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”

Maybe It’s Time
As of today, we have had forty-five presidents lead our country. Zero women have held that office, and the failed campaign of Hillary Clinton saved us all from just another one of the good ‘ole boys dressed in a Brooks Brothers power suit. In our zeal to show a fake sense of inclusion, we actuallyContinue reading “Maybe It’s Time”
A Little Something Extra
I was involved in one position or another in restaurants in my journey. Part of that journey was as a tipped employee. I loved that position better than any I held afterwards, even after I ascended to the Executive Chef position in a starred French restaurant. Why? I was single and working in a majorContinue reading “A Little Something Extra”
What Did I Miss?
I just caught a glimpse of a picture of Nancy Pelosi and I love it because she always looks like she just set the doobie down and waved the smoke away with her hands, and then turned towards the camera. I really do like the salty bird, though. I like anybody who’s not afraid toContinue reading “What Did I Miss?”
Over the Top
Don’t get me started about people who do not tip employees who perform a service for them. Now, if you just stopped there, we would just look at you, roll our eyes, and think what a cheap asshole. But no. It’s when you try and justify your moral ascendancy, in the rarified air ABOVE mortalContinue reading “Over the Top”
Where Did it Go?
It was here just a minute ago. My memory. Despite my wife’s inaccurate recollections, I am just now starting to notice small signs that my once precise eidetic memory is slipping. There are TWO THINGS that I always remember. Always have and always will. Who I owe money to and who owes me money. 100%Continue reading “Where Did it Go?”
Love/Hate
I used to love it when the first SweetTart out of the roll was a cherry one. I hated moving from country to country as an Air Force family, but I really loved meeting and exchanging with new peoples and cultures. I love dogs, but hated it when I had to undergo a very painfulContinue reading “Love/Hate”
Raise Your Hand
Anyone on this planet with access to the news believe that Putin, that ignorant, paranoid little bald lawn gnome, might have had something to do with Alexey Navalny’s death raise your hands. Come on, up with them. Straight in the air. Now lower your arm forty-five degrees. You get it. And you are a TOTALContinue reading “Raise Your Hand”
Here We Go Again
In this dangerous world, our nation’s defense is Priority One. Or at least it should be. What do you do when you want to attract the best recruits possible to join our naval forces? Lower the standards, of course. The business sector has been doing it forever to attract workers who just don’t want toContinue reading “Here We Go Again”
Our Skill Set
We each have one that is just as unique to us as our fingerprints. We learn them, we inherit them, and we assimilate them our entire lives. Then our role is over and a new cast goes through the motions of mouthing the words and playing the parts as the show must go on. IContinue reading “Our Skill Set”
