No Excuses!
I’ve been lolly-gagging and dilly-dallying now for two years since I said I would write my second book, my first novel. I have titled it If Only…, and if you were following my blog way back then, here’s what I said: About the Book If Only… represents my first full-length novel. The bookContinue reading “No Excuses!”
The Man Who Would Be King
One of my favorite movies of all-time and an apt descriptor for King James, aka Lebron James, professional basketball star. Lebron is approaching the all-time NBA scoring record held by the much-revered Kareem Abdul Jabbar. Lebron is supposed to be here. He was anointed at age 16 and has pretty much lived up to theContinue reading “The Man Who Would Be King”
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.

What a fantastic forest green dress Brennan is wearing. Then, as I watched the man describing what is happening in his country, and how, with the U.S. leadingContinue reading “The Face of Pain”
God Saved the Queen
Rest well, Queen Elizabeth II. The Queen of the United Kingdom has ascended to her rightful place among the pantheon of world leaders. No matter what was happening in this tumultuous world, the Queen was always there, as steady as a rock, representing the United Kingdom with class and grace. When a young American boy,Continue reading “God Saved the Queen”
Numbers
Being “good with numbers” is pretty much a requirement for any successful businessperson. I don’t care to even think about how much money I wasted in my life. The amount would disgust some, but I don’t give a shit. It makes me smile. And it gave me true stories that others can only read about.Continue reading “Numbers”
Look Up
That is the unstoppable direction that the interest rates from the Bank of England are taking. They just raised their rate for the second time in three months. The country may appear unstable with all the seemingly knee-jerk rate hikes, but let’s call this what it is. The UK is taking the lead in theContinue reading “Look Up”
Can You Imagine?
Cassandra Prince was a nervous wreck on her first day on the job. The new Yale whiz-kid that landed the lucrative position as law clerk for Justice Jodi Foster, had the weight of a whole lot of people on her back. As her Mom had always stressed “It’s never enough. Give more. And whenContinue reading “Can You Imagine?”
