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”
Innocence Lost
When I was a young man, I carried the mindset of a wide-eyed child, marveling at everything this amazing world has to offer. I was always treated well no matter which country I was in, so I thought nice, welcoming people were the norm. Right. Three thieves break into a house. One injured and arrested.Continue reading “Innocence Lost”
Never in a Million Years
Marjorie Taylor Greene is right. There are only two genders. Everything else is a contrivance. There are many derivatives, identifications, and permutations, but there is male and female. Eso es. But that being said, everything else that spills out of her diseased mind is horseshit. So United Airlines is seating window-seat passengers and it hasContinue reading “Never in a Million Years”
The Definition of Insanity
Another mass shooting. Another prayer vigil. We’re up to two a day, for those of you keeping score. Now I can see the tension between political ideologies because it has been the American Way of Life since I was born. And I’m old now. But when did mere disagreement manifest into something evil? Disagree? “HangContinue reading “The Definition of Insanity”
Finally!
They had to take over twenty total elections to do it, but the Republicans finally have the right election-denying, white racist in place. Is Louisiana even still considered part of the United States? The look on the ex-presidents’ face as another fine of ten-thousand dollars was assessed.. Not because he doesn’t have the money, butContinue reading “Finally!”
It’s Not Like it Used to Be
Nothing is. Nor should it be. I say that wistfully, after getting a glimpse of the upcoming Derby Day clash between my beloved Manchester United Red Devils and the powder blue faggots from Manchester City. I am a lot of things, but I am not stupid. If I was still a betting man, I wouldContinue reading “It’s Not Like it Used to Be”
It’s Better to Burn Out…
Sing it Neil. I’m approaching having spent seven full decades of time on this planet, so it seems like every couple of years one of my life influences/heroes are leaving this sphere of existence. It used to be every decade or so, but lately that time gap is shortening. The more things change… Another MiddleContinue reading “It’s Better to Burn Out…”
