Don’t Blink

There are ways of departing this sphere of existence and then there is getting buried under a landslide of mud, debris, and garbage at a landfill in Manilla, Philippines. We don’t choose how or when. HE does. So tragic. The U.S. just seized the fifth oil tanker linked to Venezuela. One more and I willContinue reading “Don’t Blink”

The Long and Short of it

Now President Gustavo Petro of Colombia is jumping all froggy on our president. Like Colombia is the model for anything. Puh-leeze. The corruption and fraud existed on several layers in Minnesota, not just a couple of barefoot Somali kids playing around on a computer. So, when I hear Democrat Governor Tim Walz deny knowing anythingContinue reading “The Long and Short of it”

Wayward Thinking…

Somewhere in the forests of Colorado, a mountain lion is roaming free after killing a woman on New Year’s Day. She was an intruder, walking on his path in his home. The loss of any life I believe to be tragic, but the human response was predictable and even more of a tragedy. When theyContinue reading “Wayward Thinking…”

Hold On

That nerdy little gamer son of yours now has another potential conduit for his gaming ”skills.” Military drone operator. Except these aren’t little electronic dots and blips he’s dealing with; these are real bombs killing real people. Real bombs bombing real hospitals and schools. If they are great gamers, they will be great at killingContinue reading “Hold On”

Here Today, Here Tomorrow

The president has proposed term limits for politicians: Six years for House of Representatives. Twelve years for Senators. He mentioned ‘nary a word on term limits for the presidency… Lane Kiffin, highly regarded as an offensive strategist in college football, has also sown his seeds of discontent. Just ask USC. Tennessee. Mississippi. Is LSU hisContinue reading “Here Today, Here Tomorrow”

If  Not When…

The article started by saying what Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce had to say about the movie Home Alone. Quite frankly, I could give two shits what he has to say about anything other than why the Chiefs will be watching the playoffs on TV instead of defending their AFC Championship. I wouldContinue reading “If  Not When…”

‘Tis the Season

Everybody looking for dirt on the president due to his past association with Jeffrey Epstein and all this time it was the horny British royals don’t ya know? “Don’t lend them any money.” That’s what I used to tell someone when speaking about a soon-to-be-ex-employee. With the unspoken because they won’t be around long enoughContinue reading “‘Tis the Season”

Press the Bet

I have been enjoying my wild ride of a life for some seventy-one plus years now, and I still am able to look at the world and its people with the same wonder I had as a child. I wonder how we have made it so long without annihilating each other or making this planetContinue reading “Press the Bet”

The Letter “Z”

Finishing with audio segments of my book EMOTIONS: Not your Mama’s ABC’s! We come to the letter Z. I chose the emotion zealous to be highlighted by my short-short story titled Halftime. Hope you like it. If you missed any of the posts, I think they are still on this site archived somewhere. Again, IContinue reading “The Letter “Z””

The Letter “X”

We arrrive at the letter X in my audio attempt of my book EMOTIONS: Not your Mama’s ABC’s! and the emotion I chose was xenophobic and I titled the short-short story Incredulity. Hope you like it.
