News and information behind critically-slanted items

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...

Time change grumble can lead to political posture, rant

On By admin

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...

On…fooling some of the people all of the time…

On By admin

Well, well, well. It appears that the clump of talking heads on Fox who spread The Big Lie knew it was a big lie and broadcast it as reality, anyway. I, along with millions of other reasonably-intelligent Americans, never believed that verbal vomit being spewed forth on Fox, but millions...

Many memories made, recalled, of Chicago visits

On By admin

I recently watched Geoffrey Baer’s shows on PBS, in which he tours various Chicago neighborhoods on the L, driving, walking, snowboarding, all without getting shot with bullets, or spray-painted with graffiti, and it brought back memories of my experiences. Some time back, I wrote of my early memories of attending...

True: Big toy manufacturer Mattel made M16 rifles

On By admin

A couple of editions back, I commented on some new products available for adults and children as potentials for Christmas gift-giving. Sales figures are coming in from Amazon and other retail outlets as to how these items were accepted in the marketplace by us lowly consumers. Plain, old, every-day, electric...

New Year’s resolutions never worked, not even for Babylonians

On By admin

Here we are again in a brand new year. And as Tennessee Ernie Ford sang way back in the 1950s, “Another day older and deeper in debt.” Overspending on Black Friday wasn’t even a thing then. So anyway, what will 2023 bring? Who knows? Hopefully, the last of Trump, brought...

Because this week is the last time you’ll be reading my words here before the holidays (you are reading them, aren’t you?

Growing up: True personal experience in the 1960s

On By admin

Even though conventional wisdom states, “If you remember the ‘60s, you weren’t really there,” I’m guessing a good number of you Baby Boomers reading this column do remember most of that coming-of-age decade anyway. I entered 1960 as fat, nerdy, eighth-grade kid and left 1969 as lean, mean, olive drab,...

Thoughts on elections, presidency, list of certain failures

On By admin

I’m so thankful this Thanksgiving that those nutty midterm elections have passed and turned out fairly well. Now I don’t have to relocate to Canada and get stressed out building an igloo or eating whale blubber. Political commercials, be gone! Surely I jest. They’re all ready popping up. Now that...

Warming up for Halloween through Velma, purple M&Ms

Scooby-doo’s Velma is gay? Say it ain’t so, Joe. This could signal the end of civilization as we know it. What’s next, purple M&Ms? We’re rapidly approaching Armageddon. I’m thankful I didn’t hear this news over the car radio while I was driving on the expressway because I surely would...

Benefits, or not, seen in reading prescription side effects

Happening: From the Queen to MAGA to Apophis

There seems to be a lot happening recently. Very little of it in my head, unfortunately, but out in the real world, the one that a sizable portion of we human-types inhabit. I was sorry to hear of the passing of Queen Elizabeth II, although I did witness her passing...

By now, unless you’ve been living in a cave or Washington, D.C., you’ve come to realize that climate change is real. It happens every few thousand years due to the Earth’s wobble on its axis. That’s just life in the big city and there’s nothing Earthlings can do about it....

Trump supporters offer a variety of wacko theories
