What Was I Thinking?

What if… All the rich people who have installed (hopefully) life-saving bunkers of their own in the event of a major catastrophe were actually setting themselves up for a slow, torturous, inevitable baking of their flesh while all the rest of us had already been vaporized instantly? That’s really one of the very few waysContinue reading “What Was I Thinking?”

Bend Over

You elected him… The headline reads: Pope rebukes Trump over… (insert latest dumbass thing he did or said here). Like DJT could give two shits what the Pope thinks or wants. He doesn’t trust him. He doesn’t trust anybody he can’t buy or bully. On to the important world-changing Executive Orders of the President. HowContinue reading “Bend Over”

Hold On!

Every time I turn around, Trump has signed another bill or made another proposal, or has even reached out to everybody and his brother for a conference. WTF? He didn’t do this much in the entire four years of his first presidency. I want to think that is a good thing, but part of meContinue reading “Hold On!”

Stealing

There are all sorts of crimes and taking something that is not yours is the absolute lowest. I have more respect for a murderer than a thief. Now before you get all puffed up and froggy, I recognize the difference between ill-gotten gain and a necessity to survive for those desperate enough to try andContinue reading “Stealing”

Marijuana

I started smoking pot when I was 14 and a sophomore in high school. It seemed a natural thing to do since I was playing in a hot little rock and roll band and I did not like the smell or taste of tobacco smoke. I thought it was great that I could get aContinue reading “Marijuana”

Smells

Some of my very favorites: Newborn baby smell. Doesn’t last for long. Unspoiled. Japanese villages food stalls. New cut lumber. Old car smell. As opposed to the clean, factory-generated new car smell. I’m talking an old Rolls Royce or Bentley Town Car that has endured five kids, three grandchildren and cartons upon cartons of DunhillsContinue reading “Smells”

Learn Something New Everyday

That is what we all do, until we expire. At least some people do. Some people never learn. Tourons. Tourist morons. A word which greatly reduces the length of my personal description of these fools, which is stupid-dumbass-losers-from-loser-parents-and loser-grandparents-and-whom-I-hope-suffer-a-slow-humiliating-and-excruciating-death. But that’s just me. The US has asked the Israelis not to respond with rage asContinue reading “Learn Something New Everyday”

Real or Fake?

Genuine versus an imitation. How about imitation crab? Have you seen this white rubber painted with a color that resembles the unmistakable orange-pink hues of mercurochrome. I prefer big meaty King Crab legs. Egg Beaters. I know egg yolks are bad for you, but I figure I might eat less than a dozen eggs inContinue reading “Real or Fake?”

Yet Another Sign

That we are losing it. Netherlands is proposing a ban on smoking weed outside in the red light district That’s like trying to ban drinking at Mardi Gras. It was never legally allowed outside in the past, but now it is a big deal. Illegal prostitution was never a problem in Der Wallen, as theContinue reading “Yet Another Sign”
