She was from the jungles of Brazil. No town or city name. My feeble attempts at conversing bore no fruit, but when our gaze met, everything else, and I mean everything else, melted away. There was nothing in this world more important than finding my way next to her and her round, warm body. SheContinue reading “Zula”

Style
I am often asked what style or genre my writing is. I honestly don’t know how to answer that question. I believe in my book EMOTIONS! Not your Mama’s ABC’s! I have created an entirely new genre. I took the short story and made it into a short-short story, and the final product is theContinue reading “Style”
Closing Time
I worked in food service for several decades and closed many an establishment. I worked my way up from dishwasher to starred chef and at that level, I had a Chef Tournant whose staff would close and secure my kitchen. If I was on hand for closing, it was for a special occasion, or IContinue reading “Closing Time”
Thumb Tripping
Hitchhiking. You just don’t see it anymore. It used to be a means of transporting one’s self to points unknown with a complete stranger. I know, not because I ever had to hitch a ride to go somewhere, but because I was the guy who would stop and pick up whoever had their thumbs out.Continue reading “Thumb Tripping”
Problem Solved
Some Pennsylvania high school students are organizing a walk-out from their school because the world is spinning faster than they can catch up. Being forced to share bathroom facilities with transgender females doesn’t work for them. This is a problem and it won’t just be confined to the Quaker State. Make a third bathroom; forContinue reading “Problem Solved”
Everybody Loses
That dumbass Kim Jong-un from North Korea is once again talking shit about using his nuclear weapons. Talk about someone with penis-envy. Used to be, the only time you fucked with the United States of America was if you had a death wish. Then we got cocky and imperialistic. Vietnam 1 USA 0. I amContinue reading ” Everybody Loses”
Turn the Page
OK, Miley Cyrus, I’ll give it to you. You are persistent. You, or the people responsible for your public image, have tried putting you in every outfit imaginable, trying to showcase the very little you were blessed with, and it hasn’t worked. Less is not better (or more). Eat something. Three words for you. KeepContinue reading “Turn the Page”
Not on the Menu
I was on the road with a national home cookin’ restaurant chain in the early nineties and on my first assignment I drove to a very small town in northern Alabama. I would never have picked this place unless I thought this move was good for my career. I actually lived pretty well for theContinue reading “Not on the Menu”
Worlds Apart
As the rise of antisemitism spreads throughout The Greatest Country on Earth (pardon me while I have a good belly laugh), our progress as a civilization appears to have hit one of the buried Ukrainian landmines (Hey remember that war? It’s still going on!). We are in a downward spiral, and it is not hardContinue reading “Worlds Apart”
See What Happens?
When I take a week off from posting blogs? For starters, my Manchester United Red Devils continue to flail helplessly in the quicksand that has become the reign of Erik Ten Hag. It seems like rather than accept responsibility, he thinks he can fire/trade his way to molding a team in his image. But soContinue reading “See What Happens?”
