I feel a mini-rant coming on… I hate ill-mannered people. Hate is a strong word, but its cause I lack the vocabulary to properly and articulately emanate my visceral contempt for those that lack manners. There is an expression that “good manners cost nothing,” so the usual broke people excuses hold no weight there. Manners […]
So the new appointed US Attorney General has just been caught lying under oath during his confirmation hearings… and you expect me to ever tell anyone in “authority” the truth…ever… yeah…ok The Attorney General of the United States is the head of the country’s Department Of Justice (DOJ). In effect he is the head law […]
Recently I wrote an article titled “Plans Are Made To Be Broken.” If you did not see the piece, by all means go back and read it. The quick summary is essentially that life causes us to have to re-mix, amend and break even the best laid plans. The many circumstances outside of our control […]

If you own a television or have access to the Internet, negativity appears to be around every corner… at your door step… in your living room… eating your food and drinking your liquor. If you have not already given up on people in […]
I am not the smartest guy in the world, but one thing I learned long ago is that someone cannot tell on you if no one knows your business I do not believe in confession, but the last time I told on myself was when I was 100% sure the Statute of Limitations had expired. […]
I was asked recently why I write. My immediate response was because I can’t sing… I mean this sardonic wit isn’t just going to write itself… I get asked the question, in some variation, often and most people are more inquisitive as to why I write so much and so often without apparently getting […]
