Ooh, I’m so scared. That little bald Russian lawn gnome Putin is making a whole lot of threats to the United States. Is anyone else frightened at the words of a bungling idiot who can’t even take a small country with no resources? If this failed Ukrainian debacle is any indication, perhaps that little dipshitContinue reading “Shaking in my Boots”

You Didn’t Think We’d Notice?
America has been known as a hotbed of invention and forward-thinking. Here’s two more words for you. Greedy and devious. I think those two words say it all. I go to open a box of Coast soap, and the bar that plopped out was about half the size of the original version bought before someContinue reading “You Didn’t Think We’d Notice?”
Hoosiers
Not only one of the greatest sports stories ever made into film, but here come the Hoosiers of War. Ukraine. Whatever happens from this point on and I can only unfortunately think it will be terrible for the Ukrainians, they have shown that you don’t fuck around with their country. Except in the movie, theContinue reading “Hoosiers”
You Cannot Be Serious!
To quote my favorite spoiled white brat tennis player John McEnroe,it is exactly how I feel when I hear about other stupid things said out loud. Whoopi Goldberg, shut up. I have always loved you as an actress, but denying that the Holocaust was about race is not something you want to say and stillContinue reading “You Cannot Be Serious!”
Cannibalism
Here’s a real Up with Life moment. The painters started today and they are good. Fast, clean, and efficient. I sat in the living room and turned on the telly to kill some time. I put on the headphones and treated myself to the documentary Cannibal Island. Based on one of the most horrifying crimesContinue reading “Cannibalism”
Military Brat
For most of my early life on this planet, I was the step-son of a good military man, my stepfather Vern McConnell. Vern was the consummate father and he was the head of three households when all was said and done. He was a good man who did things the right way. My first memoriesContinue reading “Military Brat”
NIMBY
Here we go again. The global spotlight shines brightly once again on the United States as we stumble all over ourselves and try to find a solution to our growing population. It is not the normal 6% population increase of which I speak. We get there just by waking up in the morning. No, itContinue reading “NIMBY”
One More Time
Today at 10:30 EST I check into the hospital for a very short stay (I hope) as the vascular surgeon will be cleaning out my right corraded artery and putting yet another stent in my beautiful brown body. That makes a total of 9 and three of those were lost to amputation. I know IContinue reading “One More Time”
Wasted Energy
How much energy do we waste in the course of a day? I only ask because I am still hearing of people without power in the wake of Hurricane Ida. Hundreds of thousands of people. And how fucked up is it that people died from running their generators without ventilation? I know I waste aContinue reading “Wasted Energy”
Courage
If you are brave, do you have courage? Not necessarily. You can act brave, but not have the courage of your convictions. You can appear brave and not have courage, well you get the picture. I have done things that look courageous but actually scared the living shit out of me. Stupid stuff, mainly onContinue reading “Courage”
