We Love You, Stephen Colbert!

CBS and its parent company Skydance Media can rationalize it as much as they want but canceling The Late Show with Stephen Colbert is politically motivated.  This is the type of shady strong arm deals that the President is used to. Yes streaming services are usurping the old fashioned broadcast networks. It was bound toContinue reading “We Love You, Stephen Colbert!”

The Leopard Has Severe Indigestion

I found this image above on a comment section so kudos to whomever made it.  I don’t remember where the phrase “I didn’t think the leopard would eat my face” and variants came from. A quick Google search said it was something that became famous on Twitter back during the Fall of 2015 when aContinue reading “The Leopard Has Severe Indigestion”

This Is America, Always Has Been But It Doesn’t Always Have To Be

At the end of the day, this will be the lasting legacy of the Baby Boomers and early Gen Xers. You didn’t work hard for Civil Righrs. That was your parents and elders. And you all know it. Not one single official Baby Boomer was of voting age when the Votings Rights and Civil RightsContinue reading “This Is America, Always Has Been But It Doesn’t Always Have To Be”

A Picture IS Worth 1,000 Words

There are several things certain in sports. At a baseball game the nearest kid always gets the homerun or foul ball. In the mid-1980s, my family went to an Atlanta Braves game. We had seats on or near the front row near first base. A foul play was hit line drive toward us. And thisContinue reading “A Picture IS Worth 1,000 Words”

I Watched ‘Melania’ So You Don’t Have To (And You Really Shouldn’t)

To call Melania is a documentary is an insult. Even though movies like Nanook of the North and Super Size Me have been exposed for faking a lot of the content, they pale in comparison. And to call it a vanity project is an insult to all the vanity projects Jennifer Lopez and Will Smith make. That’s how bad it is.   Supposedly, this “documentary” was filmed over threeContinue reading “I Watched ‘Melania’ So You Don’t Have To (And You Really Shouldn’t)”

From Out Of The Frying Pan And Into The Dumpster Fire

I’d thought I’d never admit this but we’d be better off with Kristi Noem as the Secretary of the Homeland Security. But she’s on her way out and her possibly replacement isn’t any better by a longshot.   Since he became a U.S. Senator after three terms in the House of Representative, Markwayne Mullin has been walking around Capitol Hill like O’Bannion from Dazed and Confused. He thinks he’s a badass and constantly trying to start fightsContinue reading “From Out Of The Frying Pan And Into The Dumpster Fire”

Are Trump’s Days Really, Finally Unequivocally Close To An End?

Recently, the President spoke at a factory mill in Rome, Ga. The news is trying to say that “thousands” of people turned out. If they are included people protesting, maybe so. But pictures don’t lie. There were only 300 max there and that’s being very liberal.   It probably 250 give or take. Some people are arguing that since it was held at around 4 p.m. EST on aContinue reading “Are Trump’s Days Really, Finally Unequivocally Close To An End?”

Welcome To 5150 Get-Off-My-Lawn!

This is some property east of where I live about five miles give or take. I’ve past by this property numerous times over the years and and it was just another country home.   Yet the last few months, all this has sprung up. There’s razor barb wire along the fence where there’s black walls and warning signs. Even worse, if you look closer at the houseContinue reading “Welcome To 5150 Get-Off-My-Lawn!”

A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Super Bowl

No matter what happened on Sunday at the Super Bowl, those on the right were going to act like it was a win for them. There’s a line from the movie The American President where a character says, “How do you have patience for people who claim they love America, but clearly can’t stand Americans?”  And I think it’s getting worse now. The SuperContinue reading “A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Super Bowl”
