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?”

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”

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?”

I Missed a lot…

Evidently. Jimmy Carter died. He always seemed like a pretty straight shooter to me. And he loved his wife and family. A good God-fearing man. Rest in peace, sir. I love everything about the College Football Playoffs, except one little change I would make. Reward the top-4 ranked teams with the first round byes. SpeakingContinue reading “I Missed a lot…”

One Speed

That’s all you should have. To quote the late great Gene Wilder from 1980’s Stir Crazy, balls out. Off or balls out. For everything. You only get one chance to live each and every moment of your time on this planet in this sphere of existence. Then you die. So don’t dial it in. IContinue reading “One Speed”

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?”

What’s the Worst That Could Happen?

After seventy years on this planet, I’m pretty much settled in as a worse-case scenario guy. I want the bad news first. Every four or eight years we resume this “Kill the piggie!” dance, aka our presidential election. What once was a civil transfer of power from one regime pledging to improve our country toContinue reading “What’s the Worst That Could Happen?”

Pass the Salt

This crow is a little bland. Just when I throw in the towel for democracy in general and the Democratic party in particular, one hundred million dollars is raised in 48 hours for the presumptive presidential nominee Kamala Harris. This money is coming from five, ten, and twenty dollar donations from citizens across this greatContinue reading “Pass the Salt”
