I know, I know. A lot of people bow up and get all froggy when they hear the “s” word, but truth be told (which I will do on occasion), there are some kids that could use a little extra somethin’-somethin’ when it comes to their discipline routine. And everyone knows who they are. GoContinue reading “Spanking Your Children”

Changes
Finally! My beloved Manchester United Red Devil football club has given manager Erik Ten Hag his walking papers after guiding the team down as low as we have ever been in the Premier League. I never cared for the man, I admit, but he never really did anything during his tenure that changed my opinionContinue reading “Changes”
Marijuana
I started smoking pot when I was 14 and a sophomore in high school. It seemed a natural thing to do since I was playing in a hot little rock and roll band and I did not like the smell or taste of tobacco smoke. I thought it was great that I could get aContinue reading “Marijuana”
Mere Observations
So the machinists at Boeing are continuing their walkout, demanding a new contract. Their planes are falling apart and dropping out of the sky on a daily basis, so why not reward them with more money? I’ll take the train, thanks. September home sales were highest in years, but how is anyone able to buyContinue reading “Mere Observations”
When You Know, You Know
That will only make sense to all my fellow hopeless romantics who check out this blog. My very first glance was all it took. I had grown up hearing the old “love at first sight” explanation to the unique chemistry that is love, but really had no frame of reference. I didn’t really fully believeContinue reading “When You Know, You Know”
One Speed
That’s all you should have. To quote the late great Gene Wilder from 1980’s Stir Crazy, balls out. Off or balls out. For everything. You only get one chance to live each and every moment of your time on this planet in this sphere of existence. Then you die. So don’t dial it in. IContinue reading “One Speed”
Respect
Nothing but mad respect for all healthcare professionals, but nurses in particular, seem to spend the most face time with patients whenever you are hospitalized. I have been hospitalized more times than I care to count, so I know of whence I speak. I have no doubts my love of nurses came from my stayContinue reading “Respect”
It’s Getting Close
Pretty soon, bye-bye political ads. At the least the half-truths and downright lies being espoused by both parties’ candidates. Then we can go about putting our fingers in our ears and sing “la!la!la!” as we listen to their half-truths and downright lies when they take office and ask us to believe them one more time.Continue reading “It’s Getting Close”
Fork it Over (cont’d)
I had eaten some mushrooms of suspect origin. Stay well.
Fork it Over
I have no earthly idea what that means in the figurative sense, but according to my life companion for the last forty years, I don’t have a clue about anything anyway. I can see “hand it over” and even the incorrect “give it over” which are the instructions the Domestic Despot gives to our doggiesContinue reading “Fork it Over”
