We will sell our bracelets by the road sides, you will play golf, and enjoy hot hors d’oeuvres. My people will have pain …

The Daily Late Nightly Show (Months of Darkness)
I spilled spot remover on my dog. Now he’s gone. This is not exactly the most wonderful time of the year for me. I think I remember when it made me happy, huge piles of leaves to flounce in and the smell of yard fires to get rid of them permeating the air, followed by …

Why Russia and China are winning.
Let’s assume for the sake of argument that a hegemonic United States global empire is a good thing. Now it’s not really for many reasons, lots of them economic but some military. Anyone else notice we are 1 for whatever since Vietnam? Yup, unless you count Grenada and Panama (two mighty and scary foes) only …
