Dear reader, once again I am officially announcing my intent to run for the office of president of the United States in 2024. I have thought long and hard (about five minutes) concerning this decision, but I believe it is my civic duty to seek this office. I am making
Well? Have you made them? Have you broken them, yet? It’s already been three days. What are you waiting for? In case you’re more confused than I am, which hardly seems possible, I’m referring to New Year’s resolutions. It’s out with the old, in with the new, although it has
‘Tis the season to be jolly, make merry, and sing, “Deck the Halls with Poison Ivy” and the like. But on a serious note, we need to remember why we celebrate Christmas in the first place. “Silent Night,” “Joy to the World,” and “Away in a Manger” seem to be
As television minister Joel Osteen says, “I like to start off with something funny.” While watching the unfolding Trump family debacle, if you think you may have failed to do your best as a parent, consider this: Do you have individual courtroom sketches of yourself and of your children? If
I have a very wide grin on my face (where else would I have it?) as I put this to paper. Congressional GOP nut job Gym Jordan is out as potential Speaker of the House. Donald Trump cronies are flipping on him like pancakes on an overheated IHOP griddle. Wait
A couple of weeks ago, I tossed out my daily ration of birdseed on the patio for our feathered friends. Approximately two dozen sparrows soon swooped down and in their midst was a brightly- colored green and yellow version. It was too early for Halloween, so could it be a
Did you detect the odor of diesel exhaust in the air? Did you hear the crescendo of a diesel engine as a bus drove off into the sunset? Did you see what was left behind flattened in the street, i.e., a person in an expensive suit, lying face down, with
Oh, Donny Boy, the courts, the courts, are calling. Prosecutor Fani Willis took the step that those before her in New York and D.C. had avoided: Taking a mug shot of Trump. Did you happen to notice that the protestors Trump asked to show up and raise hell and make
Hi-ho, hi-ho, it’s off to jail you go. Trump. What can I say that already hasn’t been said more eloquently by others, such as Robert De Niro, “(bleep) Trump,” or one of Donny Boy’s former Wharton professors who stated, “Donald Trump was the dumbest (bleep) student I ever had.” Ever
This week I feel I have to rear up here and say a few words in defense of fellow The Voice columnist, Chas Coddington. Frequent The Voice contributor Bela “Wild Bill” Suhayda recently stuck his head up out of the MAGA mire to lambast Chas for his comments on disgraced
Recently, North Korea’s Little Rocket Man, Kim Jong Un has been showing off by blowing up stuff, mainly Japanese ocean water. His actions brought back memories of his granddaddy, Kim Il Sung, the Grand Poobah of the North, who ruled when I was enjoying my military vacation in the Korean
Did you ever think about pounding a No. 2 pencil up your nose? Neither did I. Now that that’s out of the way, let’s get to something more beneficial to our well-being, such as meeting new people. Many of us have been sheltering just like cloistered monks because of the
So much has been written and broadcast about fat, orange-faced, Donny Dum-Dum’s indictment and arraignment, I planned to avoid adding to it. But I just couldn’t help myself. Even as Trump’s attorneys are dropping like flies, caught in a mist of a Raid® fog, leaving No. 45 scrambling to find
Here’s some interesting things I didn’t know that I didn’t know (for thoughts on anything, I always fall back on my senior year homeroom’s motto, “Ignorance is Bliss.” You can get an idea of how far up on the food chain we were.). Let’s assume for a moment that my
Are you feeling overwhelmed by the fast pace and complexity of modern life (you cadavers reading this don’t count)? Actually, that question was the opening of an article I read about simplifying your life, thereby changing it from the day-to-day proverbial hamster wheel-type existence to a slower-paced one that’s a
I have a very good feeling that the twice impeached, habitually-lying, bigoted, cowardly, accused, orange-faced rapist and former president, our own Donny Boy Trump, is about to get what he deserves for his actions toward women over the many years. Even his lawyer seems to have thrown in the towel
Another Earth Day has passed. I’m sure all of you The Voice readers had the sense to stow away your nuclear weapons, or, follow Germany’s example and disable them. The German’s shut down their last nuclear plant. I guess that means the end to nuclear powered VW Beetle and glow-in-the-dark
I’m OK, You’re Not At any time, there are many individuals down in the dumps due to feelings of inadequacy and uselessness. You may be one of them. If you are, I’m here to offer some positive affirmation: You are correct. Here is some positive reinforcement. To further aid you
I see MAGA loser why-is-everybody-always-pickin’-on-me Trump is threatening Armageddon will befall us if he’s arrested and charged with anything. Maybe something will fall, but only on him and that’s the mighty ball peen hammer of justice. So far not many of his followers have been stirred up enough to take
Daylight savings time has again graced us with its presence, giving us a reason to grumble about losing an hour of sleep at 2 a.m. (unlike me, who’s still awake staring at my computer screen, wondering what I’m going to write for The Voice this week) and being thrown off
