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”

More Sports Injuries
I wrote about how far sports injuries have come, or rather the way they are treated. As much as I love European football (soccer), I still can’t stand it when an ultra-fit racehorse of an athlete gets knicked on his boot and down he goes, writhing in ungodly pain and what looks like a certainContinue reading “More Sports Injuries”
Just Don’t
Sage advice indeed. When you see a small animal in the wild in need of help, you naturally want to pick them up and hold them in a sign of affection. Just don’t. You have taken them away from their natural family and ensured they will never again be able to live free like theyContinue reading “Just Don’t”
Trifecta
In my effort to cultivate some interest for my first novel, I am running this excerpt from the book by running it three consecutive days. I hope that you check out some of my blogs, as I have been writing them for over two years. *** I’ve been lolly-gagging and dilly-dallying now for two yearsContinue reading “Trifecta”
In The Doghouse (again)
It doesn’t happen quite as much anymore, but I still find myself undergoing the silent treatment and the slow burn, even after I wisely, preemptively, apologize. I don’t take nearly as long as I used to delivering my mea culpa. That’s just wasted time. When I am wrong, I’m wrong. It only took most ofContinue reading “In The Doghouse (again)”
Did You Not Watch Soylent Green?
I know exactly how Charlton Heston felt when he looked up at the crumbling remains of the Statue of Liberty at the end of Planet of the Apes. We’re doing it to ourselves. America’s greed will be her undoing. It’s one thing to rape the land of some overgrown third-world country, but in our ownContinue reading “Did You Not Watch Soylent Green?”
I Thought I Heard it All
Keystone. Car 54 Where are you? Uvalde. The police shot and killed a double amputee. Not the athletic, mobile type running on two prosthetic limbs. No. Stumps. He was trying to run away on his stumps. They caught him by walking. He did, however, have a butcher knife he was wielding, so, according to theContinue reading “I Thought I Heard it All”
Finally!
How many years and how many lives later, a dog owner is being held accountable for a murder his unrestrained dog committed on a little girl. Dogs are not natural killers; they are taught that and I hope the owner has to suffer some horrible consequences, commensurate with the pain inflicted by his dog. IContinue reading “Finally!”
And The Beat Goes On…
Another child has left this world without getting a chance to live their life first. Shot down in Houston, Texas, a five year-old boy was killed. By an eight year-old boy. I wonder if the kid had led a rough street life of crime, if he had a lengthy rap sheet, or he was justContinue reading “And The Beat Goes On…”
Close Call
So I decide to brave the traffic and the impending Winter Storm of the Century if you believe the forecasters, and headed north on I-75 to the humane society which I represent, and on the way, I spied a new building sitting out on its own. I could see kennels and a large play areaContinue reading “Close Call”
