Since we are approaching the first full week of college football, I will post my music through the weekend. I wrote this song as an autobiographical dig at my crazy-ass self; a period of my existence that lasted way longer than it should have and I’m sure my behavior would have been different if IContinue reading “Three in a Row”

More Music
I had a surprisingly good response (s) from my first music post yesterday, so, keeping with that whole strike-while-the-iron’s-hot thing, I am following it up with three more songs in today’s post.. I was working as a French Executive Chef in the Midwest in the early ‘90’s and I had the occasion to run intoContinue reading “More Music”
Pardon the Interruption
Those funny little TikTok challenges are funny alright—until they are not. Three teens are lucky they were not killed when they rang the wrong doorbell in Texas, but it could be Anywhere, U.S.A. It’s not the same world, so you can’t act the same. But it IS Texas and you just don’t go trying homeContinue reading “Pardon the Interruption”
A Good Time Had by All
Well, almost all. You campaigned for him. Defended his every action and word. You voted for him. You opened a restaurant which was not much more than a shrine to him. You posted his face all over the menu and restaurant and even produced a signature dish and called it the Trump Burger. And now,Continue reading “A Good Time Had by All”
Back to Basics
The California (where else?) Supreme Court has blocked the Republicans from stopping the Democrats from doing what Texas is doing and redistricting their state to suit their political needs. What say we stop fucking around and just get the inevitable civil war out of the way so the world can move on? With or withoutContinue reading “Back to Basics”
Mere Happenstance?
I think not. My man President Zelensky is set to meet in the oval Office and will be showing up looking very much like Oliver Twist. “Please, sir, may I have some more?” I can see him begging for the extra jets and other weapons of death as his benefactor makes life and death decisions.Continue reading “Mere Happenstance?”
Always the Last to Know
John Cena had a good run. But like all good things… Now that he is hand-stitching his hair to his scalp, it’s time to call it a day, Champ. He says his body is screaming at him to retire. I hope he listens to it. Every so often Florida screws up and does something right…Continue reading “Always the Last to Know”
Now Do You See it?
I was flipping through the world news as is my wont every morning and surprise! The Palestinians still aren’t getting along with the Israelis! What’s it been now? 5000 years? A lot of people are giving it to President Trump for his tough stance on cleaning up the homelessness and crime in Washington, D.C. ButContinue reading “Now Do You See it?”
Take a Hike
So it’s not just arrogant Americans… Australia has its share of dumbasses who have no respect for nature or the planet on which we dwell. Don’t they have a clue what “protected” forests are? People like them should leave our ecosystem. They are just taking up good oxygen that a tree or bush could beContinue reading “Take a Hike”
Warning Signs
California has issued a warning to people to “stay out of the water” due to tides and dangerous rip currents. But if they are still alive, I would bet that a few of my old surf buddies are paddling out as we speak… That’s like driving all the way to Wally World only to findContinue reading “Warning Signs”
