It’s a beautiful sunny day here in southern Ohio but the forecast for tomorrow is snow. Just thirteen miles north, the City of Dayton has announced there will be intermittent closures of several of their roads. If you live near Dayton, you know it is more feasible to announce that there are intermittent openings. TheContinue reading “The Way I See It”

Red Flags
Your wife is always “too tired” and is totally fine with you going without her. Red flag. Last-minute and pop-up plans are met with a smile and a wistful, “oh well.” Red flag. You decide to drive to a club to go out drinking with your buddies. Red flag. There are too many options thatContinue reading “Red Flags”
Still Worth It?
You have to wonder. Our borders have been open to immigrants from all over the world, and I always thought, their own country must be really bad if they want to come here. They might want to think twice now. The president signed an Executive Order getting the infamous facility at Guantanamo prepped for certainContinue reading “Still Worth It?”
YODO
I go nuts when I see pictures and read stories of young daredevils tempting fate and the Gods and risk the one and only life they have been granted. I thought it would subside after the initial videos started and perpetuated the YOLO movement of one-upmanship. But no. I still haven’t actual physical proofContinue reading “YODO”
Baby its Cold Outside…
But it’s freezing in your heart. To quote a great songwriter (me). We got about eight inches of snow in the last 24 hours and its still coming down at noon EST. My two doggies, Arizona weather-weenies, are none too pleased. So, I’m checking out the news which I have not visited in some timeContinue reading “Baby its Cold Outside…”
Stealing
There are all sorts of crimes and taking something that is not yours is the absolute lowest. I have more respect for a murderer than a thief. Now before you get all puffed up and froggy, I recognize the difference between ill-gotten gain and a necessity to survive for those desperate enough to try andContinue reading “Stealing”
Marijuana
I started smoking pot when I was 14 and a sophomore in high school. It seemed a natural thing to do since I was playing in a hot little rock and roll band and I did not like the smell or taste of tobacco smoke. I thought it was great that I could get aContinue reading “Marijuana”
One Speed
That’s all you should have. To quote the late great Gene Wilder from 1980’s Stir Crazy, balls out. Off or balls out. For everything. You only get one chance to live each and every moment of your time on this planet in this sphere of existence. Then you die. So don’t dial it in. IContinue reading “One Speed”
How Lucky Can You Get?
The first time I remember hearing the expression was when I was a horny teenager and it was whatever you did or could do, to put you in a position to partake in some sort of sexual activity. Now, if you don’t believe in luck, as some people don’t, it tells me a couple thingsContinue reading “How Lucky Can You Get?”
My Three Cents
Advocacy groups for Texas inmates are complaining because there is no air conditioning. Oh boo fucking hoo. I am sure you are not doing time in a state penitentiary because you are, and always have been, a model citizen. I’m so sorry for your lyin’, cheatin’, rapin’, thievin’, murderin’ asses. Deal with it. I wantContinue reading “My Three Cents”
