Standing Up And Walking Out

It’s been my great misfortune to watch the parade of liars and traitors at Trump’s “Gun Control” summit of which the basic message has been- “Gun Free Zones are bad and dangerous. Everyone should have a gun at all times. The only people who shoot others are by definition crazy so no person we can …

Say Goodbye To Theresa May

On the 9th I pointed out the inherent contradictions of the Tory position on Brexit and predicted that it would soon end with a breach of either Paragraph 50 of the coalition accord between the Conservatives and the Democratic Unionist Party or the Good Friday agreement between the United Kingdom and Ireland. Well, I didn’t …

How Long Are We Going To Last?

The White House has an incredible list of incompetent advisors, cabinet members and agency heads. Most are either close family members, family friends or people who worked closely in the Trump organization. Some others are business associates, as well as, supporters and donors from the campaign.

Partnerships

If you can remember waaay back to Valentine’s Day you’ll recall I mumbled something about meeting with our corporate sponsors. Well, what that meant is that we had “partnerships” with them.

The Bone Spurs Hero

As I think I’ve made clear, I have never served in any branch of the armed services or in domestic law enforcement. I would have been a poor fit since I have a very low tolerance for idiocy and petty fascism. I have been known, because I’m tremendously irresponsible, to take Richard’s ancient Red Ryder …

How Rich Is Rich?

It’s long been known that U.S. Citizens tend to grossly underestimate their wealth. Almost everyone considers themselves “Middle Class” or at most “Upper Middle Class”. My sister has a job as a manager of a team that has 10 – 20 members and performs other management tasks like developing procedures and training programs that are …
