Just when I was starting to think our justice system had lost its balls, they dole out a whopping four-month sentence to another one of Trump’s sycophants. This is the guy (Steve Bannon) who told you to shove your subpoenas up your ass. I’m sure if he ever sees the inside of a prison, itContinue reading “Legally Speaking”

Legally Speaking
Just when I was starting to think our justice system had lost its balls, they dole out a whopping four-month sentence to another one of Trump’s sycophants. This is the guy (Steve Bannon) who told you to shove your subpoenas up your ass. I’m sure if he ever sees the inside of a prison, itContinue reading “Legally Speaking”
I KNOW Why Me?
I am my best ally and my own worst enemy. I elevated myself to levels of euphoria and visited the depths of the abyss. From the year 1974 to 1987, if given any two choices, I would indubitably choose the option that was the worse for me. Consistently. Knowingly. When I entered the higher echelonsContinue reading “I KNOW Why Me?”
Holding My Breath
No new wars to report. No mass murders. No new charges levied against Trump. No stupid shit coming out of Marjorie Taylor Greene’s mug. I’m NOT holding my breath to see how many millions of dollars the next high school phenom will get to play football for one of the NCAA’s money machines. These kidsContinue reading “Holding My Breath”
Don’t Forget Dessert
As Executive Chef in fine dining establishments in the eighties and nineties, I witnessed firsthand the changing landscape from the traditional (classic) dishes to the new, colorful platescapes that overzealous chefs, with their squeeze bottles in hand, chose to paint like graffiti artists. I liked SOME of the new look plates, and I was oneContinue reading “Don’t Forget Dessert”
Just Getting Started
In this, my seventieth decade on planet earth, I have decided to do something. Go figure. I will continue to learn the blues lead guitar and will play in several “blues jams” and open mics to see if I can put together one last band before I hang up my PRS. I will shave fiveContinue reading “Just Getting Started”
Freedom of Speech
The first amendment and all that. I have been banned from Facebook because of a story I previously published here on this blog. It was excerpted from my book EMOTIONS: Not your Mama’s ABC’s! Talk about small-minded. I tried to explain to the “Appeal Board” that my words were a creative work of fiction, butContinue reading “Freedom of Speech”
This story got me Banned from Facebook!
I think of myself as a pretty reasonable person, but yesterday I was notified that a recent story I posted on Facebook had resulted in several bad comments and just like that, Maddogg’s fb voice was silenced. My response to the “support” team was: “It’s a story. Fiction.” Evidently, my succinct response resulted in myContinue reading “This story got me Banned from Facebook!”
Squatters
People that inhabit a property that they have no legal claim to do so. Big news when we hear of squatters and the legal frustrations involved trying to extricate them. Aren’t we all just another form of squatter? We are here, free to live and do whatever we want until another more powerful entity decidesContinue reading “Squatters”
Get Real
When we left our lovely home in Phoenix to be closer to Karen’s family, I was looking for my own little Mayberry to move to. I wanted the whole mom and pop thing, the small town feel, and when we were searching for our new home, we came upon the “main street” of this smallContinue reading “Get Real”
