There is no excuse whatsoever, for baking your child to death in your hot car as you sit in the cool air-conditioned bar knocking a few back with friends. No worries. Trump will probably pardon them. Speaking of DJT, some judge is preventing him from taking over the Department of Education. What, I ask is,Continue reading “No Misgivings…”

Hold On!
Every time I turn around, Trump has signed another bill or made another proposal, or has even reached out to everybody and his brother for a conference. WTF? He didn’t do this much in the entire four years of his first presidency. I want to think that is a good thing, but part of meContinue reading “Hold On!”
Smells
Some of my very favorites: Newborn baby smell. Doesn’t last for long. Unspoiled. Japanese villages food stalls. New cut lumber. Old car smell. As opposed to the clean, factory-generated new car smell. I’m talking an old Rolls Royce or Bentley Town Car that has endured five kids, three grandchildren and cartons upon cartons of DunhillsContinue reading “Smells”
I KNOW Why Me?
I am my best ally and my own worst enemy. I elevated myself to levels of euphoria and visited the depths of the abyss. From the year 1974 to 1987, if given any two choices, I would indubitably choose the option that was the worse for me. Consistently. Knowingly. When I entered the higher echelonsContinue reading “I KNOW Why Me?”
This story got me Banned from Facebook!
I think of myself as a pretty reasonable person, but yesterday I was notified that a recent story I posted on Facebook had resulted in several bad comments and just like that, Maddogg’s fb voice was silenced. My response to the “support” team was: “It’s a story. Fiction.” Evidently, my succinct response resulted in myContinue reading “This story got me Banned from Facebook!”
An End to the Madness
The worst-ever season in their Premier League history. Overpaid underperformers, over-the-hill players still making lineups based on past reputations, and third-rate talent is the result. Mismanagement. Is there just one coach to the players that can show them how to create offensive rhythm and hence more scoring opportunities? Have you seen the Manchester United offense?Continue reading “An End to the Madness”
Good For You!
It’s 3:08pm EST here and the sun is completely hidden behind the moon. There are scores of people gathered at a local park not far from my house and, at the exact moment of total eclipse, the crowd hoots and hollers like it’s 1999 (thanks Prince). Why? Because they made it through the event? WayContinue reading “Good For You!”
Loneliness
I like being alone, but I suppose feeling lonely is a curse for some. Others can be alone even when surrounded by other people. I am one of them. I think I equate people with being antithetical to a clean and healthy planet. I would be alright with a smaller world population, or even better,Continue reading “Loneliness”
The Big “L”
Nat King Cole and nearly every other singer on the planet has, at one time or another, placed a love song or two in their playlist. We sing about love, we revere it, we even build great monuments to it. But what are we doing to perpetuate it? Love is not self-sustaining. It needs toContinue reading “The Big “L””
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”
