Christmas in March: A part of Home Alone movie set

On By admin

Because this is my close-to-Christmas column, each year I endeavor to squeeze out something Christmas-related. Someone online told of a most memorable Christmas. I couldn’t think of any, except for those where girl friends dumped me. Other than those holiday dumpster specials, I’d have to say my most memorable Christmas...

On masks, driving a beater without a steering wheel

On By admin

This week, I had a whole lotta stuff I planned to write about Donald Trump, but decided it was a waste. Donny’s gone off the deep end with hair-dye-dripping nutty buddy, Rudy Giuliani, and others hanging on, claiming that the FBI, CIA, CDC, Poncho Villa, Cher, and Emperor Ming the...

Thanksgiving Day: Past and present; on a treadmill

On By admin

How different this Thanksgiving Day holiday is than those we’ve celebrated in the past. We’re warned by the CDC (Center for Disease Control and Prevention) not to travel and celebrate with those in our immediate household, the same ones we’ve been cooped up with for months. Yay. At least it...

Election consequences, recollections, thoughts

On By admin

I had a different first line for this piece about the never-ending vote count, but just as I punched it out I learned that Joe Biden had won the election. Whew! Even our world allies celebrated with fireworks, music (I think I heard the Munchkins singing, “Ding Dong, the Witch...

Gross book best to extricate self from Pandemic Funk

On By admin

According to news sources and other unreliable sources of information, a majority of we human-types are suffering from pandemic fatigue. Personally, I’m suffering more from election fatigue, probably because I sent in my mail-in ballot weeks ago. Whatever political doggy-doo that pops up on the television screen or in my...

Memories: Renee, engine block, missing battery, wait

On By admin

After reading the travel stories from Jo Fredell Higgins and Rick McKay in The Voice, I was inspired to add my own travel story. No, not the one about my trip to 7-Eleven, but my circus travel disaster adventure in New Orleans, The Big Easy, where residents are hit with...

Hope remains Peeps will survive, at least until Easter

On By admin

No one will argue that 2020 hasn’t been a tough year, with the COVID-19 death toll mounting daily, police brutality toward black people causing massive demonstrations, and a president who seems oblivious to it all, high unemployment, worsening environmental disasters, the loss of a Supreme Court judge weeks before a...

Personal history of car purchases, and buyer attitudes

On By admin

I recently read that used car sales have spiked during the current COVID-19 crisis, probably because of uncertain incomes and used cars have already spun off the thousands of dollars of depreciation. A nice used, excuse me, previously-owned vehicle could be a great deal, except if you get one of...

Ministers of Pain: Dental changes to political winds

On By admin

As millions lose their $600 unemployment checks and coronavirus (COVID-19) deaths realize new highs, I’ve been thinking about my teeth. Not because I have any major dental problems other than my bicuspids occasionally bursting into flame for no apparent reason, but because I’ve been wondering what would happen to my...

In defense of wearing masks and sunken concrete boat

On By admin

It’s hard for me to crack the writer’s block this week, because I’m constantly bombarded with the latest Trump idiocy and inanities. Let’s see if I can change the subject slightly. I can focus on face masks. It’s now confirmed by doctors and other science professionals, that wearing a face...

Unbelievable time in Tulsa believable, considering source

On By admin

Poor Donny. The stadium wasn’t quite full, not even one-third full, actually, for his self-congratulatory weekend rally in Tulsa. Because The Donald doesn’t believe in reading, he had to go by visuals and even he could see that 6,200 in attendance is a few less than the million red hats...

On a Bright future and adding pea gravel to the diet

On By admin

Here we are again in another week of the virus hoax created by the Democratic Party to make our all-knowing, all-powerful, king of all who lives and breathes, the White House inhabitant, look bad. By any estimation, dems are doing a wonderful job. He couldn’t look much worse. As I...

Covering it all: Nonsense to non-nonsensical subjects

How’s everyone doing with this COVID-19 lockdown? My family is fine. Being cooped up together with no escape in sight for the near future hasn’t been a problem. I’ve neither killed a family member, nor has a family member killed me. But time will tell. I noticed the Easter Bunny...

On Spring in the air and combatting the COVID-19

I don’t know about you, but with the recent spate of mild weather I can feel Spring in the air. Spring. The season when a young man’s fancy turns to thoughts of love and an old man’s fancy turns to thoughts of pushing up daises. Over in Al Demeter Park,...

Driving experiences: Over a cliff to passing driver’s test

Have all you readers managed to avoid the corona virus so far? Have you stocked up on emergency items such as extra edibles, medications, cinder blocks, bowling shoes, toilet paper, pogo sticks, and flame-throwers? You’ve most likely wasted your time and money because, according to our current orange-faced Randall Flagg...

Thoughts straight from the brain about Valentines past

I hope everyone had a nice Valentine’s Day and received many heartfelt good wishes, tokens of love, and similar garbage. Continuing my tradition of being a day late and a dollar short, I’d like to share some words about that special day. Some time back, I wondered why a heart...

Warning: These prescription side effects may cause…death

On By admin

I recently picked up my latest prescription medication. It was ensconced in a tiny bottle with about three-and-a-half pounds of paper attached with all types of warnings about side effects. Some years back right here in The Voice, I noted that 30-second prescription medication ads on television, or scrolling across...

Confession: Nearly killed an eighth grade nun, accidentally

I have a confession to make: I nearly killed my eighth grade nun. To many of you readers who grew up attending a Catholic school, this probably doesn’t sound so bad because, just like me, you’d assumed they were trying to kill us. But this was not a preemptive strike...

Various hostilities and writers writing about war

America seems to have an abundance of angry individuals these days. I’m not one of them, except when my cable cuts out during The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. But, I’ve noticed infusions of anger when it comes to politics or driving. It would be nice if it stayed in...

Cats of all sizes offer interesting information; elephants, too

Because I was writing about pets (last time, I mean) I thought I’d continue. Humankind is finally learning about animal intelligence and behavior. In the past, animals were generally thought of as something dumb, disposable, targets for hunters, creatures in the way of progress. How could we build large environment-polluting,...
