Innocence Lost

When I was a young man, I carried the mindset of a wide-eyed child, marveling at everything this amazing world has to offer. I was always treated well no matter which country I was in, so I thought nice, welcoming people were the norm. Right. Three thieves break into a house. One injured and arrested.Continue reading “Innocence Lost”

Never in a Million Years

Marjorie Taylor Greene is right. There are only two genders. Everything else is a contrivance. There are many derivatives, identifications, and permutations, but there is male and female. Eso es. But that being said, everything else that spills out of her diseased mind is horseshit. So United Airlines is seating window-seat passengers and it hasContinue reading “Never in a Million Years”

It’s Better to Burn Out…

Sing it Neil. I’m approaching having spent seven full decades of time on this planet, so it seems like every couple of years one of my life influences/heroes are leaving this sphere of existence. It used to be every decade or so, but lately that time gap is shortening. The more things change… Another MiddleContinue reading “It’s Better to Burn Out…”

Who Cares?

As I approach the last fifteen years of my life, I can not only see my own ticket being punched, but I will leave with a hope for the future of all species. I remember being so caught up in idealism and truth that it led me to pursue pre-law in my first college experience.Continue reading “Who Cares?”

Just Once

I want to see stupid tourists endure instant karma and ignore the barriers, jump the fences and hop onto a rock formation that cracks and sends them to a crushing death below. But that’s just me. Is it me, or did it take about fifty less elections to get rid of that lame-ass KMac? IContinue reading “Just Once”

What’s Next?

Artificial Intelligence. Although if you queried the Domestic Despot, she would offer that she has been living with artificial intelligence since we moved in together into a tiny studio apartment in the foothills of Santa Barbara in 1986. What I want to know is why, all of a sudden, are we inundated with idiot politiciansContinue reading “What’s Next?”

A Teaser

In my taking-me-forever first novel If Only…I share my view of our nation with women the dominant gender in the world. And so for my wife, the Domestic Despot who thinks I’m just sitting here at my desk getting stoned all day, here is what I have so far: The Red Manse 0600 hrs.          Continue reading “A Teaser”

Grey Divorce

I had no idea what that even was until some family members we have are going through issues after forty years. Forty years. I don’t have a clue about the new ways of going about getting married, as I was one of those saps that did the whole “struck by a thunderbolt” thing when IContinue reading “Grey Divorce”

Le Dans Macabre

More than five-hundred mass shootings in The Greatest Country on Earth….. So far. What a tragedy. A beautiful 440-lb. brown bear was euthanized because human swine, deserving of loss of life, decided they were obviously raised by bovine grandparents and simian parents and had to throw out their trash and garbage uncovered and littered throughoutContinue reading “Le Dans Macabre”

Riddle Me This

Is Elon Musk the biggest douchebag on planet Earth? I mean, he’s either this brilliant business icon/madman capable of great invention, or the biggest douchebag on planet Earth. There is no middle ground. But hey, this is America. Why can’t he be both? Since this Cavalcante fellow has eluded the Keystone Cops, er I meanContinue reading “Riddle Me This”
