Greetings! Speaking on behalf of your rulers, thank you for at least trying. But try as you might, you just can’t win. As you can imagine, the last thing we want are any more violent uprisings involving major property damage. That will not be tolerated, as civil unrest can have a negative effect on global […]
I fully support the Black Lives Matter protests springing up all over the country, but as someone who has seen this sort of indignant outrage flare up time and time again, only to sit back in disgust as public interest peters out while the news cycle moves on to some other manufactured crisis, all I […]
In the late 50s and early 60s, popular music was far more stratified than it is now. The categories were rigid and there was very little crossover between genres. Indeed, as the new decade dawned (1960), each camp was growing more firmly entrenched. Before the Cultural Revolution of the mid ‘60s, Jazz, R&B, Blues, pop, […]
Here is something that really needs to be said…something no one in America is willing to say: Most cops are bad apples. It’s not the other way around. Year after year we get that same, lame excuse, “Well of course there are always a few bad apples, but yadda yadda ya…” Bullshit. They say ‘a […]

Sigh… I hate to break the news to everyone, but smug little Elon isn’t as brilliant as he claims to be. Why the global elite decided to […]
A story on the front page of CNN.com caught my eye today: SR-71 Blackbird: The Cold War spy plane that’s still the world’s fastest airplane The byline reads: During the Cold War, this plane could fly higher and faster than any other — and 55 years after its first flight, it still does. The article […]
In a recent interview on CNN, fake Vice President Mike Pence said that he didn’t think “president” Donald tRump “has ever belittled the threat of the coronavirus.” Oh, really? Funny thing, that. Here a just a few choice examples: On February 27, 2020, “president” tRump told the nation that the coronavirus would simply go away, […]
Murder Most Foul is his Dylan’s best work in years. The song – more of a recitation with minimalist music – plays like an obituary to the last 70 years; a lament for the dream of America, “the shining city upon the hill.” Maybe even an elegy for the entire 20th century; for popular culture […]
A former wrestling captain at THE Ohio State University recently told the Ohio House Civil Justice Committee that Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan asked him to help cover up a major sex abuse scandal that occurred while he was an Ohio State wrestling coach. Jordan has been accused of helping to cover up systemic abuse during […]
