I mean there are two commentators at a basketball game. TWO. One of them goes on a nasty racist rage and the other one did not. When reporting this story, a newspaper mixed them up and reported the wrong reporter’s name as the guilty party. Boom. Twenty-five million. As much as I would hate toContinue reading “Just the Facts”

Our Skill Set
We each have one that is just as unique to us as our fingerprints. We learn them, we inherit them, and we assimilate them our entire lives. Then our role is over and a new cast goes through the motions of mouthing the words and playing the parts as the show must go on. IContinue reading “Our Skill Set”
A Gypsy Girl Named Shannon
Not a John Stewart song, but a real girl. Bright garnet-yellow eyes, smooth café skin, and a throaty giggle that first seduced then paralyzed. I met Shannon in the high Sierra Mountains in northern California where she camped with her family of seven: Her father Grecko, mother Sashay, and her quadruplet sisters, not one ofContinue reading “A Gypsy Girl Named Shannon”
Thumb Tripping
Hitchhiking. You just don’t see it anymore. It used to be a means of transporting one’s self to points unknown with a complete stranger. I know, not because I ever had to hitch a ride to go somewhere, but because I was the guy who would stop and pick up whoever had their thumbs out.Continue reading “Thumb Tripping”
Problem Solved
Some Pennsylvania high school students are organizing a walk-out from their school because the world is spinning faster than they can catch up. Being forced to share bathroom facilities with transgender females doesn’t work for them. This is a problem and it won’t just be confined to the Quaker State. Make a third bathroom; forContinue reading “Problem Solved”
Everybody Loses
That dumbass Kim Jong-un from North Korea is once again talking shit about using his nuclear weapons. Talk about someone with penis-envy. Used to be, the only time you fucked with the United States of America was if you had a death wish. Then we got cocky and imperialistic. Vietnam 1 USA 0. I amContinue reading ” Everybody Loses”
Turn the Page
OK, Miley Cyrus, I’ll give it to you. You are persistent. You, or the people responsible for your public image, have tried putting you in every outfit imaginable, trying to showcase the very little you were blessed with, and it hasn’t worked. Less is not better (or more). Eat something. Three words for you. KeepContinue reading “Turn the Page”
Scary Christmas!
The one time of year that I still look forward to just doesn’t seem to hold the old magic that it used to. War(s). Hatred. Prejudice. Both learned behaviors. The streaming services holding hostage the viewer by restricting access to the “good” Christmas movies and not the formulaic and predictable Hallmark scripted movies. Boring. Now,Continue reading “Scary Christmas!”
Good vs. Evil
The eternal struggle. Knowing the right thing to do and actually doing it are worlds apart. When I made my decision to withdraw from college and hit the road with a regional touring rock and roll band, I knew it was not the right thing to do. But it allowed me to experience the electricContinue reading “Good vs. Evil”
Worlds Apart
As the rise of antisemitism spreads throughout The Greatest Country on Earth (pardon me while I have a good belly laugh), our progress as a civilization appears to have hit one of the buried Ukrainian landmines (Hey remember that war? It’s still going on!). We are in a downward spiral, and it is not hardContinue reading “Worlds Apart”
