Well, Daylight Savings Time begins again from now until Nov. 1. And of course, the $64,000 question is why do we keep doing this? Can’t we keep time permanent? We created it. It’s not like it’s moving mountains. The first week or so during this period is the worst time for people. Our bodies are off their system. Statistically, thereContinue reading “Daylight Savings Time Begins”

I Ate The Big Arch From McDonald’s So You Don’t Have To
I normally don’t eat at McDonald’s anymore. It’s not because I don’t like a good quarter pounder, it’s just that their prices have skyrocketed and they don’t offer many deals as other fast food places do. If I do get anything, it’s usually something off the value menu. I was going to try the BigContinue reading “I Ate The Big Arch From McDonald’s So You Don’t Have To”
A Time To Die And A Time To Heal
Four years ago today, I began what would become the first day of the rest of my life. On Feb. 3, 2022, my girlfriend, Kerry Kerr, died of an illness. We had been spending time apart because Covid and some other issues that made it hard for us to be together. It pissed me off because two years earlier on the sameContinue reading “A Time To Die And A Time To Heal”
A Day Of Reckoning Is Coming
I’ll begin this post with a history lesson. Edward Joseph O’Hare was known as “Easy Eddie.” He was also a lawyer who worked for mobster Al Capone through his rise in the 1920s. However, by the early 1930s, O’Hare had a change of heart. His only son, Edward Henry “Butch” O’Hare was growing up and about to enterContinue reading “A Day Of Reckoning Is Coming”
Happy Festivus!
Wishing you all a very Happy Festivus! And this is the second time I’m having to write this post because the previous one was deleted by mistake so my grievances is a little more right now. This has been one of the craziest fucking years of my life. I started the year with my mom’s funeral followed by getting so sick for the worst time ever in years. IContinue reading “Happy Festivus!”
The Am Meisten Bechissen Christmas Commercia And What It Says About Us
Next to the Super Bowl, the Christmas holiday season produces some of the most memorable commercials. Some are remembered for the wrong reasons. Folgers tried to duplicate the tone of “Peter Comes Homes From Christmas” which premiered 40 years ago in 1985 with an updated version. The original featured a college-aged young man arriving at his childhood home on ChristmasContinue reading “The Am Meisten Bechissen Christmas Commercia And What It Says About Us”
Get Knocked Down; Get Back Up
Well, I got some bad news today. While it’s not as bad as some of the things going on around the world, it’s bad to me. I’m so sick of people constantly belitting someone’s problems in the grand scheme of the world. C.S. Lewis once said, “The pain I feel now is the happiness IContinue reading “Get Knocked Down; Get Back Up”
If It Doesn’t Sound Too Real To Be Good, It Probably Isn’t
Let’s be honest. Just about anyone with any common sense could’ve told you over 10 years ago a lot of the social media posts and chatter was from bots. When South Park did an entire episode over sponsored content, it wasn’t the best, but it was a warning sign. The newspaper company I worked for had started doing this around 2013. The concept they proposed was people paying us to write stories about them. ButContinue reading “If It Doesn’t Sound Too Real To Be Good, It Probably Isn’t”
What An Outrageous Fucked-Up Time To Be Alive, Right?!
I’ve lived in my house nearly 20 years. It’s right across the street from a cattle and horse ranch. I’ve smelt both bullshit and horseshit for two decades and it still smells worse coming out of Washington, D.C. About a week ago, we thought he had died and so many people were happy. The airContinue reading “What An Outrageous Fucked-Up Time To Be Alive, Right?!”
Please Help “Burger King Mom”
Every now and again, we all seem to work a job where we’re the only one on staff making it impossible to even take a restroom break for a few minutes. A few weeks ago, Nykia Hamilton, 25, went viral when a video of her working all by herself at a Burger King in Columbia,Continue reading “Please Help “Burger King Mom””
