Put it right up there with heroin, oxycodone, and alcohol. Addicting and sometimes even fatal as Princess Diana found. It turns nobodies into nobodies who think they are somebody. Pitiful. I am not exactly sure when this infatuation with being noticed actually began, but it has to be close to the time of the adventContinue reading “Fame”

The Beginning or the Beginning of the End?
Xi Jinping is sticking his nose where it has no business being again. He is making a peace proposal for the Russian-Ukraine conflict. I am not sure exactly what the details of the Chinaman’s proposal are, but unless they include a complete Russian withdrawal to the borders present one year ago, president Z won’t beContinue reading “The Beginning or the Beginning of the End?”
Raise Your Hand
-If you are sick and tired of kids attacking those charged with trying to make those imbeciles smarter. I say why bother? 17 years on this planet or even one-year in a tough high school qualifies you to be tried as an adult. I don’t want to hear the bleeding hearts talk about a childContinue reading “Raise Your Hand”
The Hunt for Red October
A great read by Tom Clancy and so technical that I feel he explains it well enough that I could pull a five-hundred foot long nuclear attack submarine out of dock and head to open sea. Just like in the movie, the Russians have lost a huge nuclear submarine. The headline said they lost it,Continue reading “The Hunt for Red October”
I Thought I Heard it All
Keystone. Car 54 Where are you? Uvalde. The police shot and killed a double amputee. Not the athletic, mobile type running on two prosthetic limbs. No. Stumps. He was trying to run away on his stumps. They caught him by walking. He did, however, have a butcher knife he was wielding, so, according to theContinue reading “I Thought I Heard it All”
Second Chances
Not everybody deserves them. Murderers should die the same way they killed. Thieves should have to pay back ten times what they stole at whatever rate they pay working prisoners per license plate, or whatever. If it starts to take ten years prison time to start paying back small fines, criminals may think twice. NoContinue reading “Second Chances”
Did I Hear That Right?
The Memphis Police Department, embroiled in the murder of one of its citizens they took an oath to serve and protect, has decided they will simply stop racial profiling. Simple. Who knew it would be that easy? Saying they will stop racial profiling is the same as making a recipe for a cake that requiresContinue reading “Did I Hear That Right?”
Tyre Nichols
By now, the whole world has seen the disgusting video of the beating, er murder, of another innocent black man at the hands of a lynch mob disguised as police officers in the city of Memphis, TN. Man’s inhumanity to man. Not black v. white; no, black on black. Go figure. Like black men don’tContinue reading “Tyre Nichols”
Better Late?
If you call me up and don’t start speaking within the first five seconds, my ass is gonna hang up on your ass and I will block your number for all-time. Pet peeve? Probably more like a foible. Although I am actually avoiding the Old Man Syndrome where everything irritates you, and that is probablyContinue reading “Better Late?”
Just Let Go
Brilliance comes in many forms… As a perk for General Managers, a four-day all-expenses resort stay on the Emerald Coast in Florida. One of the activities was deep-sea fishing. Some deep-sea fisherman hooked a large fish, presumably an Ahi Tuna which can grow up to eight feet and 200 pounds. When I told the DomesticContinue reading “Just Let Go”
