line at the grocery store and assorted patriots

Standing in line at the grocery store. A young woman with three young kids, panicking because she was $5 short buying groceries. It looked like food for her kids, not cigarettes and booze and movie tickets and the things  Senator Grassley thinks poor people spend money on – frivolously… I gave her $10, she cried … Continue reading line at the grocery store and assorted patriots →

broken men and their nukes

Two psychologically broken men wagging their nuke dicks to compensate for god knows what broke in them so completely. The world – minus the 32% who think trump is some kind of infallible fucking god – watches in a sad mix of horror and disbelief. Congress needs to do something about the American idiot. The … Continue reading broken men and their nukes →

This morning I woke up sober.

This morning I woke up sober. That means this year I’ve spent more New Years mornings sober than sick. The balance has shifted to the positive side and will hopefully stay there. I’ll never understand the appeal of the years waking up on the floor, surrounded by violent people. Drugged people, severely drunk people. Sick … Continue reading This morning I woke up sober. →

Khrushchev was right…

When I was a kid, existing in the constant shadow of the evil Soviet empire, I used to wonder how people could live like that. I used to wonder what it must be like to live under a totalitarian regime. A government that simply flat out didn’t care at all about its citizens. People were … Continue reading Khrushchev was right… →

Notable Events – Sports and Weather – NEWS

I realized recently that people really don’t know facts they know stories. They don’t study things. They accept sound bites and tales on CNN and Fox News. Ronald Reagan was a great president because his trickle down economics made the country better for all of us – swear to God. No idea whatsoever what Reagan’s … Continue reading Notable Events – Sports and Weather – NEWS →

Sounds of silence and a sinking ship

I woke up with the Sounds of Silence in my head. Not the Paul Simon version, the Disturbed version. The original, by Paul Simon, from the ‘60’s, was always, to me, quiet and reflective. A song about isolation, possibly confusion. Maybe a need to speak out against the machine, the growing madness. The song by … Continue reading Sounds of silence and a sinking ship →

White House’s Effort to battle Opiate addiction

  This is the person the Trump administration and Sessions DOJ has decided should head the White House efforts to stem the opioid crisis. The crisis that will kill at least 60,000, closer to 70,000 in 2018. That’s 180 people a day. If this was ISIS we would be at war, real war, not pretend … Continue reading White House’s Effort to battle Opiate addiction →

Code talkers and trump

Of all the outrageous bullshit we have been subjected to in the past year, the abject disassociation from the truth, the lies, and fabrications; yesterday’s Pocahontas comment pushed me over the edge. Siding with the KKK, the pussy grabbing moment, the Russians, the daily endless lies… Sean Spicer and the soon to be former press … Continue reading Code talkers and trump →

everybody has a backstory

In 1978 while tripping on acid and jacked way up on white crosses and tequila, singing Lynyrd Skynard’s “Freebird”, in possession, at the time, a respectably sized cache of unmarked firearms and various and assorted controlled substances – I found myself pissing in the parking lot of Turf’s Tavern, Middletown, trying to write my name … Continue reading everybody has a backstory →

We have reached the point where we have absolutely no bottom.

We have reached the point where we have absolutely no bottom. We debate if pedophiles and predators have a right to serve in the Senate. We have a criminal in the White House, his tax returns are so toxic they need to be housed in a special safe within the IRS. This has never happened … Continue reading We have reached the point where we have absolutely no bottom. →
