Judy Jennette and the Pure Oil Station

 So, here’s the skinny on the Pure Oil Station sale. Not rumor. Fact.
A couple of years ago, the Washington Area Historic Foundation Board  met and decided to ask Mr. Parvin, about-to-be former owner of the Washington Pure Oil Station and to include protective covenants in the sale of the gas station. Provisions that would prevent [...]

an open letter to the Washington Daily News

 In response to today’s misguided editorial commenting on the efforts to save the Pure Oil Station.
A plan? Here’s a plan… cash offers have been made to buy the building. CASH. Offered by people who want to save the building, whether it be to move it or keep it in its present place. Read the [...]

Perpendicular crosswalks through the Washington wetlands area?

To the City and Progress Partners: So, we as taxpayers, citizens, and, apparently, the great unwashed masses, are not now –nor have we ever been– allowed any access to the wetlands area on the north side of the estuary boardwalk yet the condominium owners –as well as Lucy Grist and her band of merry men– [...]

Beaufort County Commissioner Stan Deatherage proves his stupidity, again.

 Playing the "conservatives care for you more than liberals" card, Stan Deatherage shows the world what an incompetent, bigoted, foolish turd he truly is.

Our Philosophy:

I believe that religion, generally speaking, has been a curse to mankind - that its modest and greatly overestimated services on the ethical side have been more than overcome by the damage it has done to clear and honest thinking. I believe that no discovery of fact, however trivial, can be wholly useless to the race, and that no trumpeting of falsehood, however virtuous in intent, can be anything but vicious. I believe that all government is evil, in that all government must necessarily make war upon liberty... I believe that the evidence for immortality is no better than the evidence of witches, and deserves no more respect. I believe in the complete freedom of thought and speech... I believe in the capacity of man to conquer his world, and to find out what it is made of, and how it is run. I believe in the reality of progress. I - But the whole thing, after all, may be put very simply. I believe that it is better to tell the truth than to lie. I believe that it is better to be free than to be a slave. And I believe that it is better to know than be ignorant. **HL Mencken
