She wanted to be famous. Now ol’ what’s-her-name from Tempe, Arizona (my old stomping grounds) is pushing up cacti. Dead in her teens. Thanks once again goes to TikTok. In this corner, weighing (according to himself) a svelte 180 pounds of all muscle, is the president of the United States. In this corner, outweighed byContinue reading “The Way of the World”

As I Was Saying…
Between the countries that we have been banned, or encouraged not to travel to, and the countries that are banning their citizens from visiting us, it just looks a whole lot easier to stay home, have a few cool ones, relax, and shoot the first person who makes a noise outside your front door. jk.Continue reading “As I Was Saying…”
The Oracle
Don’t think too highly of myself, do I? With my birth month and Mother’s Day in our rear-view mirrors, a North Carolina woman says hold everything…. She gets called in to her daughters’ school because of an alleged fighting situation which needed to be addressed immediately. So what does next years’ Mother of the YearContinue reading “The Oracle”
No Misgivings…
There is no excuse whatsoever, for baking your child to death in your hot car as you sit in the cool air-conditioned bar knocking a few back with friends. No worries. Trump will probably pardon them. Speaking of DJT, some judge is preventing him from taking over the Department of Education. What, I ask is,Continue reading “No Misgivings…”
Kings and Dumbasses
Some dumbass in Oklahoma (where else?) is being put to death thirteen years after he set a “beloved” grandmother on fire. Jeez. I wonder what he’d do if he really, really loved her? Dumbass Thomas David Carruth, a 64-year old former judge, will sit in jail for the next two years as part of hisContinue reading “Kings and Dumbasses”
That’s It!
To quote the great navigator Popeye, “That’s all I can stands, I can’t stands no more!” Ruben Amorim must go. Manchester United looked like a bunch of aimless idiots against Tottenham, a team that has somehow managed less points than the Red Devils in the Premier League. If the league season were a few matchesContinue reading “That’s It!”
Come and Get It
Equipment failure. Passenger issues. Pilot error. Kind of makes me glad I don’t fly anywhere anymore. Way too much drama, and before you ask, the answer is “hell no!” if you want me to give up my 1st class seat. For ANY reason, unless you happen to be holding a gun on me. A newContinue reading “Come and Get It”
I Don’t Get It
Eighteen years old and getting ready to attend high school prom. No prom. Shot in the back. Dead. The kids who were with him said that they were just “playing a prank” in an attempt to get some views on TikTok. Oh, I get it. Haha. Details. Yes, by all means, DO sweat the smallContinue reading “I Don’t Get It”
Move Along
Nothing to see here. Except maybe Steph Curry doing things that only he can as the Golden State Warriors go into Houston and take down the scrappy Rockets in game seven of their Western Conference playoff series. Or Caitlin Clark launching (nothing but net) logo three-pointers as thousands of little girls watch on. I absolutelyContinue reading “Move Along”
Without Fail
No matter how great you think you are, there is always someone, somewhere out there, who is better. I saw it a lot of it growing up as I started competitive tackle football at age seven. I would have started at age six, but I was caught trying to forge my parents’ signatures on theContinue reading “Without Fail”
