MORE HUMOR
Legendary for his clever gibes, bits of wisdom, and his ability to laugh at himself, our 40th president, Ronald Reagan endeared himself to the public from the moment he entered the political arena. Few presidents have been so frequently quoted on their one-liners or ready comebacks. Here's one from his early years - his first trip ever to Chicago:
I couldn't afford cabs and I was afraid of the damn buses - as a matter of fact, the city itself scared the bejesus out of me. Everybody seemed to know where they were going and what they were doing, and I could get lost just looking for a men's room.
Welcome
I'm glad you stopped by. You'll be able to read my articles, columns and essays and that will give you, for whatever it's worth, an idea of what I think about different issues of the day.
You'll also be able to learn about my books and find out how to order them either for yourself or as gifts for others. I am told that many consider them excellent gift items, for anniversaries, birthdays, and Christmas.
And it will introduce you to my work as an investigator, and explain how I might be of services to your company, your clients or to you personally.
So if you're looking for some boffo writing on politics, social issues of the day, and some interesting religious stuff, all from a conservative viewpoint and updated regularly, you have come to the right place. Send me an email message, sign my guestbook, or visit the About Tony page for more information.
SOME HUMOR:
W. Burt Prelutsky is an accomplished, well-rounded Hollywood writer and author. For TV, he has written episodes of Dragnet, McMillan & Wife, Mary Tylor Moore, Rhoda, Bob Newhart, and Diagnosis Murder. His books include The Secret of Their Success: Interviews with Legends and Luminaries, and Conservatives Are from Mars (Liberals Are from San Francisco): A Hollywood Rightwinger Comes Out of the Closet.
In the latter book, he wrote at page 75:
"Most of the conservatives I know, including myself, started out somewhere else on the political spectrum, and evolved through time and knowledge and experience. I personally do not know of a single case of an individual evolving in the other direction.
"I will leave it to the Darwinists to make of that what they will."
QUOTABLE QUOTES:
You can say what you want about the South, but you never hear of anyone retiring and moving North.
