Come Again?

I think about five or six days ago I posted a warning about how the use of cyberwarfare might be part of Iran’s battle plans and now they are screwing around with our missile defense systems. Even an old piker like me knows that can’t be real good. I’ve heard that life imitates art andContinue reading “Come Again?”

What’s Good For the Goose…

In this era of big-time money in college athletics, there are several new millionaires populating the rosters, and not just the players. Coaches. Big Money. Kirby Smart at Georgia. Lane Kiffin at LSU. Lincoln Riley at USC. These are some of the biggest names in the profession and when successful, they generate hundreds of millionsContinue reading “What’s Good For the Goose…”

So You’re Telling Me There’s a Chance…

It is a rainy day in southern Ohio which is one of the reasons it is so green and beautiful once spring and summer hit and I am practicing for an open mic at a popular Dayton pub tomorrow night. We only get a 30-minute timeslot so here are the songs I plan to play:Continue reading “So You’re Telling Me There’s a Chance…”

Hear Ye! Hear Ye!

The BBC is reporting on a deadly shooting in an Austin, Texas bar that left two dead and fourteen wounded. This act of EXTREME violence is being called a “possible act of terrorism.” I have questions (of course). What the hell ISN’T a “possible act of terrorism” anymore? What the hell are the BBC doingContinue reading “Hear Ye! Hear Ye!”

Don’t Blink

1973. An awesome year and the last time the United States government conscripted young men into our military war machine. A headline read Donald Jr. and Eric Trump “would be exempt from military draft for one key reason…” Could the reason be they are yellow-belly chickenshits like their father who dodged the draft five times?Continue reading “Don’t Blink”

Nothing is Possible

Not anymore. Not for everyone. Add Goldie Hawn, once one of the cutest faces in all of celebrityhood (did I just invent another word?) to the list of desperate old buzzards clinging fiercely to their last vestiges of youth with beauty-destroying cosmetic surgery. Artificial cheekbones. Plastic skin pulled tight. Duck lips. Sad. James Blair possessesContinue reading “Nothing is Possible”

Couldn’t Do it Without You

You mean to tell me with all his billions and all the billions more he and Elon Musk have stolen so far from the American people, he has to wear a store bought wig? Cold. When I saw the tag I had to double and triple-check just to make sure, and one thing I haveContinue reading “Couldn’t Do it Without You”

Baby, it’s Cold Outside

What do you do to escape the constant bitter cold in Norway? Many people embrace the cold; Alpine sports are big there. But not the politicians. Epstein Island. Yup. Not just America. My girl Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem fucking up again trying to shut down the TSA security checkpoints. You remember thoseContinue reading “Baby, it’s Cold Outside”

Ask the Wizard

It’s about an hour away from the president’s State of the Union address and I am awaiting it with the same anticipation I had when waiting for the next Jerry Lewis movie in the 50’s and 60’s—I couldn’t wait to see what that zany whackenheimer was going to say or do next… {NOTE: since IContinue reading “Ask the Wizard”

Play it Again

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”
