Another mass shooting. Another prayer vigil. We’re up to two a day, for those of you keeping score. Now I can see the tension between political ideologies because it has been the American Way of Life since I was born. And I’m old now. But when did mere disagreement manifest into something evil? Disagree? “HangContinue reading “The Definition of Insanity”

Finally!
They had to take over twenty total elections to do it, but the Republicans finally have the right election-denying, white racist in place. Is Louisiana even still considered part of the United States? The look on the ex-presidents’ face as another fine of ten-thousand dollars was assessed.. Not because he doesn’t have the money, butContinue reading “Finally!”
Learn Something New Everyday
That is what we all do, until we expire. At least some people do. Some people never learn. Tourons. Tourist morons. A word which greatly reduces the length of my personal description of these fools, which is stupid-dumbass-losers-from-loser-parents-and loser-grandparents-and-whom-I-hope-suffer-a-slow-humiliating-and-excruciating-death. But that’s just me. The US has asked the Israelis not to respond with rage asContinue reading “Learn Something New Everyday”
It’s Not Like it Used to Be
Nothing is. Nor should it be. I say that wistfully, after getting a glimpse of the upcoming Derby Day clash between my beloved Manchester United Red Devils and the powder blue faggots from Manchester City. I am a lot of things, but I am not stupid. If I was still a betting man, I wouldContinue reading “It’s Not Like it Used to Be”
The Princess of Las Vegas
In my tumultuous wild ride in Sin City, a brief, but colorful segment was occupied working as a waiter in a high-end casino restaurant on the world-famous Strip. Talk about characters. Comps were everywhere, as I am sure they are today. (author’s note: I have not been back to Vegas since I left in 1981)Continue reading “The Princess of Las Vegas”
It’s Better to Burn Out…
Sing it Neil. I’m approaching having spent seven full decades of time on this planet, so it seems like every couple of years one of my life influences/heroes are leaving this sphere of existence. It used to be every decade or so, but lately that time gap is shortening. The more things change… Another MiddleContinue reading “It’s Better to Burn Out…”
Real or Fake?
Genuine versus an imitation. How about imitation crab? Have you seen this white rubber painted with a color that resembles the unmistakable orange-pink hues of mercurochrome. I prefer big meaty King Crab legs. Egg Beaters. I know egg yolks are bad for you, but I figure I might eat less than a dozen eggs inContinue reading “Real or Fake?”
Who Cares?
As I approach the last fifteen years of my life, I can not only see my own ticket being punched, but I will leave with a hope for the future of all species. I remember being so caught up in idealism and truth that it led me to pursue pre-law in my first college experience.Continue reading “Who Cares?”
Team Loyalty
I don’t get fair weather fans. You know, the ones with all the gear, know all the latest news and buzz about the team, but as soon as the team suffers a bit of a downturn, off the bandwagon they jump. I remember being in Sun Devil stadium in Tempe, Arizona the last time NotreContinue reading “Team Loyalty”
Just Once
I want to see stupid tourists endure instant karma and ignore the barriers, jump the fences and hop onto a rock formation that cracks and sends them to a crushing death below. But that’s just me. Is it me, or did it take about fifty less elections to get rid of that lame-ass KMac? IContinue reading “Just Once”
