I have to make sure I am not seeing things. Did I see a headline that said Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgewick told a sob story about losing all their money in the infamous Bernie Madoff’s machinations? Boo fucking hoo. Here is the All-American boy who has been in every movie ever made since heContinue reading “Pinch Me”

Against the Grain
Not everyone is destined to go with the flow, to navigate the road well-travelled. Some examples? How about Billy Hayes walking the opposite direction around the wheel in Midnight Express? That simple gesture was such a powerful moment in the movie where the American prisoner finally decided that he was NOT going along with theContinue reading “Against the Grain”
My Two Cents
I saw a headline that stated, “The Whole World is Furious with NFL for Tom Brady penalty.” Shut the hell up. I posit that 95% of the world could give two shits about that pampered white boy or his even more spoiled wife. She is suing for divorce. Boo fucking hoo. I’m sure you haveContinue reading “My Two Cents”
Knee-Jerk Reactions
Gut reactions. Your first instinct. Think before you speak. I am so guilty of this, yet another reason to thank God for sending me Karen who is the exact opposite in this regard. I took a trip up to my marijuana dispensary just north of Dayton. It is a short ten-minute drive. They are notContinue reading “Knee-Jerk Reactions”
Give Me More
I absolutely cannot get enough of the videos of doggies and their excitement when they see their owners return home. Have you noticed how the whole parkour thing is pretty much over? By the time I found out what parkour was, it was gone. Give me more shots of people getting knocked down by bigContinue reading “Give Me More”
One More Time
It was 65 degrees and sunny today, so I decided to try and knock off nine holes of golf this afternoon. Big mistake. It didn’t help that my short game completely deserted me, but in my defense, I am starting to figure out my driver and three wood. Crushing them. I am using Rory McIlroy’sContinue reading “One More Time”
Wait for it…
This is a short story I wrote on about a fifteen minute break from working the restaurant at closing time. Trust At approximately 1:30 am Eastern Standard Time, at a family-dining chain restaurant in central Florida, an ex-employee pushed his way through the back door and into the kitchen. His two friends quickly dartedContinue reading “Wait for it…”
Go Ask Alice
An electric passenger plane? Very cool. The Israeli-based company that made it has made aviation history. When you think of all the rich assholes who use private planes for meaningless short trips just because they can, this will at least reduce the cost-per-asshole quotient. Alice is her name. The latest greedy bastards to try andContinue reading “Go Ask Alice”
Board Games
I didn’t talk to my stepfather for two weeks because he beat me in chess one time. It had taken me years to get to the point where I could finally beat him and like the terrible winner I was, I didn’t let a day go by without reminding him who was the chess masterContinue reading “Board Games”
Sleeping In
Since I am posting this blog about twelve hours later than usual, I am sure you understand. I slept in. I don’t use the term overslept, because quite frankly, I don’t think there is such a thing. I love sleep. Next to being stoned, it is the best use of hours we have as aContinue reading “Sleeping In”
