Bandwagon jumpers, johhny-come-latelys, whatever you want to call them, I don’t like them. There is something to be said about staying loyal to well, anything, rather than place your allegiance based on a team’s winning percentage at the moment. I actually switched my fanship long ago from the geographically convenient Los Angeles Rams to differentContinue reading “Front Runners”

Saving
If I have a goal, such as buying real estate or an expensive trip, or something tangible, I can save with no problems. Now. In my youth, as soon as I had a penny in my pocket, it was gone. I helped keep theAmerican economy flowing. My money wasn’t in my pockets, or my wallet,Continue reading “Saving”
No Picnic
As promised, my short story Mexican Vacation: Mexican Vacation Dave lay perfectly still on the cool adobe floor. He kept his eyes shut and listened to the infected rats shuffling across his cell. He could hear the screams of the former occupants of this six-by-six hell hole. In Spanish or English, it didn’t matter;Continue reading “No Picnic”
Moving Right Along
The Domestic Despot just kicked my chair, almost knocking me over. All I said was “Is there anything hotter than a Ukrainian woman with bright red lipstick holding an AK-47?” Evidently I’m sexist. I’m playing an open mic tonight at the Lucky Star Brewery again. The lady I referred to in a previous post calledContinue reading “Moving Right Along”
Does a Bear S*** in the Woods?
I think bears are so cool… From a distance. One of the scariest things I have ever seen on the internet was a story showing (supposedly) the last sight a person had who died right after. It showed an angry (of course it would have to be angry wouldn’t it dumbass?) bear ripping open aContinue reading “Does a Bear S*** in the Woods?”
I Promised and I Delivered
When I set about writing my first book EMOTIONS: Not your Mama’s ABC’s! I started reading every short story I could get my hands on. I was looking to find the average amount of pages it took to tell a great story. I originally put over 30 stories into under 100 pages. Each story willContinue reading “I Promised and I Delivered”
Excerpt From my Book
In my compendium of short and short-short stories, EMOTIONS: Not your Mama’s ABC’s, I pick different selections which are a totally new genre in that my stories elicit maximum emotional impact using an economy of words. One example is the very first story in the book titled My Furry Friend. My Furry Friend HeContinue reading “Excerpt From my Book”
I Really Hope There is a Hell
If for no other reason than to have a bad place to end up for breaking man and God’s Law so those of us who do play by the rules won’t feel cheated. My list is succinct and 100% accurate. And if you haven’t figured it out yet, I am totally full of shit. ButContinue reading “I Really Hope There is a Hell”
I Was Just Talking About Payouts
…and the ho-hum nature of the cost of mankind’s destruction of our planet. Just another expense to be amortized. Who sets the number for Earth’s useful life? How about those whacky Dallas Cowboys and their antics in the women’s locker room for the cheerleaders? Payout. 2.4 million. That’s not even high school stuff, hell, IContinue reading “I Was Just Talking About Payouts”
Hate
What is it with the ease that everyone tosses around this terrible term? I mean it used to be, (and here I go sounding one hundred years old again) that if someone started a sentence with “You know what I really hate…” you would lean in to hear this travesty, because not liking something wasContinue reading “Hate”
