In a Pig’s Eye

Where did that expression come from? I’ll bet it was someone who lived in a rural setting. Pure genius is what that is. In the latest “It will never happen to us” situation: It happened. ICE agent or not, if you, or any member of your family is in this country illegally, you will beContinue reading “In a Pig’s Eye”

Run to the Light

Ford Motor Company recently closed a production facility due to “shortages” of key components. With the past 25% tariff being thrown out the window, I highly doubt the new replacement 67% tariff is going to stir China to give us all the semiconductors and rare earth minerals that we need. Both are necessary and crucialContinue reading “Run to the Light”

Another Day in the Life

Happy 4th of July. Now you are dead. In your teens. Mass shootings in Indianapolis and Chicago are just a few of the ways we Americans like to celebrate our Day of Independence. Alligator Alcatraz. I understand the logic. Take your chances with the crocodiles and pythons or get your skin bleached, dress up likeContinue reading “Another Day in the Life”

Pearls of Wisdom

Some dumbass Egyptian should be thanking his lucky stars because he kicked a police service dog at an airport and all they did was send his stupid ass back to Egypt. Try kicking one of my dogs… The Latino community in Florida who voted for Trump feel “betrayed” by the president’s immigration policy and deportationContinue reading “Pearls of Wisdom”

The Hits Just Keep on Coming

Just when I thought I’d heard it all, I read about a guy in South Carolina who is trying to avoid justice by claiming he is a “sovereign citizen” and therefore not answerable to any court of law in the United States. Well, he is somewhat answerable. He’s been sitting on Death Row and theyContinue reading “The Hits Just Keep on Coming”

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”

Around the World

Raise your hand if you feel sorry for any of the multibillionaires that were making hundreds of millions and now are suffering temporary setbacks. Yeah, me neither. The Show-me state seems to still have one foot stuck in the Wild West as they debate a bill that would place a $1000.00 per head bounty forContinue reading “Around the World”

Hold On!

I am always the first to find fault when it comes to my medications, but I must give a shout out when there is a substantially better product that fully addresses my needs, including the most important: perception of value. I speak of the 1/2 oz. of First Class Funk, a hybrid strain packing aContinue reading “Hold On!”

Hold On!

Every time I turn around, Trump has signed another bill or made another proposal, or has even reached out to everybody and his brother for a conference. WTF? He didn’t do this much in the entire four years of his first presidency. I want to think that is a good thing, but part of meContinue reading “Hold On!”

Turn the Page (again)

It’s been five days since my Irish got whipped by the Ohio State Buckeyes in the national championship game. And contrary to popular belief in South Bend, the sun did indeed rise today. My boys did me proud, but there was no mistake they were beaten by a bigger, stronger, and faster team. Good coachingContinue reading “Turn the Page (again)”
