Back to viewing the world through my highly-distorted lens macabre. Man, what a world we live in. And nobody makes it out alive… Watching the great tennis on display at the U.S. Open is one of my favorite sporting events of the year. In the heat of battle, after losing to fleshy American Taylor Townsend,Continue reading “Like I Never Left”

I Plead the Fourth
I’m back in sports heaven now that college football games and English Premier League football matches have resumed, so I continue my posting of songs I have recorded and/or written. I will resume writing in the more conventional way after Monday night’s TCU vs North Carolina game. Four straight days of music, this time allContinue reading “I Plead the Fourth”
Three in a Row
Since we are approaching the first full week of college football, I will post my music through the weekend. I wrote this song as an autobiographical dig at my crazy-ass self; a period of my existence that lasted way longer than it should have and I’m sure my behavior would have been different if IContinue reading “Three in a Row”
More Music
I had a surprisingly good response (s) from my first music post yesterday, so, keeping with that whole strike-while-the-iron’s-hot thing, I am following it up with three more songs in today’s post.. I was working as a French Executive Chef in the Midwest in the early ‘90’s and I had the occasion to run intoContinue reading “More Music”
The Devil You Say!
North Korea is “locking up” their nuclear arsenal since dialogue between Kim Jong-un and President Trump has stopped. What the hell does that even mean? The new Ayatollah of rock-n-rolla, the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei of Iran seems to be the only world leader who doesn’t have his head up his ass. He correctly identified theContinue reading “The Devil You Say!”
Pardon the Interruption
Those funny little TikTok challenges are funny alright—until they are not. Three teens are lucky they were not killed when they rang the wrong doorbell in Texas, but it could be Anywhere, U.S.A. It’s not the same world, so you can’t act the same. But it IS Texas and you just don’t go trying homeContinue reading “Pardon the Interruption”
A Good Time Had by All
Well, almost all. You campaigned for him. Defended his every action and word. You voted for him. You opened a restaurant which was not much more than a shrine to him. You posted his face all over the menu and restaurant and even produced a signature dish and called it the Trump Burger. And now,Continue reading “A Good Time Had by All”
Back to Basics
The California (where else?) Supreme Court has blocked the Republicans from stopping the Democrats from doing what Texas is doing and redistricting their state to suit their political needs. What say we stop fucking around and just get the inevitable civil war out of the way so the world can move on? With or withoutContinue reading “Back to Basics”
Mere Happenstance?
I think not. My man President Zelensky is set to meet in the oval Office and will be showing up looking very much like Oliver Twist. “Please, sir, may I have some more?” I can see him begging for the extra jets and other weapons of death as his benefactor makes life and death decisions.Continue reading “Mere Happenstance?”
Always the Last to Know
John Cena had a good run. But like all good things… Now that he is hand-stitching his hair to his scalp, it’s time to call it a day, Champ. He says his body is screaming at him to retire. I hope he listens to it. Every so often Florida screws up and does something right…Continue reading “Always the Last to Know”
