If you’ve ever stayed up late at night, there on your futon, restless, staring at your popcorn ceiling, wondering what a Trump vs. Sanders town hall/debate would look like… then sleep well tonight, friends.

Sarah Palin: Impressions from Land Down Under Obama Wowed France, But Australians Like Palin Recently returned from Australia, a DBKP writer had the opportunity to gauge the feelings of the Aussies towards Governor Palin's selection as McCain's Vice-President.

While Australia has the persona of a wilderness, in fact, the vast majority of people are urban--much more so than America. Nevertheless, they are extremely proud, as well they should be, of their humble, rough-and-tumble beginnings. This continent made early American and Canadian wilderness look hospitable. The...

1/8/2008 - DAVIS-MONTHAN AIR FORCE BASE, Ariz. (AFPN) -- On my way to work the other day, I saw a minor car accident. A sedan full of teenagers slammed into the bumper of a Lincoln Towncar driven by an elderly gentleman. Immediately, a uniformed Airman leapt from his truck to provide aid.

Anyone who does a lot of public speaking knows there are certain questions that inevitably arise from the audience in a Q&A. In my case, lecturing on pseudoscience and the paranormal, I am almost always asked: What is my position on the afterlife? ("I'm for it"), have I ever encountered a mystery that science cannot explain? ("Paris Hilton"), and have I ever been skeptical of something that turned out to be real?
