We survived another April Fools Day. When you deal with the subjects that we deal with, it is sometimes difficult to tell truth from fiction, and I’m glad that’s over with now.

Notes from HJL: Concerning the emerging story coming out of Jemez Springs, New Mexico, we have been waiting for the other shoe to drop. I have no love for the TSA and wouldn’t be surprised by the actions I have seen taken, but there is apparently more to the story.
