I saw that episode of Law and Order. I don’t know what the maximum sentence in Colorado is for 191 counts of corpse abuse, and let’s not forget federal fraud charges, but I hope it’s a lot and I hope they give the guilty funeral director the max. The stones on this guy. He throwsContinue reading “Come and Get It”

Ouch!
It was tough watching Indiana Pacer Tyrese Haliburton go down with a severed Achilles tendon last night in the seventh game of the NBA Finals. I can totally relate (to the injury, not the skill level) because the exact same thing happened to me back in 1982. I was opening up a large family restaurantContinue reading “Ouch!”
They Did it Again
The American people are amazing. Just when my faith in us was starting to wane, they absolutely humiliate the Republicans and their Man Who Would Be King. Think about it. From all the pictures I saw, it looked like there were many more people IN the parade than actually bothered to show up for it.Continue reading “They Did it Again”

Don’t think too highly of myself, do I? With my birth month and Mother’s Day in our rear-view mirrors, a North Carolina woman says hold everything…. She gets called in to her daughters’ school because of an alleged fighting situation which needed to be addressed immediately. So what does next years’ Mother of the YearContinue reading “The Oracle”
Kings and Dumbasses
Some dumbass in Oklahoma (where else?) is being put to death thirteen years after he set a “beloved” grandmother on fire. Jeez. I wonder what he’d do if he really, really loved her? Dumbass Thomas David Carruth, a 64-year old former judge, will sit in jail for the next two years as part of hisContinue reading “Kings and Dumbasses”
Come and Get It
Equipment failure. Passenger issues. Pilot error. Kind of makes me glad I don’t fly anywhere anymore. Way too much drama, and before you ask, the answer is “hell no!” if you want me to give up my 1st class seat. For ANY reason, unless you happen to be holding a gun on me. A newContinue reading “Come and Get It”
