots of good stuff, political and cultural, coming down the pike.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Over the weekend I got in touch with some friends of mine that I knew had expertise that I was interested in having showcased on<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,1489,818,6],"tags":[1799,1596,157,580],"class_list":["post-11550","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-current-events","category-guest-contributors","category-ocf","category-trump","tag-2020-election","tag-guest-contributors","tag-ocf","tag-ocf-update"],"yoast_head":"\n
