I know the economy is bad but are people really so desperate one cent will break them? Every now and again, I’ll see these outrageously not-so-cheap bargains at stores. I saw a five-cent discount on Folgers coffee at a Dollar General. This is from Reasor’s in Tahlequah. Started as a regional family-owned store, it’s nowContinue reading “Come Back To The 5 & Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean”

You Say It’s Your Birthday, It’s My Birthday Too
On this day, Sept. 14, I would ask that you remember the great actor Sam Neill who was born on this day in 1947 and passed away in July. Please remember his friends and family. And it’s been 15 years since we lost Amy Winehouse. She was born on this date in 1983. We loveContinue reading “You Say It’s Your Birthday, It’s My Birthday Too”
It’s Not The Years; It’s The Mileage
Today is my last day at 47 and it was a doozy. I woke up in pain as usual and things went downhill. I dropped my breakfast sandwich on the floor and managed to spill some coffee on my left shoulder. It wasn’t too hot. So I had to nuke another sandwich in the microwave.Continue reading “It’s Not The Years; It’s The Mileage”
I’d Buy That For A Dollar
So you know who couldn’t resist pulling another bullshit lie out of his mouth. He said at the Republican Midterm Convention in Dallas if the Republicans keep the House of Representatives and Senate, every American will get a $5,000 dividend. First off, it’s illegal. Second, it would add up to $1.3 trillion if not moreContinue reading “I’d Buy That For A Dollar”
Remembering 9/11 25 Years Later
I’ve told people this time and time again. I was working as a newspaper reporter in Georgia at the Americus Times-Recorder. The office was about about 15 miles to Plains, Ga. where former President Jimmy Carter lived. I was the only reporter working at the time and I had a late night before covering aContinue reading “Remembering 9/11 25 Years Later”
Charlie Kirk Was No Hero
One year ago today, Charlie Kirk the co-founder of Turning Point USA, was killed while speaking at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah. Kirk was a very conservative figure on the far-right. His comments and thoughts were often very racist and sexist. He infamously said he would be worried if a black pilot of aContinue reading “Charlie Kirk Was No Hero”
‘Breaking Badly’ Satirical Mockumentary Or Case Study Of Entitled Narcissist?
The problem with people like Rachel Gunn is they never see any faults in anything they do. Not everyone can sing with a golden voice and not pitch a fastball near 100 mph.And not everyone can dance very well. For every Ginger Rogers, there’s an Elaine Benes kicking her legs as if they’re trying toContinue reading “‘Breaking Badly’ Satirical Mockumentary Or Case Study Of Entitled Narcissist?”
I Have A New Pet
For the past few weeks, this peahen has been hanging around my house. Since it’s been so hot and dry during this time, I set out water and dry cat food that it eats along with crumbled saltine crackers. My stepsister passed away from cancer in mid-April and I noticed a peahen around at theContinue reading “I Have A New Pet”
Sixth ‘Scary Movie’ Flick Isn’t The Shit, Just Shit
I loved the first two Scary Movie flicks even though the second one wasn’t as good but that could’ve been because of the rushed production. But there still was some great moments especially by Chris Elliott, the late Tim Curry and a scene where Shorty (Marlon Wayans) is rolled up in a bedsheet by aContinue reading “Sixth ‘Scary Movie’ Flick Isn’t The Shit, Just Shit”
Rest In Power Gloria Steinem
There’s probably a lot of people happy that Gloria Steinem has passed away. Feminism has always been a dirty F-word people on the right and left used to their advantages. Since I’m not a woman nor have I lived in an era where women couldn’t have credit cards or even bank accounts in their ownContinue reading “Rest In Power Gloria Steinem”
