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”

Tiffany
Her full name was Tiffany O’Malley McDuff Diaz and her name was bigger than she was. I found her at an old farm in northeast Ohio just a few miles away from the Indiana border. It was a chilly night and I pulled up the dirt road leading to an old farmhouse with the requisiteContinue reading “Tiffany”
I Guess I Still Don’t Get It
As I flip through my FB screen, I will occasionally see something I am personally affronted and insulted by, and I take immediate steps to remove the post and any like it forever. Not so fast to pull the trigger when one of the hot internet babes flash a bikini pic occasionally. The Domestic DespotContinue reading “I Guess I Still Don’t Get It”
Another Brick in the Wall
When I moved up to Las Vegas in 1977, I had been offered a partial academic-athletic scholarship to play soccer and attend the University of Nevada-Las Vegas. Thanks to some European influences, the team was starting to grow a strong following. One of the coaches was Thomas Heinz from Stuttgart, Germany, and an ex-Bundesliga (topContinue reading “Another Brick in the Wall”
Over the Top
Don’t get me started about people who do not tip employees who perform a service for them. Now, if you just stopped there, we would just look at you, roll our eyes, and think what a cheap asshole. But no. It’s when you try and justify your moral ascendancy, in the rarified air ABOVE mortalContinue reading “Over the Top”
Where Did it Go?
It was here just a minute ago. My memory. Despite my wife’s inaccurate recollections, I am just now starting to notice small signs that my once precise eidetic memory is slipping. There are TWO THINGS that I always remember. Always have and always will. Who I owe money to and who owes me money. 100%Continue reading “Where Did it Go?”
Love/Hate
I used to love it when the first SweetTart out of the roll was a cherry one. I hated moving from country to country as an Air Force family, but I really loved meeting and exchanging with new peoples and cultures. I love dogs, but hated it when I had to undergo a very painfulContinue reading “Love/Hate”
No Pressure
I think we would all like to think we would be cool under pressure, and able to lead masses of people if need be. Right. Very few are the stalwarts, impervious to distraction. Single-minded, yes? But in a good way. These are the people I want placed in charge of keeping our citizens safe (includingContinue reading “No Pressure”
At Long Last
Ukraine has discovered that medical marijuana eases the pain and stress of the war. No shit. It eases whatever stress and pain I incur from reading about the war almost instantly. Especially if the THC count is in the thirties… Don’t look now, but the Ukrainians are losing their war (and country) back to theContinue reading “At Long Last”
Raise Your Hand
Anyone on this planet with access to the news believe that Putin, that ignorant, paranoid little bald lawn gnome, might have had something to do with Alexey Navalny’s death raise your hands. Come on, up with them. Straight in the air. Now lower your arm forty-five degrees. You get it. And you are a TOTALContinue reading “Raise Your Hand”
