A few days ago, I was starting to get a wee bit nervous about not seeing the EMAIL from the NC Secretary of State directing me to make another trip downtown to the Register of Deeds office to re-take the two oaths to be commissioned to do electronic notarial acts. After all, I had actually attended the class and passed the examination above the required grade of 80%. Though yes, I was more than a…

Almost immediately after the news broke of yet *ANOTHER* mass-shooting event, this time in Louisville KY by a bank employee that was about to be terminated and decided he was going to be the terminator instead, we got this tweet from one of the usual suspects in the "thoughts and prayers" squad. Yep, I get it that this latest atrocity is in the Senate Minority Turtle's backyard and I would hope that deep down in…

“If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.” Obi-Wan Kenobi Yesterday, those of us in North Carolina saw our General Assembly devolve into an actual super-majority with the switch of party by Rep Tricia Cotham from the Democrats to the Republicans which now gives them the ability to override Governor Cooper's veto at will. To be fair, this is not as much of a change in how the…

Well, it's official. Senator Berger and Representative Moore have gotten their greatest reward from the hyperpartisan gerrymandering that has been to the Supreme Court twice only to fall on deaf ears and North Carolina's voters being left to fend for themselves. With the defection of Mecklenburg County's Representative Tricia Cotham who was elected as a Democrat in the 112th District by double-digits to the Republicans, they now have the outright super-majority in the NC House…

After watching the relative non-event of former President Trump's indictment and the subsequent press conference by New York County District Attorney Alvin Bragg, I'll confess that I had a rather impertinent thought when I came across an article from one of the local TV news sites showing that the signs announcing you've arrived at my hometown are already being dismantled. So far I've resisted the urge to weigh in with my take on the looming…
