El Paso: I love El Paso. It’s a place where you can breath because of the vast openness of the desert, where the stars are as big as ripe apples and you feel that you can just reach out and pluck one from the sky. I see the beauty that surrounds this border town, but […]

Maya Muses: A new Canadian law, the April 17 amendment to Canada’s Citizenship Act, was passed and now there are several hundred thousand people around the world who may have gone to bed Thursday night as a citizen of some other country only to have awoken as a Canadian citizen and not even know it!

Yes! French Women Do Get Fat!
April 10th, 2009 · By Lynn
Maya Muses: Billy over at Billy’s Lines of Gibberish wrote an interesting piece about why French people manage to stay thin despite all the rich food they eat and it reminded me of an article I wrote two years ago when everyone was talking about the book, French Women Don’t Get Fat by Mireille Guiliano, so I decided […]

It was announced today that Canada will be giving about $3.3 billion dollars to the American Automobile Industry to help in America’s struggling economy!

Why Do So Many Americans Find Socialism A Dirty Word?
October 20th, 2008 · By Lynn
Wealthy Americans find socialism a dirty word because socialism means, taking from the rich and giving to the poor. Capitalism means, every man for himself. That’s it in a nutshell!
So why is it that the rest of America finds socialism to be a dirty word? Because wealthy Americans want people to believe that it is just two […]

Is The Party Over?
August 5th, 2008 · By Lynn
With both McCain and Obama talking about the price of gas, oil, off shore drilling, energy conservation, etc., Americans realize that the party may soon be over and life as we once knew it can no longer be maintained!

Politicians in Mayaland
May 8th, 2008 · By Lynn
If history has told us anything, it’s that all politicians will say anything to get elected! Promises are made and once elected, those promises go out the window!

April 30th, 2008 · By Lynn
Something is definitely wrong when all the news is about a young teenage girl who had photographs taken showing less skin than most girls her age show on the beach! Annie Leibovitz’s photos of Miley Cyrus for Vanity Fair are beautiful. I see no reason for Miley to even apologize! Yes, young girls look up […]

Let Them Eat Cake Or Let Them Ride Bikes!
April 29th, 2008 · By Lynn
Okay, so Marie-Antoinette didn’t say, “Let them eat cake.” when the people of France were on the verge of starvation and at the eve of a French Revolution, but Nicolas Sarkozy did say if you can’t afford to fill up your gas tank, then “ride a bike!” With inflation increasing in France, tax blunders costing billions, […]
