More than five-hundred mass shootings in The Greatest Country on Earth….. So far. What a tragedy. A beautiful 440-lb. brown bear was euthanized because human swine, deserving of loss of life, decided they were obviously raised by bovine grandparents and simian parents and had to throw out their trash and garbage uncovered and littered throughoutContinue reading “Le Dans Macabre”

Still Not Ready
I predicted it before the misguided advertising campaign of Anheuser-Busch which has led to the death of Bud Light. In the haste to be open, inclusive, and in an effort to improve the species, SOME true believers are swaying others with much less conviction, to confront, and more importantly, accept concepts they do not completelyContinue reading “Still Not Ready”
Just Don’t
Sage advice indeed. When you see a small animal in the wild in need of help, you naturally want to pick them up and hold them in a sign of affection. Just don’t. You have taken them away from their natural family and ensured they will never again be able to live free like theyContinue reading “Just Don’t”
Where Did My Appetite Go?
There is irrefutable evidence that I had one; I didn’t get up to 275 pounds at one point by going on the Gandhi diet. No, I earned my stripes honestly. Consider a typical working day of a French Chef (me): 4am Wake up (or stay awake from night before). Do several wake-me-up lines of cocaineContinue reading “Where Did My Appetite Go?”
Just Sayin’
The first story that catches my eye was about how a person was denied a position by a recruiter because she wanted to negotiate their salary. What’s the problem? At the height of my career as an Executive Chef, I was recruited by TGI Fridays to be their Corporate Chef down in Texas. The recruiterContinue reading “Just Sayin’”
What Have I Missed?
An English football club just won the insanely-difficult treble; they won the Premier League, the FA Cup, and now, the crowning Champions’ League. At least a Manchester team won, just not my Manchester team. Maybe next year for my Red Devils. I always swear off even looking at the website, but inevitably have to findContinue reading “What Have I Missed?”
Who’s to Blame?
Everyone does it. Not many people are evolved enough to go through life without blaming someone or something. For the most part, I am good with my spot on the totem pole of athletes. Nowhere near the top, but also no way near the bottom, either. When you combine a fierce resolve to win withContinue reading “Who’s to Blame?”
My Three Cents
If you saw my blog yesterday, I need to take some of my own medicine. Just when I proclaimed that our lawmakers in Congress would never come together on anything, that they were too divisive to get anything done, they pass a bill by a vote tally of 419-0. There’s a reason I am notContinue reading “My Three Cents”
I Can’t Resist
A twenty-seven year old woodworking teacher in Missouri was arrested for having sex with a sixteen year old student. Her picture is not horrible, and I am sure with a ton of makeup, a push-up bra, and the right conditions, she could be every horny sixteen year-old’s dream girl. To all his buddies he isContinue reading “I Can’t Resist”
Equality
You asked for it, you got it. Amber McLaughlin. In an episode right out of Criminal Minds, a funeral home owner was making a tidy profit by dismembering corpses and selling off their body parts. In another episode right out of Criminal Minds, a woman is killed when a rogue wave hit a cruise ship.Continue reading “Equality”
