Dude, Where’s Mitch McConnell?

Today is July 5 and for anyone counting it’s been three exact weeks (21 days) since Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) was reportedly found unconscious and rushed to a hospital. Yet despite reports he is on the mend, there are concerns that he is in very poor health or even still unconscious. There has been someContinue reading “Dude, Where’s Mitch McConnell?”

Have The Semiquincentennial Celebration You Deserve

With July 4 on a Saturday for America’s 250th celebration and the U.S. this far in the World Cup as everyone seems to love what’s been happening the last few weeks, it should’ve been a greater moment of celebration. Yet the Freedom 250 Great American State Fair is on its way to being a disasterContinue reading “Have The Semiquincentennial Celebration You Deserve”

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”

Trump Whiffs As America Sinks

Nero never did play the fiddle while Rome burned because there was no such instrument at the time and he was about 30 miles away. And Marie Antoinette never said, “Let them eat cake!” about the poor in French and “cake” was never referring to the burnt bread crisp that are almost always discarded.  ButContinue reading “Trump Whiffs As America Sinks”

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”

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!”

Things Have To Get Better, Because We May Not Survive If They Get Worse

For the most part, I’ve always believed it’s going to get worse before it gets better. But the question you always want to know is – how much worse can it get?   In any normal society, the massacre at Columbine High School back in 1999 would’ve been the breaking point. But no matter how many predominantly white schools suffer massacres, it seems the powers that be react by doing everythingContinue reading “Things Have To Get Better, Because We May Not Survive If They Get Worse”
