The BBC is reporting on a deadly shooting in an Austin, Texas bar that left two dead and fourteen wounded. This act of EXTREME violence is being called a “possible act of terrorism.” I have questions (of course). What the hell ISN’T a “possible act of terrorism” anymore? What the hell are the BBC doingContinue reading “Hear Ye! Hear Ye!”

Don’t Blink
1973. An awesome year and the last time the United States government conscripted young men into our military war machine. A headline read Donald Jr. and Eric Trump “would be exempt from military draft for one key reason…” Could the reason be they are yellow-belly chickenshits like their father who dodged the draft five times?Continue reading “Don’t Blink”
Nothing is Possible
Not anymore. Not for everyone. Add Goldie Hawn, once one of the cutest faces in all of celebrityhood (did I just invent another word?) to the list of desperate old buzzards clinging fiercely to their last vestiges of youth with beauty-destroying cosmetic surgery. Artificial cheekbones. Plastic skin pulled tight. Duck lips. Sad. James Blair possessesContinue reading “Nothing is Possible”
Ask the Wizard
It’s about an hour away from the president’s State of the Union address and I am awaiting it with the same anticipation I had when waiting for the next Jerry Lewis movie in the 50’s and 60’s—I couldn’t wait to see what that zany whackenheimer was going to say or do next… {NOTE: since IContinue reading “Ask the Wizard”
A Trampoline Can Be Dangerous
Bone spurs. His dad paid a doctor to falsely diagnose, treat, and document his “medical condition” so he wouldn’t have to serve in the armed forces. That must be why he’s so upset that he wasn’t awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor like all the other of our nations real military heroes, many of whomContinue reading “A Trampoline Can Be Dangerous”
Your Guess is as Good as Mine
Maybe even better. Kid Rock had one good song (Cowboy), and he thinks he’s a music icon now. The song that was released in 1998. Age does not make you iconic. If he thinks for one second that he can command ticket prices of $5,000 for his upcoming tour, well then this extra from theContinue reading “Your Guess is as Good as Mine”
That Explains It
So that joke of a Supreme Court, supposedly an unbiased branch of our crumbling democracy, actually struck down some of the president’s tariffs and he’s not happy about it. Not one bit. So now, he’s closing his eyes and shooting. Everybody gets a tariff. 10% until he can think of a dumber move to make.Continue reading “That Explains It”
The State of the Union
We have to wait four more days until the windy one gives the 2026 State of the Union address. It stands to be the shortest political speech in history. I can envision it now: he limps up to the podium on his cankles, opens up his speech. Looks directly into the camera and utters aContinue reading “The State of the Union”
Crazy You Should Mention That
The political landscape in this country is a crumbling, unstable vestige of a democracy with entitled, crepe paper-skinned old buzzards aging out and turning senile before the eyes of the world. No wonder the newer generations have such a nihilistic view of the world. I would much rather see suicide rates go through the roofContinue reading “Crazy You Should Mention That”
A One…And a Two…
So what do you do if your kid spends all their time on their phone and the rest of the time on their computer? Take your pick: Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok. All day long. All night long. Somebody’s got to shoulder the blame for the crappy job of parenting. Certainly not the parents. Sue theContinue reading “A One…And a Two…”
