One thing that has almost astonished me is how some columns just write themselves. Not the ones that are more or less just block and copied whole hog, but where some clueless S.O.B. is just so damn dumb, that it really requires no effort to write the column. Let’s take a look at Jimmeh Carter’s […]

Trump military/MOH news

A group of four-stars sent an op-ed letter to the New York Times Friday excoriating Trump for ‘dereliction of duty’ on January 6. Brief checking shows that some of the same names have showed up in the past, such as on the letter in which 200+ senior officers endorsed Biden over Trump in the 2020 […]

What The Actual – Wait!! Is That Pancakes I Hear?

Anyone besides me remember those days in grade school when you were kids, and the teacher said something like “we’re having our atomic bomb drill today”, so you were supposed to hide under your desk, get next to the nearest windows and squat down on the floor, or all go down to the school’s basement […]

I originally was not going to post this, but a couple things changed my mind. LC’s views are just as […]

Lies Like A Damned Dog….

Why can’t we trust the guy in the White House? Watch the video. Whatever falls out of his mouth these days is only loosely connected to the real world – very loosely, at best – and most likely so far from the real world inhabited by the rest of us that he is not on […]

Thursdays Are For Cooking

Okay, it’s nearly high summer and the livin’ isn’t easy this year, is it?  Still, we should be able to get some kind of good out of it, considering that no one is taking the mopes in a Certain City seriously any more. It’s a pathetic time when you realize that your cat or dog […]

No Need To Panic – Pt. II

Self-sufficiency…. That’s a word that should have some real meaning but seems to be fading in this so-called “modern” world.  Everywhere you may think to look, people are far less self-sufficient than their grandparents or great-grandparents and rely almost entirely on “other” to supply their needs. It’s far worse in cities than you can imagine, […]
