It’s a beautiful sunny day here in southern Ohio but the forecast for tomorrow is snow. Just thirteen miles north, the City of Dayton has announced there will be intermittent closures of several of their roads. If you live near Dayton, you know it is more feasible to announce that there are intermittent openings. TheContinue reading “The Way I See It”

Teamwork
Our man DJT has turned his attention to one of the world’s greatest problems and a real threat to global annihilation. He has signed a bill to ban male athletes that are genetically altered from participating in girls and women’s sports. This is a subject I dare not broach with my wife, the Domestic Despot,Continue reading “Teamwork”
Standards
They should be just what they sound like; set, immovable, intractable and not to be trifled with and avoiding, at all costs, the possibility of lowering your standards. I used to joke to my golf buddies that as much mistrust I have of the medical profession (business), I would still rather have a doctor doContinue reading “Standards”
When All Else Fails…
What do you do when you have to accomplish something and you have tried everything imaginable to no avail? Most people will stop at what they think are their limitations. Parents tell us (as all parents should tell their children) that we can “accomplish anything if we put our minds to it.” They aren’t lying.Continue reading “When All Else Fails…”
Relax
The point spread for the college football national championship game between the infidels from Ohio State vs. God’s chosen gladiators of the gridiron, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, has been posted. You can tell I’m impartial. Nine and a half points. So all the gambling “experts” have stated that the Buckeyes will easily defeat theContinue reading “Relax”
Baby its Cold Outside…
But it’s freezing in your heart. To quote a great songwriter (me). We got about eight inches of snow in the last 24 hours and its still coming down at noon EST. My two doggies, Arizona weather-weenies, are none too pleased. So, I’m checking out the news which I have not visited in some timeContinue reading “Baby its Cold Outside…”
Glory United!
Of course I had to lead off with that. Manchester United 2 Manchester City 1. With as much crap I tend to pile on the squad for a lack of fire in their play, it seems that new manager Ruben Amorim has lit a fire under the lads. I was one who pointed out theContinue reading “Glory United!”
Wingman
Everybody needs one. Maverick had Iceman and my high school wingman (at least in ninth grade anyway) was a girl actually, named Molly Fletcher. We both lived in government housing on the US Air Force base Upper Heyford about seventy miles from London. Her father worked as some sort of “defense consultant” and my stepfatherContinue reading “Wingman”
Spanking Your Children
I know, I know. A lot of people bow up and get all froggy when they hear the “s” word, but truth be told (which I will do on occasion), there are some kids that could use a little extra somethin’-somethin’ when it comes to their discipline routine. And everyone knows who they are. GoContinue reading “Spanking Your Children”
Mere Observations
So the machinists at Boeing are continuing their walkout, demanding a new contract. Their planes are falling apart and dropping out of the sky on a daily basis, so why not reward them with more money? I’ll take the train, thanks. September home sales were highest in years, but how is anyone able to buyContinue reading “Mere Observations”
