Dopey Bastards

So, they put out plans about a strike on an APP that included a journalist.

There were boxes of classified documents stored in a bathroom.

They’re all using their personal cell phones and still they chant:

“Lock her up!” every chance they get.

The hypocrisy is astounding.

Greenland printed hats that spell out MAGA with a couple of changes:

“Make America Go Away.”

Canada is not amused by the 51st state garbage.

Yet the real trouble is the tariffs.

25% tariffs on cars that aren’t made in America.

Tariffs on lumber and steel.

It all sounds like great fun, and there are wild claims about swimming in a pool of money…

…that money is coming from only one place:

The American consumer.

It’s a flawed plan and is conceived by a bunch of truly dopey bastards.

I spoke with an owner of a company who uses immigrant labor to run their company

“I’m getting worried that we aren’t going to have any employees.”

Another man told me that he applied for social security because he’s afraid it won’t be there when he’s ready.

“If I get mine I don’t care what happens to anyone else,” he reasoned.

That’s fun.

When asked about the security breach the huge, orange dude said:

“It’s a witch hunt.”

🥱 🥱 🥱 

Dude needs some new material.

There’s Still Greatness

The other night I got home from work and Kathy and Sam were engaged in a game of backgammon. Sam had never played and wanted to learn. He got some late doubles and won his debut game. (I helped a little). And I thought of my buddy, Gag. We were roommates at Gannon back in 1983. We played at least 25 games of backgammon a night. By the end of the year he wound up beating me by just a couple of games out of a few thousand. That’s 60-year-old Gag in the photo - running the Disney marathon with his son, MJ - they do it every year. To raise money for Duchenne MD research. “He’s running again?” Kathy asked me as we talked about the donation.  “Of course.” “Italian men, man,” Kathy said. “You’re a stubborn, loyal lot.” “I ain’t running no marathons,” I said. “Gag is a maniac.” I enjoy following the posts as the run progresses - on Saturday morning I was fighting a cold or some such crap… …and they were running in the rain in Florida. There is a lot of negative energy in the news we see br...

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!

Eyes on the Horizon Review

It’s always strange for me when someone I know tells me that they read my books and it’s weird for them because they think of me as they’re reading the story. I didn’t quite grasp what they meant, and hoped that they’d get caught up in the story and not me. I kind of get what they’re saying now because I just finished reading my sister Carrie Lynn’s excellent first book, ‘Eyes on the Horizon’. Now, I had read the story a long while ago, but a whole lot of work went into the end product. As a writer, I always try and guess along with the author because I can see the plot lines, and I’m often critical of plot lines that come out of nowhere as the author tries to unpaint the corner he’s stuck in. There was none of that in ‘Eyes on the Horizon’! I didn’t have any moments of, ‘Come on, now, that doesn’t work!’ I caught all the subtle lines that we shared in conversations and I was proud that Carrie defined her characters clearly and used them to propel the story forward. I’ve also coached h...
