There's No Room for This Type of Blame-Game

Isn't this awful?

I am shocked and dismayed that someone might post such a photo on Facebook.

What is the purpose?

Does anyone not know that Bush did a lousy job? Are there very many people out there who are thoroughly enamored with Obama, or the black guy, as he is referred to here?

The problem being, of course, that the political system in this country is really, really broken. People vote as if they are picking a horse in a race, and if their guy wins they think that they can just sit back and make fun of the other guy.

I wasn't a Bush fan. I may have made that clear in this space before. I certainly am not a fan of Sarah Palin. But I can certainly tell you the one thing that I stopped doing after the last election...and that's fighting about it.

I'm done.

I'm not going to bash the next president unless he or she does something worthy of being bashed. I certainly won't do it based on whether they are a Republican or a Democrat because you know what?

Both groups suck.

They suck bad. They've taken the hard-working, God-fearing, loving people of this proud country and turned them all into a bunch of sniffling, crying, whining, 'you're guy did it, mine didn't,' finger-pointing idiots.

I'm not kidding here. I really don't like that photo. I would never pass it on or post it for a laugh.

The Bush is an idiot thing has been done to death. Blaming the black guy as a comment is insulting.

Not sure a lot of people are looking around, but it seems to me that we don't have time for this...the country seems to be in a bit of a mess.

When I'm in charge all of this nonsense will stop.

My Buddy, Dave

Way back in 1997, I started working with a steel erection company out of Syracuse. I was coming straight from a long stint with a steel erector here in Buffalo so I knew my stuff when it came to steel erection safety rules. On day one, I met with the safety director and he was just getting started as a safety guy, but man, he certainly cared about the guys he worked with. Dave was a good man from the start. He’d say things like: “You’re so full of beans.” Just a down to earth, hardworking guy who became a fast friend. We drove all around New York State setting up jobs. I always let Dave drive so that I could rest. One fine day, way up North of Syracuse, we passed a state trooper.  I glanced at the speedometer. “You’re screwed,” I said, and seconds later, the lights came on. Dave was beside himself.  The cop stopped by the window, grabbed the license and registration and headed back to his vehicle. “Here’s the thing,” I said. “You’re pissed, but you’re such a good guy that I be...

Mom & Ollie

 Ollie Stadium is a mess. The heavy rains rendered the backyard a mud pit and even though we threw in the side yard, the Big O was looking for more, and we were both covered in mud. I had to take some steam out of him somehow so I suggested we go visit Grandma. Ollie hates the car, but he laid quietly as we made the trip. We even brought the football because there is plenty of room to play at Grandma’s. Mom opened the door and started laughing. I thought about the love she had for every single dog we ever had. Oliver was quick to give my Mom a kiss, and then he stood beside her. The love between Mom and Dogs is a mutual bond. Through the years, Mom would make breakfast for the dogs.  Fried eggs, toast, bacon… She would wrap Christmas gifts for them. “To Jeter, Love Santa,” she would write on the cards. They played with the big chicken that made a lot of noise. Mom tossed the football and Ollie brought it back to her. As the visit drew to a close I headed for the door.  “C...

My sister’s book is out there! Go get it!! It makes me so proud to see the book on Amazon, knowing that it’s very, very great! It’s been a long, long time since we were out in California, brainstorming my stories long before they were published. Carrie Lynn was writing, writing and writing some more through the years and I kept telling her… …”Go for it!” Well, she did!  To amazing results. Of course I was able to read the book as it was being put together, but I ordered a copy from Amazon yesterday and can’t wait to read it again. The shoe is on the other foot now as I have been sitting on a lot of my writing lately. I plan on getting it out there before the end of 2024, but for now: Carrie takes center stage! And it’s so great… …go get a copy!
