No matter how great you think you are, there is always someone, somewhere out there, who is better. I saw it a lot of it growing up as I started competitive tackle football at age seven. I would have started at age six, but I was caught trying to forge my parents’ signatures on theContinue reading “Without Fail”

Stay With Me Now
Lego says their new billion dollar plant they are building in Vietnam will be “all green.” Talk about a load. How can it be all green if those indestructible pieces made of nothing natural from this planet are being produced there? If you’ve ever had the pleasure of stepping on a few of them youContinue reading “Stay With Me Now”
Celebrations
Who doesn’t love a good celebration? Who cares what for, a gathering of people with smiles on their faces cheering for a common good. Nothing better than that. But there’s always that one asshole… It’s hilarious when someone celebrates too soon, only to lose their “sure victory” at the last second. If ever there wasContinue reading “Celebrations”
Now You’ve Done It
Austria has gone ahead and issued a “warning” to Republican states that there will be “retaliation” by the country in response to the recent Trump-imposed tariffs. Better go to Costco and buy about five-hundred of those little cans of Vienna sausages now. I don’t give a damn how good he can shoot a basketball, JaContinue reading “Now You’ve Done It”
Buzzkill
Negative people. Immovable antiquated ideologies. Wasted time. You can kind of understand those people out in the desert who are in a hurry to get to the Ultimate. I mean have you seen that place? Anyplace has got to be better than there. Make up your mind, Georgia. You want to be the most redneckContinue reading “Buzzkill”
Hello Again
My money is on California to be the next state to flip from Democratic to Republican if the antics of their beleaguered governor Gavin Newsome give any indication. Nothing surprises me in our political arena anymore. Take that dumbass New York governor Kathy Hochul whose dumbass solution to a low staffing problem caused by herContinue reading “Hello Again”
Pride
Normal pride is good, healthy even. It is only when it traverses the boundaries of decency into the realm of hubris and arrogance that it is counter-productive. Cry all you want about the economy and the active and impending tariffs, but one good thing to come out of it (well, two actually). 1) people areContinue reading “Pride”
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!”
Now Hear This…
As you may or may not know, I was not blessed with children, which is why, when I was physically able, I was so involved with coaching young kids in several sports, including basketball, football, baseball, and soccer. Both girls and boys. The little girls were great because they did whatever I asked of themContinue reading “Now Hear This…”
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”
