And I’m sure it would be found abhorrent to one of todays’ tech-savvy kids, but I remember in Bossier City, Louisiana in the mid-sixties, I was attending an elementary school. On the school bus home after classes ended, the entire bus would sing songs! I remember “Red Roses for a Blue Lady, Birds and theContinue reading “I Know it Sounds Corny…”

No News
Here’s a thought. How about we go to weekly newscasts? Think about it. What changes from day-to-day? The same hatreds (maybe a few new ones even), the same prejudices (maybe a few new ones even). I don’t need a morning caucus of chowderheads like that Dilton Doily-looking dumbass Joe. Talk about an egomaniacal misogynist. LetContinue reading “No News”
Of All the Ways…
Mass killing. Guns. Knives. Bombs. Virus. Mosquitoes. Mosquitoes? There are forty-three less hikers in Colorado alone this year that would LOVE to beg to differ, but they can’t. They’re dead. Done in by mosquitoes. In 1966, under the summer lights of our Little League baseball games, I would stand in center field where the brightestContinue reading “Of All the Ways…”
Stick to What You Know
The Wall Street Journal, that venerable financial tool, is reporting that the Israeli military is having to enter densely-populated urban areas in their war effort. Genius. I am sure if the Hamas murderers were out in the desert somewhere, the headline would change. What a bunch of pencil-necked numbers crunchers. You won’t see any ofContinue reading “Stick to What You Know”
Innocence Lost
When I was a young man, I carried the mindset of a wide-eyed child, marveling at everything this amazing world has to offer. I was always treated well no matter which country I was in, so I thought nice, welcoming people were the norm. Right. Three thieves break into a house. One injured and arrested.Continue reading “Innocence Lost”
Never in a Million Years
Marjorie Taylor Greene is right. There are only two genders. Everything else is a contrivance. There are many derivatives, identifications, and permutations, but there is male and female. Eso es. But that being said, everything else that spills out of her diseased mind is horseshit. So United Airlines is seating window-seat passengers and it hasContinue reading “Never in a Million Years”
It’s Better to Burn Out…
Sing it Neil. I’m approaching having spent seven full decades of time on this planet, so it seems like every couple of years one of my life influences/heroes are leaving this sphere of existence. It used to be every decade or so, but lately that time gap is shortening. The more things change… Another MiddleContinue reading “It’s Better to Burn Out…”
Who Cares?
As I approach the last fifteen years of my life, I can not only see my own ticket being punched, but I will leave with a hope for the future of all species. I remember being so caught up in idealism and truth that it led me to pursue pre-law in my first college experience.Continue reading “Who Cares?”
What’s Next?
Artificial Intelligence. Although if you queried the Domestic Despot, she would offer that she has been living with artificial intelligence since we moved in together into a tiny studio apartment in the foothills of Santa Barbara in 1986. What I want to know is why, all of a sudden, are we inundated with idiot politiciansContinue reading “What’s Next?”
Riddle Me This
Is Elon Musk the biggest douchebag on planet Earth? I mean, he’s either this brilliant business icon/madman capable of great invention, or the biggest douchebag on planet Earth. There is no middle ground. But hey, this is America. Why can’t he be both? Since this Cavalcante fellow has eluded the Keystone Cops, er I meanContinue reading “Riddle Me This”
