Even my buddies the British don’t believe in any of the old royal concepts as they relate to the human condition in the 21st century. Not anymore. They have cell phones. Ordained? By whom? A God that nobody can agree on? And while all the attention has been focused on our horny old president, theContinue reading “Royal Misconceptions”

Age is Just a Number
One of the Dumbass Doctors—Phil or Oz (I can’t remember which) has posited that with the age expectancy climbing, the first person who will reach 200 years of age in their lifetime has already been born. Can you friggin’ even imagine being two-hundred? If you are young, of course not. Hell, you probably can’t evenContinue reading “Age is Just a Number”
Belief
Never underestimate the power of belief. Belief can overcome a lot of things. It can overpower strength. It can outrun speed. It can outperform talent. In the micro it is but a flash in the thought process, but in the macro, it divides, conquers, and kills. Religions are based on belief. Governments are based onContinue reading “Belief”
The Town Crier
Am I the only one getting tired of musicians telling us what their political views are? I could give two you-know-whats what your thoughts are on the socialism vs. communism debate. Shut up and play the guitar Aristotle. Forget A.I. technology. We have the “discombobulator” which allowed us to take down Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro.Continue reading “The Town Crier”
Brain Fodder
Here we go with the “cognitive decline” stories about the president. A big deal is being made because he seemed to forget who Nancy Pelosi was. That’s no decline, he’d LOVE to forget the plucky old bird because she has been a vocal thorn in his side and backside ever since I can remember. BecauseContinue reading “Brain Fodder”
Presto! Change-o!
If only it were that simple. Not quite the Boston Tea Party, but it’s a start. Some anti-ICE protesters took over a hotel lobby in New York City to protest their housing of federal ICE agents. I’m sure the student working part-time on the reservation desk didn’t make the policy. Or the night maintenance guy.Continue reading “Presto! Change-o!”
Why Bother?
It looks like the First Lady is not quite the popular draw she thought she’d be after releasing her self-titled 75-million-dollar-box-office BOMB. It doesn’t help that she has the personality of a grapefruit. But she does have six-inch stilettos. This is rich. The president is blaming his recent dip in popularity in polls on “badContinue reading “Why Bother?”
If Worse Comes to Worst
There are those that will tell you it already has, but let’s take a closer look at the “worst-case scenario” with our current “leadership” in charge. Total planetary annihilation. Oops. Bad idea. I don’t wanna be your buzzkill today. That would make for a very short blog post anyway. So, it takes a change inContinue reading “If Worse Comes to Worst”
They Said it Couldn’t be Done
I am certainly not trying to jinx anything, but there is now a small flame of hope burning in Old Trafford. Just a couple matches into Michael Carrick’s interim caretaker manager audition for the Manchester United Red Devils and at long last, I sense a renewed excitement on the pitch and in the team afterContinue reading “They Said it Couldn’t be Done”
Making the Best of It
Easy does it there. The president is threatening to deport naturalized citizens suspected of fraud. Maybe he should open his mail… If he left the country because of his fraud convictions, what would it be called? An abdication? It had to happen. The devaluation of a college education is the direct result of the greedContinue reading “Making the Best of It”
