Bob Edwards: Acronymic Initialisms â From WTF to LOL - Sonoma Valley Sun (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Your correspondent predicts that schools everywhere â from pre-K to university â will soon be adding a new course to their curricula: Acronymics and Initialisms. Our language has become so chock-full of both that it is necessary to know them, and the difference between them, if there is to be any hope of understanding each other, or what we hear and read: A&I â not to be confused with AI â has become so fundamental to everyday communication that if Our Founders returned, they would not
Bob Edwards: Resist Socialism â Kiss a Robot! - Sonoma Valley Sun (opens the original)
Read excerpt
First it was covid, then measles, which has not been not-seen since vaccines were invented. Then came cyclospora (âthe shitzâ), one case of which can empty an entire stadium. And a skin-eating âvibro vulnificusâ recently struck the Gulf coast (No, ladies, itâs not what you think). But a more serious malady now threatens: Socialism.

Read excerpt
Because few have time to ponder the imponderables one encounters daily, your correspondent ponders in the publicâs interest. Recently pondered was the increasingly pervasive use of âbad wordsâ in broadcast and print media, and why they are considered âbad.â Back in the day, saying âpoopâ could get you a mouth-washing. No more. Though bad words are often âbleepedâ on-air and spelled with asterisks (*) in print, they proliferate. Parents know the day is coming when Baby asks, â
Bob Edwards: How Long May It Wave? - Sonoma Valley Sun (opens the original)
Read excerpt
OK, pay attention, kids: 2026 minus 1776 equals 250. Yes, the 250th anniversary of the United States â July 4, 2026 â is here, and it will never come again. For all those years itâs been a wild ride through chaos thick and thin, ups and downs, wars galore, glory and shame, feast and famine, and mostly without wifi. But when the fireworks end and the wine runs out it will be time to start thinking seriously about: How long will it last? No, thatâs not a happy thought. But itâs import
