Born a 10th generation Oregonian, (5 generations on each side) I have an enthusiasm for learning and teaching new things. After a ten year mini career in the dental field I moved on to research and embraced the social web. Though the internet is far too large for any one person to claim to be an expert, I can hold my own with the latest trends.
I enjoy researching and writing blogs. As the "Internet Program Director" for myMotherLode.com since 2008, I update the website and have a wide variety of interests. There is always something entertaining, educational or inspirational to share.
According to reports, more than 2,600 officials at agencies from the Commerce Department to the Treasury Department, during both Republican and Democratic administrations, disclosed stock investments in companies while those same companies were lobbying their agencies for favorable policies.

The unattainable goals and onerous mandates that Gavin Newsome’s policies have forced on Californians so that he can claim green street cred for his near-certain Presidential campaign, will only further cripple the state’s economy and quality of life. Requiring everything to be run by electricity in a state with ongoing brownouts is, in itself, ridiculous.
