Before Time Existed

This is the time before I married my soulmate, or at least that is the way she characterizes it. But somewhere in this void, there was a rapidly-aging young man that had it made: a rich girlfriend with a chip on her shoulder. Kiki. She was a very nice-bodied friend of mine, who, by convenience,Continue reading “Before Time Existed”

Here We Go Again

In this dangerous world, our nation’s defense is Priority One. Or at least it should be. What do you do when you want to attract the best recruits possible to join our naval forces? Lower the standards, of course. The business sector has been doing it forever to attract workers who just don’t want toContinue reading “Here We Go Again”

Wait For It…

I am the very first to admit that, of all the many gifts I have inherited and refined, patience is NOT one of them. Oh, I’ve gotten better, but more often than not, throughout my life, impatience has cost me. I used to be such a stickler for my food quality. Classic French cuisine requiresContinue reading “Wait For It…”

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”

Grey Divorce

I had no idea what that even was until some family members we have are going through issues after forty years. Forty years. I don’t have a clue about the new ways of going about getting married, as I was one of those saps that did the whole “struck by a thunderbolt” thing when IContinue reading “Grey Divorce”

Le Dans Macabre

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”

Initials

We call everything by it’s initials since we are a very lazy society in general. In recent news, SBF was denied bail in NYC for his role in FTX and his fucking over people to the tune of billions of dollars. I bet if you made him turn his hands over, you wouldn’t find aContinue reading “Initials”

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’”
