I remember when timeshares were the big thing and how they absolutely blew up in the eighties and nineties. And somewhere in the contract execution, people were getting screwed over left and right, caught in a cycle of never-ending escalating payments and fees that just got stupid. A Michigan couple is being reminded (once again)Continue reading “Easy Does It”

Pride
Normal pride is good, healthy even. It is only when it traverses the boundaries of decency into the realm of hubris and arrogance that it is counter-productive. Cry all you want about the economy and the active and impending tariffs, but one good thing to come out of it (well, two actually). 1) people areContinue reading “Pride”
Alright Already!
Our president has made an unpopular move and I happen to agree with him on this. What’s the big deal about him proposing a bill for voters to show proof of U.S. citizenship? That is the minimum requirement you need to vote to have your voice count in the American voting process. You can’t justContinue reading “Alright Already!”
That’s More Like It
A sixty-five year old American dumbass thought he’d be cute and carve his name into a sacred Japanese temple pillar. I hope they give the idiot the maximum three years in prison to think about what a dumbass he is. You can’t win ‘em all, Disney. Mixed in with your mega box office hits areContinue reading “That’s More Like It”
A Long Way to Go
You see stories of the unabashed hatred some people have for transgender people and I am the last one to understand it, but I don’t hate what I don’t understand. I either study it in depth or move on to another subject. And the world somehow keeps spinning… So I don’t understand the resistance toContinue reading “A Long Way to Go”
Hocus Pocus
Nothing up my sleeve…. And presto! Change-o! We are no longer a democratic citizenry. We are a mob just waiting for something to piss us off enough to do violence and destruction. We should be so proud. And in the “Only in America” department, people are reportedly being picked up by ICE agents all acrossContinue reading “Hocus Pocus”
Here it Comes…
Since I am a big fan of survival movies, I was flicking through the film selections on the tube and I saw a movie from 2015 which was simply titled Everest. I was a huge fan of Vertical Limit so I figured I would check this movie out. It wasn’t bad and I would readilyContinue reading “Here it Comes…”
Have Fun!
Spring break is here! Just don’t travel anywhere. Even staying home is dangerous anymore. Even our old buddy Germany is warning its citizens of venturing here. Now I know I’m just an old country boy from East L.A. but I don’t think that Delta jet airplane was supposed to land upside down. The CEO ofContinue reading “Have Fun!”
And the Beat Goes On…
The president has ordered the release of the over 100,000 previously-classified government documents related to the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy. Do we really want to know? I don’t understand the logic or strategy behind such a move. Stay tuned… Those of you Trump sycophants who elected him king, do not act shockedContinue reading “And the Beat Goes On…”
Now Hear This…
As you may or may not know, I was not blessed with children, which is why, when I was physically able, I was so involved with coaching young kids in several sports, including basketball, football, baseball, and soccer. Both girls and boys. The little girls were great because they did whatever I asked of themContinue reading “Now Hear This…”
