Happy Indigenous Peoples Day

I want to wish everyone a Happy Indigenous Peoples Day. Yes, yes, I know that the current Presidential administration wants us to celebrate Columbus Day, but the irony of it all is lost on so many people. It wasn’t until 1934 where the Knights of Columbus and Italian civic leaders wanted a holiday as peopleContinue reading “Happy Indigenous Peoples Day”

Happy National Coming Out Day!

I want to wish everyone out there a Happy National Coming Out Day! I know things have been hard on many these last few years as the Religious Right and conservatives are using it for a political maneuver. People in the LGBTQIA community aren’t the problem. It’s the intolerant people who can’t stand people whoContinue reading “Happy National Coming Out Day!”

Diff’rent Strokes For Diff’rent Folks

I forgot that we’re in the middle of Hispanic Heritage Month. I know a lot of people would wonder why we should care because so many Americans are of Hispanic heritage. The latest criticism is that Bad Bunny, aka Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio , is performing at the 2026 Super Bowl half-time. He was bornContinue reading “Diff’rent Strokes For Diff’rent Folks”

Peace And Love Be With The Great People Of Michigan

I may not be a very religious person, but I feel that everyone should be able to go to a place of worship and feel safe. If there’s one place on this planet where violence or even bad thoughts are not welcome it should be churches, synagogues, temples and mosques. Sadly, we’ve seen too muchContinue reading “Peace And Love Be With The Great People Of Michigan”

Class Dismissed For Ryan Walters

When I was covering education in Oklahoma schools about 15 years ago, it was ranked 17th in the nation and then the next year in 2011, it was ranked 11th. Not bad for a state that is often the butt of jokes. Yet, when I was covering education, I noticed faculty/staff and administrators were moreContinue reading “Class Dismissed For Ryan Walters”

I’m The Kinda Guy Who Laughs At A Funeral. Can’t Understand What I Mean?

As a human being, you’re allowed to have whatever emotions you want compared to the situation. When my stepfather passed away from cancer in 2005, he got buried in a cemetery near a church in BFE Georgia in the Appalachian foothills. Google Maps didn’t exist and the road sign had been stolen so the hearseContinue reading “I’m The Kinda Guy Who Laughs At A Funeral. Can’t Understand What I Mean?”

No Empathy Allowed

Let m start by saying, I don’t condone gun violence. Yes, I own firearms. But I don’t walk around all the time showing off my guns, nor do I think it’s always the answer to everything. Yes, you should call 911 and use guns as a last line of defense. Charlie Kirk died on Sept.Continue reading “No Empathy Allowed”

Bish Be Trippin’ All Da Time, Mah!

As a supporter of the LGBTQIA community, I don’t believe that homosexuality is a choice. Yet, so far this month, I can can understand why some men decide just to be with other men. If there weas a Bang, Smash, Dash consisting of Kendra Licari, Phillies Karen, and Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, most men wouldContinue reading “Bish Be Trippin’ All Da Time, Mah!”
