‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ May Still Have Some Life Left In It

It never surprises me that the people who denounced “cancel culture” and screamed “Fuck your feelings!” have always been the most insensitive. Decades ago, it was “America: Love it or Leave it!” during the Vietnam War era. Following 9/11 as the Wars in Iraq and Afghanistan raged on, people screamed, “If you don’t like it,Continue reading “‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’ May Still Have Some Life Left In It”

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”

Peace And Love To The People Of Minneapolis And Minnesota

It’s almost becoming a daily if not weekly routine in America where someone goes into a school or school event and opens fire killing and injuring people. This time it happened at a parochial school, Annunciation Catholic School, in the Minneapolis area where two children, ages 8 and 10, were killed. There are 17 peopleContinue reading “Peace And Love To The People Of Minneapolis And Minnesota”

‘Late Show With Stephen Colbert’ Cancelation Is Not An Odd Coincidence

Nowadays, it seems just about anyone with some recording material and a website domain name can become a podcast celebrity. Times change and we as a a society have to change with them. Therefore, I can see that we may be in the autumn years of the talk show format. Do we really need celebritiesContinue reading “‘Late Show With Stephen Colbert’ Cancelation Is Not An Odd Coincidence”

Happy Birthday, U.S. Army! And Happy Flag Day! And No Kings!

Today is the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army and that’s the only birthday that really counts today. (Ok, maybe someone out there reading this has a special day and I say, Happy Birthday to you!) But let’s not forget the reason we needed to form a national army in the first place. The AmericanContinue reading “Happy Birthday, U.S. Army! And Happy Flag Day! And No Kings!”

This Is What People Want

The greatest myth of the American ideology is that even though “All men are created equal,” no one is willing to share their toys with other people. We’ve always wanted inequality. Yes, people, well…men, might be created equal in theory, but after we’re born we’re on our own. Currently the National Guard was at aContinue reading “This Is What People Want”

Hands Across America Came And Went Into The Ether On This Day

There’s probably a reason a lot of people had forgotten about Hands Across America until filmmaker Jordan Peele used it as a plot point in his 2019 horror movie US. You, see, Hands Across America was one of many greatest promotion and fund-raising blunders of the latter quarter of the 20th Century. Burger King hadContinue reading “Hands Across America Came And Went Into The Ether On This Day”

Don’t Give Trump Anymore Press

Ten years ago on the The Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore, they discussed that the reason Donald Trump is getting so much attention is because people keep talking about him. This was back when he was one of many candidates (Ted Cruz and Jeb Bush among them) and considered the dark horse candidate. Granted, weContinue reading “Don’t Give Trump Anymore Press”

Peace And Love Be With Victims Of Columbine On This Difficult Day

Even though it’s Easter, it’s also a grim day for the people of Littleton, Colo. where the Columbine High School Massacre happened on this day, April 20, 1999. For a time, it was the deadliest school shooting in U.S. history. And despite the massacre, very little was done correctly. Charlton Heston was the president ofContinue reading “Peace And Love Be With Victims Of Columbine On This Difficult Day”
