Eighteen years old and getting ready to attend high school prom. No prom. Shot in the back. Dead. The kids who were with him said that they were just “playing a prank” in an attempt to get some views on TikTok. Oh, I get it. Haha. Details. Yes, by all means, DO sweat the smallContinue reading “I Don’t Get It”

Hocus Pocus
Nothing up my sleeve…. And presto! Change-o! We are no longer a democratic citizenry. We are a mob just waiting for something to piss us off enough to do violence and destruction. We should be so proud. And in the “Only in America” department, people are reportedly being picked up by ICE agents all acrossContinue reading “Hocus Pocus”
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…”
Now Hear This…
As you may or may not know, I was not blessed with children, which is why, when I was physically able, I was so involved with coaching young kids in several sports, including basketball, football, baseball, and soccer. Both girls and boys. The little girls were great because they did whatever I asked of themContinue reading “Now Hear This…”
Moving Right Along
Here’s big news from the planet’s most brilliant scientists: A volcano near Alaska’s largest city could erupt soon. Or in another 15,000 years. Those dumbasses don’t know and your guess is as good as mine. The girl who was running a race in Lynchburg, TN wound up and cracked a fellow competitor over the head.Continue reading “Moving Right Along”
Enjoy the Ride
A 73 year-old Australian man was pulled over for a routine traffic stop and it was discovered he was still under a suspension that would ban him from driving again for another 92 years. He can drive again when he is 165 years-old. I lost my license briefly after one of the many bouts IContinue reading “Enjoy the Ride”
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”
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”
