Believe me later. My paean to Hanz and Franz and the Saturday Night Live’s fiftieth anniversary. I’m not one of those old fuddy-duddies who dwell in the past and say that the first few seasons of SNL had the best and funniest ensemble casts ever (although they did). I mean, there have been funny peopleContinue reading “Hear Me Now”

Clickbait
I click on way too many of these “stories” and I can’t explain it. I can’t even explain why I can’t take my eyes off the screen as the good-hearted landscaper fixes the old ladies’ overgrown yard, trimming back every weed and perfectly clearing the sidewalks and driveway. But this story said, “Seven words dogsContinue reading “Clickbait”
Welcome to America
Now go home. Now it is Native Americans who fear getting caught in the new aggressive ICE policies. That’s right; the people that were originally here, and whose land we stole, are worried about being thrown out of their stolen country. They should be. It’s not gonna end there; once the criminal and unsavory areContinue reading “Welcome to America”
Hold On!
I am always the first to find fault when it comes to my medications, but I must give a shout out when there is a substantially better product that fully addresses my needs, including the most important: perception of value. I speak of the 1/2 oz. of First Class Funk, a hybrid strain packing aContinue reading “Hold On!”
Where Do I Start?
Of course, I’ll begin with the hapless comedy of errors which is what my beloved Manchester United Red Devils have become. I still don’t get it. This team’s storied offense is now not one bit offensive. After having overpaid to attract mid-tier level talent, the team is paying for it now. It looks like everyContinue reading “Where Do I Start?”
Differences
She has trouble boiling water. I am a starred French Chef She couldn’t tell a lie if she tried. I can. I also know that if my life ever came down to hanging in the balance dependent on Karen lying for me, adios muchachos! Black hair. Blonde hair. Dark brown skin. Pale white shin. AbsolutelyContinue reading “Differences”
The Way I See It
It’s a beautiful sunny day here in southern Ohio but the forecast for tomorrow is snow. Just thirteen miles north, the City of Dayton has announced there will be intermittent closures of several of their roads. If you live near Dayton, you know it is more feasible to announce that there are intermittent openings. TheContinue reading “The Way I See It”
Teamwork
Our man DJT has turned his attention to one of the world’s greatest problems and a real threat to global annihilation. He has signed a bill to ban male athletes that are genetically altered from participating in girls and women’s sports. This is a subject I dare not broach with my wife, the Domestic Despot,Continue reading “Teamwork”
Still Worth It?
You have to wonder. Our borders have been open to immigrants from all over the world, and I always thought, their own country must be really bad if they want to come here. They might want to think twice now. The president signed an Executive Order getting the infamous facility at Guantanamo prepped for certainContinue reading “Still Worth It?”
Who Do You Trust?
How big is your “circle of trust”? There is the obvious starting block—the family. Most families (I want to believe) trust each other, and God-forbid-if-it-ever-became necessary, would sacrifice their own lives for each other. My family was like that at one time. That circle, almost universally, included the police force. Mass shootings, inept practices, andContinue reading “Who Do You Trust?”
