I was recently dismayed to learn that someone actually believed in the 911 conspiracy theories

I was at my In-law’s house recently, and I was floored by a subject that was brought up.  Another relative was also visiting, and as I stepped outside for a moment, I saw him smoking in front of the house.  He spoke to me, and I decided to take a moment, and make a little [...]

New Ideas from the Wordsmiths (liars) in the Global Warming Community

Once again, I find myself drawn like a moth to the Global Warming alarmists’ flame.
I have always been a firm believer that words mean things.  I try to use precise language to convey my thoughts whenever I am writing or speaking (though I do not always succeed).  It frustrates me whenever I say something and [...]

No Nonsense on Planes

It seems that we read almost weekly about people making asses of themselves on planes.  This week in the latest example of an unwelcome trend, two drunk women tried to open an emergency exit on a charter plane in order to ‘get some fresh air.’
I want to say now that I am personally serving notice [...]

More on the Mole Season 5

I actually hope that I am wrong about this,but I’m very afraid that I am not.  Nicole’s whole “I’m going to self-execute” drama was one of the worst acting performances I’ve ever seen.  You could see better on Telemundo.
I just do not know what the producers are thinking.  They give her this very thin plot twist that [...]

Good Intentions are not Good Enough

I had a person comment on my post regarding a terrible decision that was made to try to encourage children not to drink and drive at El Camino High School in Southern California.  In this program, students were led to believe that their friends had been killed in car accidents, and were show pictures of [...]

Ding, Dong: Bryant Gumbel is Finally Off of the NFL Network

Usually, I find myself griping about one thing or another on my blog.  It is often sadly true that bad news outnumbers or outweighs good news.  Today, however, I read a great story.  In fact, I cannot think of a thing that would make me much happier than the news I read today.  World peace [...]

Confessions of a Yankee hater

The first step in a Twelve Step Program is to admit that you have a problem.  It has been a long hard road filled with a lot of denial, but I can finally admit to myself today, that I am a Yankee hater.  Just saying it feels as if a load has been lifted off [...]

“F” Favre

So, when did Brett Favre actually become a woman?
Watching him decide to retire (or not) over the past few season has been like watching my wife decide where to put a picture on the wall, except that she can come to a decision and stick with it better that he does.
I’ve never seen a male with [...]

Top 100 Creepy People #10-1

Creepy Person #10- Steve Buscemi-
He is one of the great character actors of our time, and I really like it when he is in a movie, but those eyes, those eyes!  If you want somebody to know who you are talking about just say, “you know, Crazy Eyes.”  They’ll know who you mean.  I feel [...]

Top 100 Creepy People #11-20

 
Creepy Person #20- Roman Polanski-
Following in the footsteps of the Academy, I would like to present him with this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award…for Creepiness.  Let’s see.  This guy cannot return to the U.S. because he is under indictment for drugging and raping a 13 year old girl, but as Hollywood has proven, Americans seem to [...]
