If I’ve Told You Once…
Hey Meta! Hey dumbass! STFU and quit having an artificial entity run your life. Think for yourself! It’s tough enough living in America today, but can you imagine how nice it must be to be an American citizen in Venezuela right now? Talk about persona non grata. The whole transgenders-in-sports debate is back in the…
Hold Your Nose
The Department of Homeland Security has found that their version of what happened in the shooting of Renee Nicole Good, murdered in Minnesota, was met with a firestorm of scorn, ridicule and doubt so they did what anyone would do. They changed their story. There you go now. All better. Except for Cuba. It’s looking…
Don’t Blink
There are ways of departing this sphere of existence and then there is getting buried under a landslide of mud, debris, and garbage at a landfill in Manilla, Philippines. We don’t choose how or when. HE does. So tragic. The U.S. just seized the fifth oil tanker linked to Venezuela. One more and I will…
The Long and Short of it
Now President Gustavo Petro of Colombia is jumping all froggy on our president. Like Colombia is the model for anything. Puh-leeze. The corruption and fraud existed on several layers in Minnesota, not just a couple of barefoot Somali kids playing around on a computer. So, when I hear Democrat Governor Tim Walz deny knowing anything…
Wayward Thinking…
Somewhere in the forests of Colorado, a mountain lion is roaming free after killing a woman on New Year’s Day. She was an intruder, walking on his path in his home. The loss of any life I believe to be tragic, but the human response was predictable and even more of a tragedy. When they…
Making Sense of Absolutely Nothing
He has totally denigrated women. He has been indicted for multiple felonies. He has lied, cheated, stolen, and defrauded. He has ignored the letter of the law, trampled on the United States Constitution, and he has humiliated both himself and his country on numerous occasions. But he starts to doze off in a meeting and…
Hold On
That nerdy little gamer son of yours now has another potential conduit for his gaming ”skills.” Military drone operator. Except these aren’t little electronic dots and blips he’s dealing with; these are real bombs killing real people. Real bombs bombing real hospitals and schools. If they are great gamers, they will be great at killing…
Playing Dirty
I have previously chronicled the beginning and end of my big-time criminal career in a post from several years ago titled The Great Classroom Caper of 1962 and I can (and have) ranted about how much I hate thieves. There is something so primal about taking something that doesn’t belong to you, and I think…
Here Today, Here Tomorrow
The president has proposed term limits for politicians: Six years for House of Representatives. Twelve years for Senators. He mentioned ‘nary a word on term limits for the presidency… Lane Kiffin, highly regarded as an offensive strategist in college football, has also sown his seeds of discontent. Just ask USC. Tennessee. Mississippi. Is LSU his…
A Christmas (Eve) Story…
I admit it. I am a sucker for Christmas and I always have been. But it’s not the presents. Or the lights. Or the colorful decorations. Keep in mind now that this is from my perspective, approaching my seventy-first Christmas. Christmas carols. Corny, and I love to hear people, especially kids, singing them. I think…
