In the “New Normal” what do you do when your popularity poll numbers are embarrassingly, irreversibly low? You stop taking the poll, silly. If that doesn’t make you swell with national pride, what does? Just another “thanks, but no thanks.” Greenland has turned down an offer from the United States who offered medical care forContinue reading “Play it Again”

Your Guess is as Good as Mine
Maybe even better. Kid Rock had one good song (Cowboy), and he thinks he’s a music icon now. The song that was released in 1998. Age does not make you iconic. If he thinks for one second that he can command ticket prices of $5,000 for his upcoming tour, well then this extra from theContinue reading “Your Guess is as Good as Mine”
That Explains It
So that joke of a Supreme Court, supposedly an unbiased branch of our crumbling democracy, actually struck down some of the president’s tariffs and he’s not happy about it. Not one bit. So now, he’s closing his eyes and shooting. Everybody gets a tariff. 10% until he can think of a dumber move to make.Continue reading “That Explains It”
Crazy You Should Mention That
The political landscape in this country is a crumbling, unstable vestige of a democracy with entitled, crepe paper-skinned old buzzards aging out and turning senile before the eyes of the world. No wonder the newer generations have such a nihilistic view of the world. I would much rather see suicide rates go through the roofContinue reading “Crazy You Should Mention That”
Same Difference
He looks like a dumbass with a beard and then he shaves it off. Now he looks like a clean-shaven dumbass. Do you think anyone actually gives a shit Mr. Vice President? Kristi Noem is throwing her (ever-increasing) weight around again. Madame Secretary, four words for you. “Put down the fork.” Eat a salad nowContinue reading “Same Difference”
Remember?
You would go to a football game and at halftime, you might make it to the concession stand for a few snacks and beers, and when you got back, the marching bands were taking their turns stomping the field? Then halftime was over. Not anymore. Halftime has now been turned into a battleground of politicalContinue reading “Remember?”
Take Your Medicine/Super Bowl Critique
The venerable old Wall Street Journal asks: Where Did All The Cheap Restaurants Go? More of an observation than anything, but the only way to make money in the lower-end establishments is volume. High volume. It cures all ills on the Profit and Loss Statement: It lowers labor cost. It lowers operating costs. It lowersContinue reading “Take Your Medicine/Super Bowl Critique”
Never Surrender
Unless you have to. New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is endorsing Kathy Hochul’s bid for reelection as Governor. And he’s getting a load of shit for it. Why? Why is he endorsing her or why is he catching hell for it? He’s endorsing her because she has shown a willingness to work together withContinue reading “Never Surrender”
Wake Me When It’s Over
Los Angeles, the City of Angels, is the site of the latest group of anti-ICE protesters jumping up and getting froggy with Kristi Noem’s gang. My money is on ICE. They have guns, have shown that they will not hesitate to use them, and if they err, it ill be on the side of stomp-your-face-first-ask-questions-laterContinue reading “Wake Me When It’s Over”
Age is Just a Number
One of the Dumbass Doctors—Phil or Oz (I can’t remember which) has posited that with the age expectancy climbing, the first person who will reach 200 years of age in their lifetime has already been born. Can you friggin’ even imagine being two-hundred? If you are young, of course not. Hell, you probably can’t evenContinue reading “Age is Just a Number”
