Not just a classic fun adventure movie, but our national holiday commemorating all the things this country once did and believed in, oh yeah, and an extra day off from work. I grew up part of my life on military bases, so patriotism was effortless exercise and especially when you are stationed overseas because thereContinue reading “Independence Day”

Just Another Brick…
It’s not like there isn’t plenty to keep us occupied; no, the Supreme Court of the United States of America is now taking aim at Affirmative Action, as in eliminating it. I am neither Democrat or Republican, I prefer to think of myself as a member of the Free-Thinkers Party. Since I am sure IContinue reading “Just Another Brick…”
New Language
Let’s face it. As we (are supposed to) evolve, our lexicon changes, our perspective changes, and it’s happening all around us. I hear new terms and before I can react, I have to look up what it is I am reacting to. It took me years evidently, to realize that Karen was a pejorative termContinue reading “New Language”
And the Beat Goes On…
Sonny and Cher walkin’ the talk. Kansas is making it pretty clear what their thoughts are on the whole LGBTQ alphabet thingy. Not the place to go for many people. South Carolina just became the only State Supreme Court in the United States with all-male judges. So what do they do? They revisit the abortionContinue reading “And the Beat Goes On…”
You Don’t Say!
A year ago you couldn’t avoid stories about BabyHead Putin’s fuck-up of an “invasion.” They were everywhere. But the big news ended up being the resolve of the Ukrainian people and their allies as they proudly defended their country. So I am thinking that they faced that bald little bastard Putin’s best shot and handledContinue reading “You Don’t Say!”
I Cannot Fathom…
No, not the poorest of taste in jokes considering the latest tragedy of the deep bombarding us from every news outlet, but my knee-jerk reaction when I heard of the five souls lost at sea. Right out of a Netflix movie script, and you can believe there will be movies to come, the vessel wasContinue reading “I Cannot Fathom…”
I’m Shaking My Head
When I think of the state of education in this country. Critical thought is dying, replaced with the ramblings of frightened white people who want to shape the future for young students. Nope, no such thing as slavery. Never happened. God? Never happened. You can deny all you want, you can further propagate the liesContinue reading “I’m Shaking My Head”
Speeding
I drive too fast. And they got me. I was on my way home from a drummer audition and I was going about 85 on the Interstate when the lights came on and I had to cross two lanes to get to the shoulder of the road. Busted. No excuses, no emergency to get to,Continue reading “Speeding”
Incredible
People are still killing people because they can’t stop drinking and getting behind a wheel. It’s like cigarette smoke. If it only stayed within the body of the smoker and didn’t stink up someone else’s personal space, there would be no problem. Or if the offending smoker didn’t act like the bovine creature they areContinue reading “Incredible”
OOPS!
Mr. I-am-sending-a rocket-into-space-just-because-I-can Elon Musk once again looked like a horse’s ass when his much-ballyhooed marvel of technology blew up minutes after being launched out into the mist. His Starship, er, Sinkship is being fished out of the Atlantic Ocean. People are wondering “why isn’t NASA doing these space forays? Why is a private companyContinue reading “OOPS!”
