Even in retirement, with no daily routine or agenda to adhere to, would I devote even one microsecond of thought to the condition of Jeff Bridges’ cancerous tumor. No pictures needed, thank you. Those are the same people that take and send pictures of the food they eat. Reality alert. Nobody cares. A couple ofContinue reading “Can We Be Perfectly Honest?”

Post #800!
I woke up this morning with the worst throat cold ever, but I couldn’t blow off practice, so I showed up anyway. Just my (our) luck. I have been madly, vainly, searching for a drummer to hook up with us and complete the band. So not one, or two, but three potential drummer-bandmates have askedContinue reading “Post #800!”
What Have I Missed?
I have been out of town for three blogs. Visiting family is the best. I know they continue to investigate Racquel Welch’s cause of death (COD to CSI fans) and I was sad to hear that she had been battling Alzheimer’s but finally succumbed to a cardiac arrest. What a hottie. I thought she hadContinue reading “What Have I Missed?”
My Ass Still Burns
If you’ve joined me lately, you will know that I am one of the beleaguered fans of the storied Manchester United Reds. Lately, we have been on quite the roll. We have enjoyed success internationally, as well as the FA Cup in recent weeks, but Jurgen Klopp and the Reds of Liverpool apparently were notContinue reading “My Ass Still Burns”
Raise Your Hand
-If you are sick and tired of kids attacking those charged with trying to make those imbeciles smarter. I say why bother? 17 years on this planet or even one-year in a tough high school qualifies you to be tried as an adult. I don’t want to hear the bleeding hearts talk about a childContinue reading “Raise Your Hand”
Checking In
A weather balloon. Right. Now it’s just debris, but why did it take so long for the bubbleheads in our Defense Department to shoot it down? And why is a mere weather balloon the size of a football field? Must be a whole lot of data it is collecting. Even an old country boy likeContinue reading “Checking In”
When is Enough Enough?
When free agency hit sports, I started to lose interest. It used to be your city had a professional sports team and the whole city rooted for them because it was their” team, “their” players. Players would play their entire career for the same team and this gave fans a vested interest in cheering theContinue reading “When is Enough Enough?”
I Thought I Heard it All
Keystone. Car 54 Where are you? Uvalde. The police shot and killed a double amputee. Not the athletic, mobile type running on two prosthetic limbs. No. Stumps. He was trying to run away on his stumps. They caught him by walking. He did, however, have a butcher knife he was wielding, so, according to theContinue reading “I Thought I Heard it All”
Oh Me of Little Faith
I woke up late and missed the first five minutes of the Derby—Manchester United hosting our rivals Manchester City. The Reds actually started out quite smoothly, and, although I was hoping for a loss, albeit a CLOSE loss to the powder blues, I just have seen enough games of City to see firsthand the unrivalledContinue reading “Oh Me of Little Faith”
Rivals
Our first rival usually shows up as soon as we are old enough to socialize with other kids. Almost always, you can bet that a girl is involved. As we grow older and ascend the educational hierarchy, we form rivals in just about everything: there’s the quiet boy in Chemistry that has a 97 average,Continue reading “Rivals”
