I’m not talking about the Super Bowl; it was very close and the game lived up to all the hype for a change. As a matter of fact, since I did not have a horse in the race, so to speak, I was going to be content just watching a competitive game. What a game!Continue reading “Not Even Close”

Yet Another Sign
That we are losing it. Netherlands is proposing a ban on smoking weed outside in the red light district That’s like trying to ban drinking at Mardi Gras. It was never legally allowed outside in the past, but now it is a big deal. Illegal prostitution was never a problem in Der Wallen, as theContinue reading “Yet Another Sign”
My Three Cents
If you saw my blog yesterday, I need to take some of my own medicine. Just when I proclaimed that our lawmakers in Congress would never come together on anything, that they were too divisive to get anything done, they pass a bill by a vote tally of 419-0. There’s a reason I am notContinue reading “My Three Cents”
STFU
If you’ve got a name like Huckabee, really, you need to STFU. If you are a politician, be that Red or Blue, if you have nothing constructive to say, STFU. You look like fifty pounds of shit in a twenty-five pound bag, so put down the fork, then we’ll discuss politics. There once was aContinue reading “STFU”
Maddogg’s State of the Union Review
I watched JoJo’s speech tonight and of course, I have some thoughts on it. 1—There’s got to be some age restrictions imposed on all the old whitehairs running our government. 2—That ancient Bernie Sanders really wanted to make sure he stood out from everyone in the building, so he was the only one who woreContinue reading “Maddogg’s State of the Union Review”
Is That Still a Thing?
I got a glimpse of Madonna at tonight’s Grammy Awards. Yikes! There comes a time when icons need to go the Dietrich route and stay out of the public eye. From what I could see, today’s women are reverting back to the “let-it-all-hang-out generation Why are girls still trying to look like Jessica Rabbit? TheyContinue reading “Is That Still a Thing?”
Checking In
A weather balloon. Right. Now it’s just debris, but why did it take so long for the bubbleheads in our Defense Department to shoot it down? And why is a mere weather balloon the size of a football field? Must be a whole lot of data it is collecting. Even an old country boy likeContinue reading “Checking In”
I Thought I Heard it All
Keystone. Car 54 Where are you? Uvalde. The police shot and killed a double amputee. Not the athletic, mobile type running on two prosthetic limbs. No. Stumps. He was trying to run away on his stumps. They caught him by walking. He did, however, have a butcher knife he was wielding, so, according to theContinue reading “I Thought I Heard it All”
Second Chances
Not everybody deserves them. Murderers should die the same way they killed. Thieves should have to pay back ten times what they stole at whatever rate they pay working prisoners per license plate, or whatever. If it starts to take ten years prison time to start paying back small fines, criminals may think twice. NoContinue reading “Second Chances”
Did I Hear That Right?
The Memphis Police Department, embroiled in the murder of one of its citizens they took an oath to serve and protect, has decided they will simply stop racial profiling. Simple. Who knew it would be that easy? Saying they will stop racial profiling is the same as making a recipe for a cake that requiresContinue reading “Did I Hear That Right?”
