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”
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”
A One…And a Two…
So what do you do if your kid spends all their time on their phone and the rest of the time on their computer? Take your pick: Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok. All day long. All night long. Somebody’s got to shoulder the blame for the crappy job of parenting. Certainly not the parents. Sue theContinue reading “A One…And a Two…”
Ready…Get Set…
Another chink in the armor… The brilliant scholars at Harvard University, considered (by themselves) to be the highest echelon of higher learning on Planet Earth, look like a bunch of blowhard dumbasses (again) because they had an ORIGINAL Magna Carta mistakenly identified as a replica just hanging around and not one of these self-called geniusesContinue reading “Ready…Get Set…”
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”
Royal Misconceptions
Even my buddies the British don’t believe in any of the old royal concepts as they relate to the human condition in the 21st century. Not anymore. They have cell phones. Ordained? By whom? A God that nobody can agree on? And while all the attention has been focused on our horny old president, theContinue reading “Royal Misconceptions”
