The point spread for the college football national championship game between the infidels from Ohio State vs. God’s chosen gladiators of the gridiron, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, has been posted. You can tell I’m impartial. Nine and a half points. So all the gambling “experts” have stated that the Buckeyes will easily defeat theContinue reading “Relax”

YODO
I go nuts when I see pictures and read stories of young daredevils tempting fate and the Gods and risk the one and only life they have been granted. I thought it would subside after the initial videos started and perpetuated the YOLO movement of one-upmanship. But no. I still haven’t actual physical proofContinue reading “YODO”
Baby its Cold Outside…
But it’s freezing in your heart. To quote a great songwriter (me). We got about eight inches of snow in the last 24 hours and its still coming down at noon EST. My two doggies, Arizona weather-weenies, are none too pleased. So, I’m checking out the news which I have not visited in some timeContinue reading “Baby its Cold Outside…”
I Missed a lot…
Evidently. Jimmy Carter died. He always seemed like a pretty straight shooter to me. And he loved his wife and family. A good God-fearing man. Rest in peace, sir. I love everything about the College Football Playoffs, except one little change I would make. Reward the top-4 ranked teams with the first round byes. SpeakingContinue reading “I Missed a lot…”
Glory United!
Of course I had to lead off with that. Manchester United 2 Manchester City 1. With as much crap I tend to pile on the squad for a lack of fire in their play, it seems that new manager Ruben Amorim has lit a fire under the lads. I was one who pointed out theContinue reading “Glory United!”
What a World!
Juan Soto, the highly-coveted free agent outfielder from last season’s New York Yankees, has just signed a 760 million dollar contract to play baseball for the New York Mets until the year 2040. Just in case, he also received 75 million just for signing the contract. Are we paying our educators, the individuals responsible forContinue reading “What a World!”
Patience, My Ass!
As you may, or may not know, I was not blessed with a plethora of patience. And that was at birth. Now add seventy years’ worth of life on planet Earth, and I have next to zero left in the tank. I’ve always had a hard time with stupidity. Ignorance is hard to find faultContinue reading “Patience, My Ass!”
No More Excuses
Finally. The very best thing about watching my beloved Manchester United Devils beat down the Toffees of Everton, I liked more what was said BEFORE the match even started at storied Old Trafford on a beautiful sunny day in Manchester. “We have no more excuses if we don’t beat Everton on Sunday.” That from theContinue reading “No More Excuses”
Stealing
There are all sorts of crimes and taking something that is not yours is the absolute lowest. I have more respect for a murderer than a thief. Now before you get all puffed up and froggy, I recognize the difference between ill-gotten gain and a necessity to survive for those desperate enough to try andContinue reading “Stealing”
The One That Got Away
We all have one. That one special person, maybe even your very first crush that turned into a boyfriend-girlfriend situation. But then something happened. Life. You moved, they moved, whatever. As a military dependent living with a very ambitious Staff Sergeant in the United States Air Force, we travelled a lot. It was our lastContinue reading “The One That Got Away”
