Election Day Flashback

Dear Barack, Thanks, but no thanks. You’ve done enough. In fact, you’ve done too much. We’re very okay now. In a very good spot. No reason to check back in. Folks have jobs. Taxes hurt less. The PC stuff doesn’t sting anymore … and the race card has finally gone lame. Businesses can breathe. Trade … Continue reading Election Day Flashback

Water Your Children

  Enter a caption   When I was a kid, trouble had no trouble finding me. “Trouble” might be too strong. Call it mischief. Or devilry. I never thought I was doing anything wrong-wrong. I was just doin’ different stuff.  So  … so I got into different trouble. You gettin’ this? “There is always one … Continue reading Water Your Children

Lady Mirage

Guest post: The lady strolled in sepia, through a Technicolor crowd A woman from another time, another place allowed A gentleman to tip his hat, with hope to catch her eye And earn the slightest hint of smile, as she goes walking by He had no hat to tip, as the pavement lay beyond her … Continue reading Lady Mirage

Parts Unknown

Guest Post: Part of me is gone, you know I’ve left for parts unknown, and though You hear my voice, you rub my hands I’m living in forgotten lands, where Voices only I will know, are laughing loud And whispering low, you look concerned You shouldn’t be, exchanging glances I don’t see With unseen faces … Continue reading Parts Unknown

Don’t Ever Guilt Me

I’m sorry, not. I’ll never … not ever … apologize for who I am ... for what I have ... or for how my life’s unfolded. I’m white, a middle-class success … and I worked for what I have. And I’m a man. Don’t bother trying to guilt me … about anything … ’cause I’m not some … Continue reading Don’t Ever Guilt Me

September 12, 2001

Every now and then life slips into technicolor … because a particular moment is so glorious … or so frightfully tragic. We've  all seen things we wish we could unsee … and we tuck that hard stuff deep down inside. And it stays safe there … until something wakes it up. In this morning’s twilight-sleep, … Continue reading September 12, 2001

Kidhood

Kidhood should happen when you turn nine … maybe ten. And last until the day you turn fourteen. Then it’s over. Done. That’s when everything you’ve learned starts to count. For real. Tommy Scott taught me to follow directions … by diagramming touch-football plays on my bony chest … with his stiff index-finger. The McCann … Continue reading Kidhood

The ‘Gray Lady’ Is Cutting Herself

The Gray Lady is cutting herself. Meet The New York Times’  newest editorial hire ... Sarah Jeong ... who, it seems, has a real problem with white men. And she has a racist problem of her own. “Dumbass f*cking white people marking up the internet with their opinions like dogs pissing on fire hydrants ...” And this ... … Continue reading The ‘Gray Lady’ Is Cutting Herself

Out, Damned Spot!

“Something wicked this way comes” … and it’s not like we weren’t warned.  On January 20, 1993, Bill Clinton was sworn in as the 42nd president of the United States … and the name “Hillary” crashed in popularity. An omen for sure. So America’s Lady Macbeth felt complete, but not complete enough. She was now … Continue reading Out, Damned Spot!

The Untruthables

It’s time to react to this liberal syndicate and their gangland tactics that have weaponized federal agencies.   They’ve contorted the Constitution, broken laws, endangered national security … and polluted this nation with destructive ideologies that could forever change the character of America. They are more like a crime family than a government. This political mafioso seeks to … Continue reading The Untruthables
