It doesn’t happen quite as much anymore, but I still find myself undergoing the silent treatment and the slow burn, even after I wisely, preemptively, apologize. I don’t take nearly as long as I used to delivering my mea culpa. That’s just wasted time. When I am wrong, I’m wrong. It only took most ofContinue reading “In The Doghouse (again)”

Don’t Get Me Started
Anyone who abandons their pets has forfeited their eternal soul to a fiery hell. And if I had any say in it, that would just be for starters. I understand that life can make it painfully necessary for some to have to surrender their furry friends, but surrender does not mean you open your carContinue reading “Don’t Get Me Started”
A Flock of Sparrows
Oh, I would like to think that we were eagles soaring high and free, but we were not. I speak very fondly of the time I spent traveling the country with my dog Chopper in an old ’65 Ford pickup I bought off my brother. It started out as just myself and my German ShorthairedContinue reading “A Flock of Sparrows”
My Take
The blurb said, “The collapse of Kamala Harris.” Collapse from what? Amidst all the shootings, the gay-bashing, and the racist police, she is the poster girl example of tokenism. Biden needed her cultural demographics. Period. End of discussion. Nikki Haley declared her candidacy for the presidency, and as soon as he stops licking his balls,Continue reading “My Take”
The Hunt for Red October
A great read by Tom Clancy and so technical that I feel he explains it well enough that I could pull a five-hundred foot long nuclear attack submarine out of dock and head to open sea. Just like in the movie, the Russians have lost a huge nuclear submarine. The headline said they lost it,Continue reading “The Hunt for Red October”
Top Secret
Now Mike Pence, the ex-Vice President, has boxes of top secret documents that he had no idea were in his possession. I know I am a little slow on the uptake, but who the hell is in charge of handing out documents crucial to the well-being of all Americans? If they are giving them toContinue reading “Top Secret”
Better Late?
If you call me up and don’t start speaking within the first five seconds, my ass is gonna hang up on your ass and I will block your number for all-time. Pet peeve? Probably more like a foible. Although I am actually avoiding the Old Man Syndrome where everything irritates you, and that is probablyContinue reading “Better Late?”
Not to My Worst Enemy…
There is nothing in this world that anyone could do to me that would ever set me in motion to cause harm to their pets in retribution. Even if they were to take Karen from me, I wouldn’t be able to do a thing to their animals; Karen would never allow it anyway. But weContinue reading “Not to My Worst Enemy…”
Close Call
So I decide to brave the traffic and the impending Winter Storm of the Century if you believe the forecasters, and headed north on I-75 to the humane society which I represent, and on the way, I spied a new building sitting out on its own. I could see kennels and a large play areaContinue reading “Close Call”
The Word Unspoken…
Is the word uneaten. My big brother taught me that at the tender age of 8. I have always spoken with grace and intellect, and others immediately gravitated towards me because I was confident and loquacious. Especially the shy kids. I don’t sugarcoat the fact that I was very much insulated to the whole ethnicityContinue reading “The Word Unspoken…”
