Take a Hike

So it’s not just arrogant Americans… Australia has its share of dumbasses who have no respect for nature or the planet on which we dwell. Don’t they have a clue what “protected” forests are? People like them should leave our ecosystem. They are just taking up good oxygen that a tree or bush could beContinue reading “Take a Hike”

If This Don’t Beat All

Some douchebag gets in his car and mows down 23 people in East Hollywood, CA. When things like this happen, I always wonder what reason could they possibly have to commit such a crime? At least he has a good reason this time. He got thrown out of a club, got his ass whipped, andContinue reading “If This Don’t Beat All”

Table Scraps

Iran just made another nuclear threat. Ho-hum. The new Ayatollah of Rock-n-rolla Khamenei says “something big” will happen in retaliation for another U.S. or Israeli strike against his country. I remember the days when we would instantly laugh and discount such threats as empty, but not after 9/11. That bald little lawn gnome Putin threwContinue reading “Table Scraps”

The Latest Buzz

That bald little lawn gnome Vladimir Putin keeps making the president mad, and every time he does, off goes another shipment of weapons and other objects of death to Ukraine, so I might just be an old country boy, but I think Putin was incorrect saying Russia would end the war “in three weeks.” Don’tContinue reading “The Latest Buzz”

I’ll Take Mine Rare

“Experts” warn of a dangerous shift in societal norms. Experts? If you are so expert, why are you just now noticing this “dangerous shift?” Hell, it’s been going on since 1/6/2024. Or are you too “expert” to notice? Douchebags. Watching Italian Janik Sinner whip Carlos Alcaraz in the Wimbledon’s Men’s Singles Tennis Championship was aContinue reading “I’ll Take Mine Rare”

Alright Already!

Our president has made an unpopular move and I happen to agree with him on this. What’s the big deal about him proposing a bill for voters to show proof of U.S. citizenship? That is the minimum requirement you need to vote to have your voice count in the American voting process. You can’t justContinue reading “Alright Already!”

Here it Comes…

Since I am a big fan of survival movies, I was flicking through the film selections on the tube and I saw a movie from 2015 which was simply titled Everest. I was a huge fan of Vertical Limit so I figured I would check this movie out. It wasn’t bad and I would readilyContinue reading “Here it Comes…”

Baby its Cold Outside…

But it’s freezing in your heart. To quote a great songwriter (me). We got about eight inches of snow in the last 24 hours and its still coming down at noon EST. My two doggies, Arizona weather-weenies, are none too pleased. So, I’m checking out the news which I have not visited in some timeContinue reading “Baby its Cold Outside…”

Don’t Forget Dessert

As Executive Chef in fine dining establishments in the eighties and nineties, I witnessed firsthand the changing landscape from the traditional (classic) dishes to the new, colorful platescapes that overzealous chefs, with their squeeze bottles in hand, chose to paint like graffiti artists. I liked SOME of the new look plates, and I was oneContinue reading “Don’t Forget Dessert”

Innocence Lost

When I was a young man, I carried the mindset of a wide-eyed child, marveling at everything this amazing world has to offer. I was always treated well no matter which country I was in, so I thought nice, welcoming people were the norm. Right. Three thieves break into a house. One injured and arrested.Continue reading “Innocence Lost”
