House Or Hole? Does It Matter?

You know, I actually saw the Commodores in concert long after they were even a D-List ticket (New Year’s is not the same without Kathy Griffin and Andersen, your boyfriend is a dope). Actually, although I’ve been given free reign to demonstrate my 20 year old vocabulary (I swear, I took an Internet survey!) I …

Every Day Is Exactly The Same.

Have I mentioned I’m a Buddhist recently? Not as a religion, more as a philosophy. I believe I can see the future because I repeat the same routine. I think I used to have a purpose, then again, that might have been a dream. I think I used to have a voice. Now I never …

Birmingham Jail

Fifty years ago Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was murdered at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee. Room 306. Now we have an avowed racist in the White House. Some people think between his death and that of Robert Kennedy it was the end of hope. I agree. The King family and others believe the …

Throwball Divisional Playoffs 2018: Aints at Eekings

I probably shouldn’t say this as I am 0 – 3 in picks this weekend, but I have a bit of residual sympathy for the Aints based on Katrina. On the other hand it would be mildly interesting to see the Eeks at home against the Patsies in the LII Bowl. What decides it in …

Throwball Divisional Playoffs 2018: Jaguars at Steelers

I kind of like the Steelers because sometimes they can be a team of destiny and might have a better chance of beating the Patsies for the American Throwball Conference Championship and I hate the Patsies. Besides, Pittsburg is a s___hole and I suppose they deserve something. The Jaguars are just an average team and …

Throwball Divisional Playoffs 2018: Titans at Patsies

I have fond enough memories of Tennessee. My Club (capo di tutti) met there frequently and the first time I visited it was Memphis. I highly recommend Mud Island, a concrete representation of the Mississippi River from Minneapolis to the Gulf you can easily stride across like some Gulliver in the Northern sections terminating in …

Cable News Could Use More Like Joy Reid

MSNBC host Joy Reid does not suffer rude fools lightly. She asks direct questions of her guests and has the facts at her fingertips. Her interview this morning with Donald Trump apologist Pastor Mark Burns was the perfect example for other host of cable news on how to handle guests who won’t answer questions, spew …
