It is a rainy day in southern Ohio which is one of the reasons it is so green and beautiful once spring and summer hit and I am practicing for an open mic at a popular Dayton pub tomorrow night. We only get a 30-minute timeslot so here are the songs I plan to play:Continue reading “So You’re Telling Me There’s a Chance…”

Don’t Blink
1973. An awesome year and the last time the United States government conscripted young men into our military war machine. A headline read Donald Jr. and Eric Trump “would be exempt from military draft for one key reason…” Could the reason be they are yellow-belly chickenshits like their father who dodged the draft five times?Continue reading “Don’t Blink”
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 Not When…
The article started by saying what Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce had to say about the movie Home Alone. Quite frankly, I could give two shits what he has to say about anything other than why the Chiefs will be watching the playoffs on TV instead of defending their AFC Championship. I wouldContinue reading “If Not When…”
Differences
She has trouble boiling water. I am a starred French Chef She couldn’t tell a lie if she tried. I can. I also know that if my life ever came down to hanging in the balance dependent on Karen lying for me, adios muchachos! Black hair. Blonde hair. Dark brown skin. Pale white shin.

What a World!
Juan Soto, the highly-coveted free agent outfielder from last season’s New York Yankees, has just signed a 760 million dollar contract to play baseball for the New York Mets until the year 2040. Just in case, he also received 75 million just for signing the contract. Are we paying our educators, the individuals responsible forContinue reading “What a World!”
The One That Got Away
We all have one. That one special person, maybe even your very first crush that turned into a boyfriend-girlfriend situation. But then something happened. Life. You moved, they moved, whatever. As a military dependent living with a very ambitious Staff Sergeant in the United States Air Force, we travelled a lot. It was our lastContinue reading “The One That Got Away”
Marijuana
I started smoking pot when I was 14 and a sophomore in high school. It seemed a natural thing to do since I was playing in a hot little rock and roll band and I did not like the smell or taste of tobacco smoke. I thought it was great that I could get aContinue reading “Marijuana”
Going Under Again?
Man, I really hope not. I have been off of my feet completely for about eight weeks now and I go to pick up my prosthetic, supposedly newer, better, molded to my exact measurements, blah blah blah, and I am up on the leg two minutes and that old familiar sting (Hurt); there is fluidContinue reading “Going Under Again?”
Closing Time
Not only an ass-kicking song by Semisonic, but an always-approaching time for us all. The end game. Departure. So why do we waste so much of the precious time we have been allotted on useless horseshit like hatred and fear? And supposedly, we are the most intelligent life form on Earth. Maybe not. AI foundContinue reading “Closing Time”
