Normal pride is good, healthy even. It is only when it traverses the boundaries of decency into the realm of hubris and arrogance that it is counter-productive. Cry all you want about the economy and the active and impending tariffs, but one good thing to come out of it (well, two actually). 1) people areContinue reading “Pride”

That’s More Like It
A sixty-five year old American dumbass thought he’d be cute and carve his name into a sacred Japanese temple pillar. I hope they give the idiot the maximum three years in prison to think about what a dumbass he is. You can’t win ‘em all, Disney. Mixed in with your mega box office hits areContinue reading “That’s More Like It”
Here it Comes…
Since I am a big fan of survival movies, I was flicking through the film selections on the tube and I saw a movie from 2015 which was simply titled Everest. I was a huge fan of Vertical Limit so I figured I would check this movie out. It wasn’t bad and I would readilyContinue reading “Here it Comes…”
Hear Me Now
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”
