I woke up this morning with the worst throat cold ever, but I couldn’t blow off practice, so I showed up anyway. Just my (our) luck. I have been madly, vainly, searching for a drummer to hook up with us and complete the band. So not one, or two, but three potential drummer-bandmates have askedContinue reading “Post #800!”

Act Like You’ve Been There
I’m really getting tired of the Blue news and how the different newscasters carry that same smug nod-nod-wink-wink salacious bullshit attitude as if they had anything to do with anything. Instead of mobilizing to accomplish something of merit, they are content to keep fanning the flames of revolution. The thing is, there aren’t enough peopleContinue reading “Act Like You’ve Been There”
Oh Joy!
Baldy Pooty-Poot-Putin is having to impose a mandatory draft on hundreds of thousands of his people to use as human fodder on the Ukrainian front. The female Russian medics sent to the front lines have it worse. They are being sexually abused and passed around by officers for their personal satisfaction. Trump says he “feelsContinue reading “Oh Joy!”
I Take it All Back
My mad editing skills. You can’t see it, but I am in my Marchus Rashford #10 shirt for the Big Match. I wrote a blog about loyalty over a year ago, and I should have listened to myself, if that is even possible. I was questioning my favorite football club, the Manchester United Red Devils.Continue reading “I Take it All Back”
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”
Checking In
A weather balloon. Right. Now it’s just debris, but why did it take so long for the bubbleheads in our Defense Department to shoot it down? And why is a mere weather balloon the size of a football field? Must be a whole lot of data it is collecting. Even an old country boy likeContinue reading “Checking In”
I Thought I Heard it All
Keystone. Car 54 Where are you? Uvalde. The police shot and killed a double amputee. Not the athletic, mobile type running on two prosthetic limbs. No. Stumps. He was trying to run away on his stumps. They caught him by walking. He did, however, have a butcher knife he was wielding, so, according to theContinue reading “I Thought I Heard it All”
One More Reason..
I don’t live in Alaska—I do not want to die of a polar bear attack. Unfortunately, a mother and her one-year old baby had to pay the price for man’s encroachment on polar bears, eliminating fruitful lands and driving the bears to find food wherever they can find it. They found this particular bear andContinue reading “One More Reason..”
Oh Me of Little Faith
I woke up late and missed the first five minutes of the Derby—Manchester United hosting our rivals Manchester City. The Reds actually started out quite smoothly, and, although I was hoping for a loss, albeit a CLOSE loss to the powder blues, I just have seen enough games of City to see firsthand the unrivalledContinue reading “Oh Me of Little Faith”
Rivals
Our first rival usually shows up as soon as we are old enough to socialize with other kids. Almost always, you can bet that a girl is involved. As we grow older and ascend the educational hierarchy, we form rivals in just about everything: there’s the quiet boy in Chemistry that has a 97 average,Continue reading “Rivals”
