The tiny monarchy of Sweida, formerly known as Swaziland, is located near the southern Syrian border. Not your typical garden spot and not only that, but reports describe “extrajudicial killings, torture, abductions, and looting—pointing to a broader pattern of targeted abuses.” Perfect. Now we know where we can reach our next batch of deportees. HeContinue reading “Stay With Me”

Grab Your Ankles
Showing they are indeed the Beverly Hillbillies of the world, those wacky French want to swim in the sewer that is, and always has been since the French Industrial Revolution, the Seine River. They ended up opening the river for public swimming on Saturday and shut it back down in exactly ONE day. Oops toContinue reading “Grab Your Ankles”
No News is Good News
So we have plenty of news. I guess flying under the radar is the fact that we are bombing Iran’s nuclear facilities. Now I understand that kind of frivolity if you are 98 years old and dying by the minute, and you are fine with calling it a day. But for the rest of us,Continue reading “No News is Good News”
They Did it Again
The American people are amazing. Just when my faith in us was starting to wane, they absolutely humiliate the Republicans and their Man Who Would Be King. Think about it. From all the pictures I saw, it looked like there were many more people IN the parade than actually bothered to show up for it.Continue reading “They Did it Again”
That’s More Like It
A sixty-five year old American dumbass thought he’d be cute and carve his name into a sacred Japanese temple pillar. I hope they give the idiot the maximum three years in prison to think about what a dumbass he is. You can’t win ‘em all, Disney. Mixed in with your mega box office hits areContinue reading “That’s More Like It”
And the Beat Goes On…
The president has ordered the release of the over 100,000 previously-classified government documents related to the assassination of former President John F. Kennedy. Do we really want to know? I don’t understand the logic or strategy behind such a move. Stay tuned… Those of you Trump sycophants who elected him king, do not act shockedContinue reading “And the Beat Goes On…”
When Push Comes to Shove
Now that I am a retiree I look at the statistics for people filing in the United States for unemployment benefits is somewhere around 200,000 to 250,000 per week. Is it me, or does that number seem high to you? I know, huh? And political analysts refer to it as a “sturdy” labor market. GoingContinue reading “When Push Comes to Shove”
Shooting the Breeze
Stop posting those dumbass stories about which breed of dogs go best with kids or families or this or that. ALL dogs are great with infants, kids, families, and even when your kids are still a barnacle on your underside as they find their way through the rocky seas of life. The best amusement parkContinue reading “Shooting the Breeze”
Still Worth It?
You have to wonder. Our borders have been open to immigrants from all over the world, and I always thought, their own country must be really bad if they want to come here. They might want to think twice now. The president signed an Executive Order getting the infamous facility at Guantanamo prepped for certainContinue reading “Still Worth It?”
Legally Speaking
Just when I was starting to think our justice system had lost its balls, they dole out a whopping four-month sentence to another one of Trump’s sycophants. This is the guy (Steve Bannon) who told you to shove your subpoenas up your ass. I’m sure if he ever sees the inside of a prison, itContinue reading “Legally Speaking”
