Unless you have to. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is endorsing Kathy Hochul’s bid for reelection as Governor. And he’s getting a load of shit for it. Why? Why is he endorsing her or why is he catching hell for it? He’s endorsing her because she has shown a willingness to work together withContinue reading “Never Surrender”

Age is Just a Number
One of the Dumbass Doctors—Phil or Oz (I can’t remember which) has posited that with the age expectancy climbing, the first person who will reach 200 years of age in their lifetime has already been born. Can you friggin’ even imagine being two-hundred? If you are young, of course not. Hell, you probably can’t evenContinue reading “Age is Just a Number”
Presto! Change-o!
If only it were that simple. Not quite the Boston Tea Party, but it’s a start. Some anti-ICE protesters took over a hotel lobby in New York City to protest their housing of federal ICE agents. I’m sure the student working part-time on the reservation desk didn’t make the policy. Or the night maintenance guy.Continue reading “Presto! Change-o!”
They Said it Couldn’t be Done
I am certainly not trying to jinx anything, but there is now a small flame of hope burning in Old Trafford. Just a couple matches into Michael Carrick’s interim caretaker manager audition for the Manchester United Red Devils and at long last, I sense a renewed excitement on the pitch and in the team afterContinue reading “They Said it Couldn’t be Done”
Who Ya Gonna Believe?
That venerable French museum The Louvre is raising its admission price by 45%. To go packed like sardines and look at old stuff. Don’t get me wrong; I love museums and I have been fortunate enough to visit several of the world’s greatest. But what can they be escalating prices for? Are they adding moreContinue reading “Who Ya Gonna Believe?”
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”
