I am one of the most easy-going old dudes you will ever meet, but every so often, things happen and, believe it or not, I get agitated. Like when I hear of abuse of any kind. I will go after you every bit as hard if you hurt an animal or a human being. Promise.Continue reading “Knock it Off!”

An Absolutely Perfect Day For Golf
I watched every televised stroke of the recently-completed Master’s at Augusta National. I studied every swing of every golfer. I analyzed the stance, the address, the takeback, and finally, the follow-through and hip twist of every top golfer. I emulated them. I took the best part of each of their golf games and consumed thisContinue reading “An Absolutely Perfect Day For Golf”
Never Ever Ever Apologize!
Unless you screw something up and you have to. Israel isn’t apologizing for anything After all, it wasn’t their citizens hang gliding down on a group of all those innocent, honest Hamas people we hear so much about, shooting automatic rifles indiscriminately. And the definition of insanity? History has provided you with the 6-day War,Continue reading “Never Ever Ever Apologize!”
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!”
What Comes Around…
That lying, thieving, cheating, murdering fraudster Alex Murdaugh was given forty years to serve on his myriad of fraud charges. Even running concurrently, he should get out around the time he hits 95. Timing. You are driving along the Pacific Coast Highway with the beautiful pink sunset on your right shoulder as you head southContinue reading “What Comes Around…”
Shameless
Just when I start to think I’ve seen it all… A man on the moon. A presidential assassination. A black president. A failed American coup. A presidential candidate selling bibles to raise money. Look, you start to get desperate when you are down to your last seven billion dollars. Cuts have to be made. He’llContinue reading “Shameless”
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”
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”
