Well I guess the question of just how the American MLS (Major League Soccer) stacks up against world-class competition has been answered. Sorry, Sir David. It doesn’t. Not by a long shot. Paris Saint Germain made them look like a high school team. Not even the great magic of Lionel Messi or the power ofContinue reading “Hold My Beer”

Wouldn’t Ya Know?
The story started by saying (in 1874 mind you) a man was convicted for eating his five companions to get through a brutal snowstorm. Come on. Just how long did this snowstorm last? And five? What the hell were the five doing? Waiting around to end up being dinner? Didn’t the others start to wonder?Continue reading “Wouldn’t Ya Know?”
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.

Rack ‘em Up
If you are having girlfriend problems…. No problem. Just leave. End of story. But DON’T throw her overboard into the ocean knowing that she does not know how to swim. That’s just downright rude. Helen Hunt feels really good about rejecting Hollywood’s beauty standards, but it’s not like she was ever a raging beauty inContinue reading “Rack ‘em Up”
The Way of the World
She wanted to be famous. Now ol’ what’s-her-name from Tempe, Arizona (my old stomping grounds) is pushing up cacti. Dead in her teens. Thanks once again goes to TikTok. In this corner, weighing (according to himself) a svelte 180 pounds of all muscle, is the president of the United States. In this corner, outweighed byContinue reading “The Way of the World”
As I Was Saying…
Between the countries that we have been banned, or encouraged not to travel to, and the countries that are banning their citizens from visiting us, it just looks a whole lot easier to stay home, have a few cool ones, relax, and shoot the first person who makes a noise outside your front door. jk.Continue reading “As I Was Saying…”
