You see stories of the unabashed hatred some people have for transgender people and I am the last one to understand it, but I don’t hate what I don’t understand. I either study it in depth or move on to another subject. And the world somehow keeps spinning… So I don’t understand the resistance toContinue reading “A Long Way to Go”

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”
Have Fun!
Spring break is here! Just don’t travel anywhere. Even staying home is dangerous anymore. Even our old buddy Germany is warning its citizens of venturing here. Now I know I’m just an old country boy from East L.A. but I don’t think that Delta jet airplane was supposed to land upside down. The CEO ofContinue reading “Have Fun!”
The Latest
President Trump says he wants to make the United States capital crime-free and the “talk of the world.” What’s he gonna do, make all the justices and politicians leave town? Besides its already the “talk of the world” for all the stupid shit going on in the theater that is the American political arena. SpeakingContinue reading “The Latest”
The Joy of Living
It looks like Greenland has voted a “thanks but no thanks” to DJT and his plans to annex the country. Not to worry. He’ll find a different country to pick on in his plans for world domination. I see that we are sending up a rescue mission to save two astronauts who have been strandedContinue reading “The Joy of Living”
Chew on This
Just like an episode of Law and Order, a wrongly imprisoned man was released after thirty years when modern DNA technology backed up his unwavering assertion of innocence. If this indeed holds up, what price tag would you put on what is owed to this person? We can’t just say, “Sorry, oops and move on….Continue reading “Chew on This”
Shooting the Breeze
Stop posting those dumbass stories about which breed of dogs go best with kids or families or this or that. ALL dogs are great with infants, kids, families, and even when your kids are still a barnacle on your underside as they find their way through the rocky seas of life. The best amusement parkContinue reading “Shooting the Breeze”
Bend Over
You elected him… The headline reads: Pope rebukes Trump over… (insert latest dumbass thing he did or said here). Like DJT could give two shits what the Pope thinks or wants. He doesn’t trust him. He doesn’t trust anybody he can’t buy or bully. On to the important world-changing Executive Orders of the President. HowContinue reading “Bend Over”
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”
Get Real
I was not going to pay those money grubbers at ESPN+ one red cent, so I had to keep up with my Manchester United Red Devils through the delayed Gamecast on the channel I DO pay for. I both praise the Premier League football club unnecessarily sometimes, and criticize them unnecessarily at others.Continue reading “Get Real”
