What? No Sarah?

Man, am I disappointed.

Sarah Palin is not going to run for president.

Not that I would have thought about voting for her, mind you, but because I will certainly miss the comedy associated with such a run.

I didn't know enough about Paul Revere until she spoke.

I didn't know you could see Russia from her bedroom window until she told me that was how she shaped policy.

All the golly gees and youbetcha's that I will miss.

She was ready to roll too until all the dirt came out about her. Did you know she slept with a basketball player behind Trip or Trigger or Tupac's back?

I can never remember what her snowmobiling husband's name is.

And Bristol...oh how I will miss Bristol and her boyfriend, Trip or Trigger or Comet and Blitzen.

She was one of us. She dropped out of school eleven times. She once ran her school board. She thought the country that borders us to the south was Texico.

"Drill baby drill."

"Why do you ask me such trip-up questions such as what I like to read? That's just mean."

McCain couldn't stand the sight of her. Biden actually laughed at her during the vice-presidential debates. She actually has the gall to stand up and say how things should be run nationwide when she quit as governor because they were picking on her because of all the clothes she bought as she was running around the world messing up speech after horrendous speech.

I will certainly miss her.

Then again, maybe I would have voted for her.

She's kinda' hot.

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...

Eyes on the Horizon

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!
