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.
The Lowdown
Sixteen years old and his life is over… Desmond Holly shot and wounded two students at his high school in Evergreen, Colorado before turning the gun on himself, ending his life and continuing the “tradition” of school shootings, the thirteenth going back to Columbine in 1999. Money scandals in high school athletics were nonexistent (orContinue reading “The Lowdown”
Afterthoughts II
Our high schoolers are continuing the slide down the educational ladder, as their scores drop to a new low. Who needs silly old education anyway? People keep reporting Trump is dead, but really, he just looks that way. Newsweek is reporting Gen Z is experiencing “a drop in life satisfaction.” Darn. I was hoping toContinue reading “Afterthoughts II”
