Sing it Neil. I’m approaching having spent seven full decades of time on this planet, so it seems like every couple of years one of my life influences/heroes are leaving this sphere of existence. It used to be every decade or so, but lately that time gap is shortening. The more things change… Another MiddleContinue reading “It’s Better to Burn Out…”

Real or Fake?
Genuine versus an imitation. How about imitation crab? Have you seen this white rubber painted with a color that resembles the unmistakable orange-pink hues of mercurochrome. I prefer big meaty King Crab legs. Egg Beaters. I know egg yolks are bad for you, but I figure I might eat less than a dozen eggs inContinue reading “Real or Fake?”
Who Cares?
As I approach the last fifteen years of my life, I can not only see my own ticket being punched, but I will leave with a hope for the future of all species. I remember being so caught up in idealism and truth that it led me to pursue pre-law in my first college experience.Continue reading “Who Cares?”
Team Loyalty
I don’t get fair weather fans. You know, the ones with all the gear, know all the latest news and buzz about the team, but as soon as the team suffers a bit of a downturn, off the bandwagon they jump. I remember being in Sun Devil stadium in Tempe, Arizona the last time NotreContinue reading “Team Loyalty”
Just Once
I want to see stupid tourists endure instant karma and ignore the barriers, jump the fences and hop onto a rock formation that cracks and sends them to a crushing death below. But that’s just me. Is it me, or did it take about fifty less elections to get rid of that lame-ass KMac? IContinue reading “Just Once”
Either Or
Either through a cloudy drug haze, revenge, or infatuation, I was able to experience the trappings of the lifestyle of the mega-wealthy in my youth. Of course none of this happened because the Domestic Despot will tell you, without blinking, that there was no one else before she appeared in my life. So in theContinue reading “Either Or”
What’s Next?
Artificial Intelligence. Although if you queried the Domestic Despot, she would offer that she has been living with artificial intelligence since we moved in together into a tiny studio apartment in the foothills of Santa Barbara in 1986. What I want to know is why, all of a sudden, are we inundated with idiot politiciansContinue reading “What’s Next?”
Grey Divorce
I had no idea what that even was until some family members we have are going through issues after forty years. Forty years. I don’t have a clue about the new ways of going about getting married, as I was one of those saps that did the whole “struck by a thunderbolt” thing when IContinue reading “Grey Divorce”
Le Dans Macabre
More than five-hundred mass shootings in The Greatest Country on Earth….. So far. What a tragedy. A beautiful 440-lb. brown bear was euthanized because human swine, deserving of loss of life, decided they were obviously raised by bovine grandparents and simian parents and had to throw out their trash and garbage uncovered and littered throughoutContinue reading “Le Dans Macabre”
Riddle Me This
Is Elon Musk the biggest douchebag on planet Earth? I mean, he’s either this brilliant business icon/madman capable of great invention, or the biggest douchebag on planet Earth. There is no middle ground. But hey, this is America. Why can’t he be both? Since this Cavalcante fellow has eluded the Keystone Cops, er I meanContinue reading “Riddle Me This”
