Walterine Odom in her letter to the editor (NSS 4/10/26) shows that she has an extreme case of TDS. She starts off her attack on my submission by facing the transgender issue.

Murderers account for a very, very small fraction of the population, but should we neglect them? Transgender males, having superior strength, have caused injuries and often dominated female sports. That is the reason why the Olympic committee has banned them.

Seeds of Delight
When are seeds of delight sewn?
Why could a mother hear her not-yet-speaking-the-king’s-English child babbling in the other room and recognize the rhythm of the poems she had read to her earlier?

What is the source of a fascination with mathematics or mechanics or music or photography or words?

Picking a partner
This space is usually reserved for grievances. There’s always something deserving of a good, old-fashioned rant. But not today.

Inflation, inflation everywhere, but no relief in sight. At least it seems that way.
The CPI spiked in March with prices rising the fastest since May 2024. The annual 3.3% rate was almost one point higher than the 2.4% reported for February. Particularly driving the increase was a 10.9% surge in energy costs resulting from the war in Iran, reported CNBC.

In February of 2023 a revival broke out on the campus of Asbury University in Wilmore, Kentucky. It was preceded by lots of prayer and the quiet desperation of spiritual need; it was followed by a wave of national exposure and media commentary.
