John Cena had a good run. But like all good things… Now that he is hand-stitching his hair to his scalp, it’s time to call it a day, Champ. He says his body is screaming at him to retire. I hope he listens to it. Every so often Florida screws up and does something right…Continue reading “Always the Last to Know”

Warning Signs
California has issued a warning to people to “stay out of the water” due to tides and dangerous rip currents. But if they are still alive, I would bet that a few of my old surf buddies are paddling out as we speak… That’s like driving all the way to Wally World only to findContinue reading “Warning Signs”
The Way of the World
She wanted to be famous. Now ol’ what’s-her-name from Tempe, Arizona (my old stomping grounds) is pushing up cacti. Dead in her teens. Thanks once again goes to TikTok. In this corner, weighing (according to himself) a svelte 180 pounds of all muscle, is the president of the United States. In this corner, outweighed byContinue reading “The Way of the World”
Numbers Do Lie
Our Chief Executive is in the process of revising our census for the United States of America. After eliminating all the illegal immigrants and their descendants, it is now official: there are 42 people living in America. A couple of douchebags posing as parents in Barcelona, Spain weren’t going to let a silly little thingContinue reading “Numbers Do Lie”

A Puncher’s Chance
I saw a clip of Queen Maxima (now THAT is a badass Queen’s name!) of Netherlands doing her best Donald Trump impersonation and what was hilarious is that she does a better DJT than he does. Being a former French chef, I find the topic of celebrity chefs to be a totally American contrivance, fueledContinue reading “A Puncher’s Chance”
Documentaries
I started about a year or so ago when they were going through the writer’s strike in Hollywood. If you never believed in the power of the written word, never was its absence more felt than in the film industry. Not as easy as you thought? Just get a couple stars, some cool cars, explosions,Continue reading “Documentaries”
Through the Microscope…
The Associated Press, that trusted paragon of journalistic excellence, says that the president has stated “Japan will invest 550 billion dollars in the U.S.” at his direction. “Investing.” That’s a nicer word than say “ransom.” This money is being paid to reduce the recently-imposed tariffs placed on the Chinese, and now that they have madeContinue reading “Through the Microscope…”
A New Low
Just when I thought I’d seen it all, the Mattel toy company giant comes out with a “Type 1 diabetic Barbie.” So does this mark the official “acceptance” that with all the money and resources available to the world’s medical professionals, that they are giving up completely on finding a cure? As evidenced by theirContinue reading “A New Low”
Stay With Me
The tiny monarchy of Sweida, formerly known as Swaziland, is located near the southern Syrian border. Not your typical garden spot and not only that, but reports describe “extrajudicial killings, torture, abductions, and looting—pointing to a broader pattern of targeted abuses.” Perfect. Now we know where we can reach our next batch of deportees. HeContinue reading “Stay With Me”
