That nerdy little gamer son of yours now has another potential conduit for his gaming ”skills.” Military drone operator. Except these aren’t little electronic dots and blips he’s dealing with; these are real bombs killing real people. Real bombs bombing real hospitals and schools. If they are great gamers, they will be great at killingContinue reading “Hold On”

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”
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…”
The Long and Short of it
More decisions coming from the NCAA College Football Playoff Committee as they face the legal issues arising in Athens, Georgia with two star football players just arrested. You have to remember, these aren’t wide-eyed, unsuspecting college students we’re talking about. Not anymore. They are adults making millions and hundreds of thousands of dollars in NILContinue reading “The Long and Short of it”
‘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”
Once Again, I Eat My Words
Not in a million years!” “Not in my lifetime!” “No one can be that stupid!” The beauty of this administration (just like the last one) are the many targets I get to pick on and have fun with. Like the “war” declared by President Trump on drug cartels, aka hostile terrorist organizations. I believe it’sContinue reading “Once Again, I Eat My Words”
The Lowdown
Sixteen years old and his life is over… Desmond Holly shot and wounded two students at his high school in Evergreen, Colorado before turning the gun on himself, ending his life and continuing the “tradition” of school shootings, the thirteenth going back to Columbine in 1999. Money scandals in high school athletics were nonexistent (orContinue reading “The Lowdown”
All the Same to Me
How’s that expression go about poking a bear? The official Black Lives Matter Instagram account has posted a video clip that appears to propose violence as a solution in response to the recent murder of a pizza worker in Charlotte, North Carolina. And she’s not even black. Do you think that wild animals being heldContinue reading “All the Same to Me”
Afterthoughts II
Our high schoolers are continuing the slide down the educational ladder, as their scores drop to a new low. Who needs silly old education anyway? People keep reporting Trump is dead, but really, he just looks that way. Newsweek is reporting Gen Z is experiencing “a drop in life satisfaction.” Darn. I was hoping toContinue reading “Afterthoughts II”
