Royal Misconceptions

Even my buddies the British don’t believe in any of the old royal concepts as they relate to the human condition in the 21st century. Not anymore. They have cell phones. Ordained? By whom? A God that nobody can agree on? And while all the attention has been focused on our horny old president, theContinue reading “Royal Misconceptions”

Presto! Change-o!

If only it were that simple. Not quite the Boston Tea Party, but it’s a start. Some anti-ICE protesters took over a hotel lobby in New York City to protest their housing of federal ICE agents. I’m sure the student working part-time on the reservation desk didn’t make the policy. Or the night maintenance guy.Continue reading “Presto! Change-o!”

Who Ya Gonna Believe?

That venerable French museum The Louvre is raising its admission price by 45%. To go packed like sardines and look at old stuff. Don’t get me wrong; I love museums and I have been fortunate enough to visit several of the world’s greatest. But what can they be escalating prices for? Are they adding moreContinue reading “Who Ya Gonna Believe?”

If I’ve Told You Once…

Hey Meta! Hey dumbass! STFU and quit having an artificial entity run your life. Think for yourself! It’s tough enough living in America today, but can you imagine how nice it must be to be an American citizen in Venezuela right now? Talk about persona non grata. The whole transgenders-in-sports debate is back in theContinue reading “If I’ve Told You Once…”

Playing Dirty

I have previously chronicled the beginning and end of my big-time criminal career in a post from several years ago titled The Great Classroom Caper of 1962 and I can (and have) ranted about how much I hate thieves. There is something so primal about taking something that doesn’t belong to you, and I thinkContinue reading “Playing Dirty”

Here Today, Here Tomorrow

The president has proposed term limits for politicians: Six years for House of Representatives. Twelve years for Senators. He mentioned ‘nary a word on term limits for the presidency… Lane Kiffin, highly regarded as an offensive strategist in college football, has also sown his seeds of discontent. Just ask USC. Tennessee. Mississippi. Is LSU hisContinue reading “Here Today, Here Tomorrow”

‘Tis the Season

Everybody looking for dirt on the president due to his past association with Jeffrey Epstein and all this time it was the horny British royals don’t ya know? “Don’t lend them any money.” That’s what I used to tell someone when speaking about a soon-to-be-ex-employee. With the unspoken because they won’t be around long enoughContinue reading “‘Tis the Season”

Playoffs?

Playoffs?! Playoffs?! Playoffs?!!! Yes, they are inching closer… Excruciatingly slow for college football fans and even more slowly if your team or teams is/are still in contention for one of the coveted 12 available spots. There are very few certainties anymore in the college football world where champions are bought and sold like prized cattleContinue reading “Playoffs?”

Funny Bone

Why all the hate between late-night talk show hosts and the president and his policies and tactics? It used to be, not that long ago, that comics joked and made wisecracks, we laughed, thought how clever, and moved on. What happened to that? These are just highly paid entertainers that started amusing us starting inContinue reading “Funny Bone”

My Book in Audio

A couple years ago I wrote this book whilst sitting around, getting stoned, and reminiscing about this wild ride I have been on since the year 1954. I have always enjoyed short and powerful as opposed to long and flowery, although in good writing, there is room for every genre. So what I did wasContinue reading “My Book in Audio”
