I like being alone, but I suppose feeling lonely is a curse for some. Others can be alone even when surrounded by other people. I am one of them. I think I equate people with being antithetical to a clean and healthy planet. I would be alright with a smaller world population, or even better,Continue reading “Loneliness”

Where Did it Go?
It was here just a minute ago. My memory. Despite my wife’s inaccurate recollections, I am just now starting to notice small signs that my once precise eidetic memory is slipping. There are TWO THINGS that I always remember. Always have and always will. Who I owe money to and who owes me money. 100%Continue reading “Where Did it Go?”
Raise Your Hand
Anyone on this planet with access to the news believe that Putin, that ignorant, paranoid little bald lawn gnome, might have had something to do with Alexey Navalny’s death raise your hands. Come on, up with them. Straight in the air. Now lower your arm forty-five degrees. You get it. And you are a TOTALContinue reading “Raise Your Hand”
The Best is Yet to Come…
It has to be. Let’s face it; the country is divided, the world is divided and we will never reconcile our differences. If we just use those parameters as the starting point, at least the lack of progress won’t seem as intolerable. DeSantis dropped out of the presidential race? I guess when his own partyContinue reading “The Best is Yet to Come…”
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”
More Pet Peeves
As I like to enlighten my wife with how things will change “when I am over everything,” the changes will go as follows: the pear in the commercial has to try doing a few push-ups to build those arms up. He’s got to learn to lift the carton all by himself. Commercials stop normalizing abnormalContinue reading “More Pet Peeves”
Of All the Ways…
Mass killing. Guns. Knives. Bombs. Virus. Mosquitoes. Mosquitoes? There are forty-three less hikers in Colorado alone this year that would LOVE to beg to differ, but they can’t. They’re dead. Done in by mosquitoes. In 1966, under the summer lights of our Little League baseball games, I would stand in center field where the brightestContinue reading “Of All the Ways…”
Down, But Not Out
I wasn’t feeling bad at all, having played an hour-long set at a new bar that wants to attract new patrons. My dinner consisted of a 4 oz piece of T-bone steak and exactly 10 Tater Tots (yes I counted them). I was sick as a dog on Friday night and I thought I wasContinue reading “Down, But Not Out”
