I have been enjoying my wild ride of a life for some seventy-one plus years now, and I still am able to look at the world and its people with the same wonder I had as a child. I wonder how we have made it so long without annihilating each other or making this planetContinue reading “Press the Bet”

If You’re Lucky
A New Low
Just when I thought I’d seen it all, the Mattel toy company giant comes out with a “Type 1 diabetic Barbie.” So does this mark the official “acceptance” that with all the money and resources available to the world’s medical professionals, that they are giving up completely on finding a cure? As evidenced by theirContinue reading “A New Low”
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”
All Over It
Buzzkill
Negative people. Immovable antiquated ideologies. Wasted time. You can kind of understand those people out in the desert who are in a hurry to get to the Ultimate. I mean have you seen that place?

Cry all you want about the economy and the active and impending tariffs, but one good thing to come out of it (well, two actually). 1) people areContinue reading “Pride”
My Dice
I find it really doesn’t blow my dress up at all when I read about how the United States Navy is testing how to launch their aerial death machines faster off aircraft carriers or how the United States Marines have come up with a brand new killing machine. I didn’t know we’ve already taken careContinue reading “My Dice”
Hold On!
Every time I turn around, Trump has signed another bill or made another proposal, or has even reached out to everybody and his brother for a conference. WTF? He didn’t do this much in the entire four years of his first presidency. I want to think that is a good thing, but part of meContinue reading “Hold On!”
Patience, My Ass!
As you may, or may not know, I was not blessed with a plethora of patience. And that was at birth. Now add seventy years’ worth of life on planet Earth, and I have next to zero left in the tank. I’ve always had a hard time with stupidity. Ignorance is hard to find faultContinue reading “Patience, My Ass!”
