All Over It
No News is Good News
So we have plenty of news. I guess flying under the radar is the fact that we are bombing Iran’s nuclear facilities. Now I understand that kind of frivolity if you are 98 years old and dying by the minute, and you are fine with calling it a day. But for the rest of us,Continue reading “No News is Good News”

And the Beat Goes On…
The president has ordered the release of the over 100,000 previously-classified government documents related to the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy. Do we really want to know? I don’t understand the logic or strategy behind such a move. Stay tuned… Those of you Trump sycophants who elected him king, do not act shockedContinue reading “And the Beat Goes On…”
