Its Over.

No. 1,567

My Bucket List Starts in Philadelphia!

No. 1,312 I just learned about the Museum of the American Revolution, opening April 19 in Philadelphia and I want to go there as soon as possible. I still haven’t made it to the National Constitution Center and the Franklin — I need to go there too.

Those Pesky Ideas Whose Time Has Come.

The Supreme Court is hearing arguments on same sex marriage, legal arguments that wouldn’t have been given a long shot chance of acceptance not very long ago.

The Most Outstanding Presidential Resume Ever.

No. 865 What President of the United States had perhaps the most outstanding resume? No, not Obama — not even close. George H. W.
