A Letter To UTW, Local 63

TO: United Steal Workers, Local 101
RE: Mugging of 101-year old woman
Dear USW,
I see from the news that your organization and many of your affiliate organizations (Society of Car Jackers, Drug Pushers of America) are working hard to maintain our country’s status as the leading producer of theft and violent crime. Hardly a day goes [...]

The View From Here

Friday, January 5th, 2007

I’m a bit of TV junkie. I have been since I was a kid. I was not a coach potato kid, though. I’m not as a grown man, either. I always preferred (and still prefer) to be outdoors. But when I am inside, the TV is generally on. Even [...]

Eliminating Brown Eye

One of the side effects of operating a website and a blog is that readers/visitors sometimes send me pictures of themselves (or pictures of parts of themselves).
Generally, when there’s a face visible, it’s a “just so you know who’s writing you” sort of thing. When it’s just parts, I think they tend to have [...]

You know the saying, “Opinions are like assholes. Everybody has one?” Now replace “opinions” with “iPods” and it’s still pretty much a true statement. Everybody has one. Except me. Oh, I have opinions. Isn’t that what blogging is all about? (Seems like everybody has one of those now, too.) But, I don’t have an iPod. [...]

Baby Daddy

They say that if you want to get along with people never discuss religion or politics. (Of course, it’s getting so that in this country, despite what the Constitution says, the two are getting pretty mixed up and muddy). So, I’m a little uneasy about bringing up the subject of abortion. I’m probably going to [...]
