In order to curb a steep increase in juvenile crimes, Fayetteville, North Carolina is going after the real criminals: negligent parents. People: once you have a kid, that’s not the end of it. You don’t just feed it like a pet, you have to do other things like teach them to be good citizens forContinue reading “What He Said…”

All Hands on Deck
The owner of a restaurant is being forced to pay over three million dollars to a Sous Chef for the torment and physical abuse he suffered under the restaurant’s Executive Chef for two and a half years. Although I was fortunate enough to work for owners with very deep pockets, I would never put atContinue reading “All Hands on Deck”
There Are No Words
To describe the disdain and condemnation I feel for child or animal abusers. I view them the same. That is why not one red cent of any lottery winnings I might ever win would end up in human charities. In my book EMOTIONS: Not your Mama’s ABC’s, under the emotion Affable, I quote a fictionalContinue reading “There Are No Words”
Grab Your Ankles
Showing they are indeed the Beverly Hillbillies of the world, those wacky French want to swim in the sewer that is, and always has been since the French Industrial Revolution, the Seine River.

I understand the logic. Take your chances with the crocodiles and pythons or get your skin bleached, dress up likeContinue reading “Another Day in the Life”
Brace Yourself
The Russian head of the Ministry of Oil has “fallen out of a window” (oops!) as have many people who found themselves in disfavor with none other than that little bald lawn gnome Putin. Oh yeah. He left a suicide note. Right. Talk about blowing my mind… France is placing a ban on smoking inContinue reading “Brace Yourself”
Did That Happen?
A man jumped into the ocean to save his daughter who had fallen overboard. Of course the dumbasses in the press want a story, so they throw around negligence and failure to adequately supervise and protect their child while onboard, but that doesn’t make the father’s actions any less heroic. That takes balls, yes, butContinue reading “Did That Happen?”
Hold My Beer
Well I guess the question of just how the American MLS (Major League Soccer) stacks up against world-class competition has been answered. Sorry, Sir David. It doesn’t. Not by a long shot. Paris Saint Germain made them look like a high school team. Not even the great magic of Lionel Messi or the power ofContinue reading “Hold My Beer”
