How we do it downtown.

I have visited Staten Island (great free Ferry ride) and most of my interactions have been very pleasant, the place has a fascinating History, and some really excellent Restaurants. But there’s not a Hotel or a Motel on the Island that hasn’t seen a murder and Fresh Kills has it’s own special Chernobyl section where …

Examples Of Constructive Behavior

Not. I tell you, Christians are a cult that worships death (more than Kali who is also a Fertility Goddess who battled at the side of Brahma and Vishnu though she is commonly associated with Shiva, Destroyer of Worlds). Pay attention. It’s all there will be Pie in the Sky, bye and bye, bye and …

Not a Rant

They’re running the Turn Left Bumper Car Flaming Chunks of Twisted Metal 600 today and good luck with that. No Infield, no spectators, social distancing in the Pit (they already wear masks and gloves for safety).

An Update from Sores and Boils Alley

How are things in the Land of Steady Habits (that’s right, we’ve been swindling you since Colonial times)? Thank you for asking. Seriously.

Well, first of all Corporations are not people and the Supremes never ruled that they were. The concept comes from the pen of a Clerk after the ruling who, in the most charitable interpretations of motive, was a dumb ass who made a huge mistake.

It was the best of times. It was the worst of times.

Eh, scratch that. Things are pretty much bad all over unless you’re a Billionaire slopping at the $434 Billion wealth trough they’ve added to their net worth. I can barely begin to tell you how bad the Economy is and how long it’s going to take to recover and it really irks me that Nancy …

Thuggee Theory And Practice

Some suggest that Thugs were an invention of the British Raj to justify their Imperialism. Other sources posit a strictly criminal motivation (think Mafia families). While they had their own cant and rituals they were probably not Kali (who was much more complex than a simple “Death Goddess” like Hela) worshippers despite Temple of Doom …
