It’s one thing to miss a target you are aiming at by as much as fifty feet and your mission is still considered to be a success; but when you miss by a whole country and bomb yourselves, you must wonder, at some point, about the quality of leadership. So I suppose I have toContinue reading “Missed It By That Much”

OOPS!
Mr. I-am-sending-a rocket-into-space-just-because-I-can Elon Musk once again looked like a horse’s ass when his much-ballyhooed marvel of technology blew up minutes after being launched out into the mist. His Starship, er, Sinkship is being fished out of the Atlantic Ocean. People are wondering “why isn’t NASA doing these space forays? Why is a private companyContinue reading “OOPS!”
Post #800!
I woke up this morning with the worst throat cold ever, but I couldn’t blow off practice, so I showed up anyway. Just my (our) luck. I have been madly, vainly, searching for a drummer to hook up with us and complete the band. So not one, or two, but three potential drummer-bandmates have askedContinue reading “Post #800!”
You Can’t Make This Stuff Up
A former president of the United States being charged and indicted for a series of crimes he was found guilty for. It might just be me, but I can’t help but feel that his candidacy for president is lacking the mad approval ratings and popular groundswell he enjoyed in 2016. That, and the fact thereContinue reading “You Can’t Make This Stuff Up”
Fool Me Once
You know the rest of the saying… It’s about learning from your mistakes, and the time, if ever, that it takes to turn a mistake into a learning lesson. The truth of the matter is that some people never learn. Call it a learning disability in the most clinical sense, but the undeniable fact ofContinue reading “Fool Me Once”
At Long Last…
With the proliferation of automatic weaponry in our schools, the national conversation has briefly turned to outrage and disbelief. And before you check to see if hell has indeed, frozen over, consider this. A politician told the truth. Faced with questions about gun control that are oft-repeated and never addressed, Congressman Pete Burchett, Republican fromContinue reading “At Long Last…”
Pot Shots
Everyone is down on anything that they don’t agree with, or don’t understand. I miss the days where people were not such attention-craving assholes. You don’t have to look very far to find the source. Social media. I don’t give two shits what you had for lunch, so don’t take a picture of it. IContinue reading “Pot Shots”
If The Shoe Fits
With all the anti-American sentiment emanating from our own politicians, it’s hard to believe that there are people who actually want to live here in this country. Go down to El Paso and see what the sentiment is there. So when the hell did the machete become the preferred weapon of choice for rednecks? Can’tContinue reading “If The Shoe Fits”
Who is to Blame?
Give people the slightest semblance of a reason and they will gleefully seek out and even more gleefully assign blame whenever they can. Where does the “blame chain” end? Good luck trying to tag any politician; unless you lie for a living, too, you are already behind the curve. The economy? Oh, this president isContinue reading “Who is to Blame?”
Just When You Think You’ve Heard it All
Our boy Trump is starting to hear footsteps as Ron DeSantis ramps up his campaign. Evidently The Florida governor’s book, Mein Kampf II, is selling well and now, unfazed by his miscalculations in the 20202 election, Trump is accusing DeSantis of “inflating his numbers.” I actually had to stop typing and laugh at that one.Continue reading “Just When You Think You’ve Heard it All”
