Matt Bai Is (a terrible human being)*
* A Racist! I’m not sure that I want that turning up at the top of the Google but it’s true enough and you are now free to justifiably accuse me of cowardice in this instance. He grew up an Alex Keaton Reaganaut in about the whitest town in Connecticut (which is saying quite a …

Waffle House Rules!
You know, Joe Micklewhite (or Junior as we like to call him) is in every movie ever. No wonder he got on the Queen’s List. Regular readers recognize I’m a sucker for scattered smothered, chunked, covered, capped, and Country (please, no peppered- I’m terribly allergic) with an egg over on top. Moscow Mitch is not …

A Thin Hand
In addition to a lot of unbelievable things about me I know many games and am fairly decent at most of them (Golf? I don’t take that seriously at all.). Among them is Canasta, a card game so complicated it requires at least 2 decks. First of all, now you know what the second deck …

Jackson at Nuremberg thought Aggressive Warfare the root of all War Crimes, particularly those of the Nazis. …

Time to throw some Paper Towels
I find myself needing to remind people all the time- PUERTO RICANS ARE UNITED STATES CITIZENS AND THEY ARE EUROPEAN WHITE! They happen to speak Spanish is all, it’s no different than speaking French or Italian. Puerto Rico is 3,515 square miles. Connecticut is 4,849 square miles. Puerto Rico has 3,193,694 residents. Connecticut has 3,572,665 …

An Unfortunate Confluence
You can’t deny that the 2 biggest news stories of recent weeks are the Ukraine Bribery/Extortion Scandal and the United States’ Assassination of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani. Now I certainly don’t mean to imply that there is any but coincidental connection between them (well, except for Unindicted Co-conspirator Bottomless Pinocchio) but I found this both …
