Close Call

So I decide to brave the traffic and the impending Winter Storm of the Century if you believe the forecasters, and headed north on I-75 to the humane society which I represent, and on  the way, I spied a new building sitting out on its own. I could see kennels and a large play areaContinue reading “Close Call”

I Can’t Resist

Evidently an executive from Nike was caught getting oral service from a subordinate in a gymnasium. Just do it. I know there are people who follow and read my daily blog, so didn’t you see where I wrote against going to any third-world countries? Fuck, our own country isn’t safe. What the hell made youContinue reading “I Can’t Resist”

Substitutions

In my life I substituted lies for truth. I replaced long-term meaningful relationships with loyal, loving women with meaningless one-night stands with faceless strangers. I replaced trust and safety with irresponsibility and total lack of reason. But I always knew better. And that, I believe, frustrated my parents most of all. There’s a line inContinue reading “Substitutions”

The Word Unspoken…

Is the word uneaten. My big brother taught me that at the tender age of 8. I have always spoken with grace and intellect, and others immediately gravitated towards me because I was confident and loquacious. Especially the shy kids. I don’t sugarcoat the fact that I was very much insulated to the whole ethnicityContinue reading “The Word Unspoken…”

New Friends

I had a great time performing for the Symphony @Centerville Nursing Home today. I was supposed to have three acts, but both were unable to help, so Maddogg did the 90-minute show and had a blast doing so. As always, I made a few new friends along the way including Norma, a lovely soul whoContinue reading “New Friends”

Richie Havens Was Right

What on Earth possessed an American citizen from the third-world country of Michigan to a) go to Saudi Arabia, and b) trust strangers to deliver threatening words of the government to? Dumbass. Those strangers were none other than police just waiting for a) an American dumbass, and 2) a chance to fuck with the MostContinue reading “Richie Havens Was Right”

Tell Me Why

The United States just do not match up with other football-playing countries. Granted, we got a later start than other countries, but hey, this is the U.S.A. we are talking about. When I was playing in an English Youth Football league, I was the only American selected to the All-Star club, which was total bullshit.Continue reading “Tell Me Why”

The Envelope Please…

The award for luckiest dumbass of the millennium has to go to the knucklehead who “fell” from the Carnival Cruise Line ship into the Gulf of Mexico. He spent fifteen hours in the warm, shark infested waters before being found and rescued. The motive is still under question, as a spokesperson for the cruise linesContinue reading “The Envelope Please…”

What am I Thankful For?

Let’s start by beating the same old drums like Keith Moon pounded his Ludwigs. Loud. Educators: Pay them. Healthcare workers: Pay them. Stop here for a second. One group ensures there IS a future for us to enjoy, and the other group does their best to prolong our existence here. If those aren’t things weContinue reading “What am I Thankful For?”

The Break-in

When I was living in my nice condo in Las Vegas I was doing quite well taking care of myself, and if I didn’t do a good job, the three women who lived in  our four-plex babied and mothered me, so life was good. I had this girl I met at the Sahara come homeContinue reading “The Break-in”
