Whaaat?

There are some people you can pick on, and then there are others you shouldn’t. Picking on politicians is easy. And fun. I crack me up sometimes. Entertainers, the wealthy, the criminals and sell-outs of all shapes and sizes who had better be hoping that there really is NOT a place you go to whereContinue reading “Whaaat?”

Rack ‘em Up Again

You can already see stories, rumors, and the usual pile of guano warning of a possible draft to get people to fight in yet another unwanted, unnecessary war in We have to have a longer memory than that… The last time we stuck our noses where it didn’t belong, we got our asses whipped byContinue reading “Rack ‘em Up Again”

Back For More

The headline said Five Burgers Linked to Colon Cancer… That’s all I read. So, throw those five burgers away and … Boom! I did it again. Just cured colon cancer. Sometimes even I don’t know how I do it! It is a crappy day… The temperature is dancing right around seventy degrees. No wind. Sunny.Continue reading “Back For More”

Come Again?

I think about five or six days ago I posted a warning about how the use of cyberwarfare might be part of Iran’s battle plans and now they are screwing around with our missile defense systems. Even an old piker like me knows that can’t be real good. I’ve heard that life imitates art andContinue reading “Come Again?”

What’s Good For the Goose…

In this era of big-time money in college athletics, there are several new millionaires populating the rosters, and not just the players. Coaches. Big Money. Kirby Smart at Georgia. Lane Kiffin at LSU. Lincoln Riley at USC. These are some of the biggest names in the profession and when successful, they generate hundreds of millionsContinue reading “What’s Good For the Goose…”

So You’re Telling Me There’s a Chance…

It is a rainy day in southern Ohio which is one of the reasons it is so green and beautiful once spring and summer hit and I am practicing for an open mic at a popular Dayton pub tomorrow night. We only get a 30-minute timeslot so here are the songs I plan to play:Continue reading “So You’re Telling Me There’s a Chance…”

Nothing is Possible

Not anymore. Not for everyone. Add Goldie Hawn, once one of the cutest faces in all of celebrityhood (did I just invent another word?) to the list of desperate old buzzards clinging fiercely to their last vestiges of youth with beauty-destroying cosmetic surgery. Artificial cheekbones. Plastic skin pulled tight. Duck lips. Sad. James Blair possessesContinue reading “Nothing is Possible”

Ask the Wizard

It’s about an hour away from the president’s State of the Union address and I am awaiting it with the same anticipation I had when waiting for the next Jerry Lewis movie in the 50’s and 60’s—I couldn’t wait to see what that zany whackenheimer was going to say or do next… {NOTE: since IContinue reading “Ask the Wizard”

A Trampoline Can Be Dangerous

Bone spurs. His dad paid a doctor to falsely diagnose, treat, and document his “medical condition” so he wouldn’t have to serve in the armed forces. That must be why he’s so upset that he wasn’t awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor like all the other of our nations real military heroes, many of whomContinue reading “A Trampoline Can Be Dangerous”

Your Guess is as Good as Mine

Maybe even better. Kid Rock had one good song (Cowboy), and he thinks he’s a music icon now. The song that was released in 1998. Age does not make you iconic. If he thinks for one second that he can command ticket prices of $5,000 for his upcoming tour, well then this extra from theContinue reading “Your Guess is as Good as Mine”
