You Won’t Get Five Grand

-
So, there has always been a law against trying to buy votes in our Democracy. You knew that law had zero chance once you saw the poll numbers. The GOP has seen the numbers, and there has been talk of a massive blue tidal wave. Pedo Pig will claim they were cheated after the loss, but before votes are cast, he decided to try and cheat right out in the open. If the Republicans retain control of the House and Senate he will give every adult $5,000. It’s criminal to even try, but you think he’s afraid of breaking a law? What’s sad is that so many people out there are excited. They believe that the check is on the way. Don’t make plans, people… …it ain’t happening. $5 grand apiece amounts to $1.3 trillion dollars. There’s no way. And remember the Doge check you didn’t get? This is the third or fourth time that he has mentioned sending money for nothing to people. Now, I don’t know how to break this to everyone, but… …HE LIES! About everything. I laughed when I heard it because it’s an absol...

Twenty-Five Years

Got hit hard in the heart. Saw a photo of a Dad and his sons at Yankee Stadium on the night of 09/10/01. The game was rained out, but Dad made sure he got a great photo with his boys. The next day, Dad died in the Tower. I stared at that photo for a long while. His life ended mere hours after that photo was snapped. Thought of his boys… …now men. Grew up without their Dad. His boys were about the same age as my boys. Thousands of people lost their lives that day. As Americans we all lost something that day. A quarter of a century already. That time flew by for a lot of us… … but it went a lot slower and a lot more painful for thousands of others. “Don’t Return Hatred” was the letter I wrote that was published in the USA Today and at least 5 other major newspapers on 09/12/01. I say the same thing now. The Land of Hate and Rage isn’t what we’ve needed since that horrible day… …but somehow that’s where we ended up. Those poor families would’ve been a lot better off had we ended up in a L...

Perfect World - #19?

-
So, you want to write a book. I received the layout and cover art for the new book - “Perfect World” and I knew that I had one more task. I needed to read the freaking thing again! To make sure that there weren’t any errors. It’s likely the twentieth time I have read it, and is likely to happen when you read something so many times, you start thinking: “Does this suck?” I truly don’t believe that it does - I said what I wanted to say, and the plot tips along with interesting characters in place. But it’s a lot of work. I did my job, and sent it back. Now I wait, but I should have a couple of copies in hand fairly soon. And I thought, “Man, twenty books!” And then I thought: “Wait! This is only 19.” I tested myself. Could I remember them all? The first 5 were easy to recall: ‘Money Changes Everything’, Eye in the Sky’, Waldorf & Juli’, ‘Desperation’ and ‘In Real Life’. Then what? ‘Nobody’s Home and ‘Blind Spot’ before three non-fiction efforts, ‘Counting On A Miracle’, ‘House of Mir...

I’d Love Not to Talk About Him

-
The playbook of a narcissist is to keep their name in the news. Every day there is a fresh pile of crap to deal with. September 11, 2001 was a day that none of us who were here will ever forget. I remember the entire morning, and the feelings of dread. I recall the drive home, and keeping the kids away from the television. Every minute of that day is unforgettable. The huge, orange pile of lies doesn’t seem to have quite my sense of recall because yesterday, for the first time ever, he told the world that he was down at ground zero on that day… …just to see if he could help. (Such a great guy, right?) While he was down there a dramatic shift happened and two big, burly, handsome firemen had to lift him up and carry him through the rubble, saying, “Sir, it’s not safe.” I listened to him say it. Because I really wanted to grasp how someone could make up such a story. He is trying to insert himself as a hero and a victim in the center of the country’s most horrific day. It’s flat-out disg...

Splitsville

There’s a lot of chatter about Melanoma and Pedo Pig splitting up. Yep. Hard to believe because they’ve always looked so lovey-dovey, and they battled through that typical marriage problem where the man gets caught having an encounter with a porn star whilst the woman is home nursing the next family tragedy. They battled through that, and now? Pedo Pig was out on the golf course with his constant companion, Natalie, clapping when he miraculously found his ball in the middle of the fairway after he hit it in the woods. Hilarious. His golf cart is faster than everyone else’s and he races down the fairway and puts his ball wherever he wants to on his way to another club championship. Yet, I’m getting off the topic here. The Internets are alive with speculation about the fact that Melanoma is done and will no longer stand there with a sour look on her puss as he tries to hold her hand. There are so many out there who compare Melanoma to Jackie O. “She’s the classiest First Lady ever!” MAGA...

What’s Going to Happen?

-
At the 8th hole, as we waited for the annoying guys ahead of us leave the fairway (every golfer hates the group playing in front of them). I turned and asked: “What’s going to happen with the election?” Everyone had a response. “They’re trying to rig it.” “They lose and they’ll call it rigged.” “It’s already being rigged.” We’ve had free and fair elections for 250 years. There was no proof that 2020 wasn’t free and fair. It appears that 2024 was manipulated by Musk because it was a mathematical impossibility that it turned out as it did. Yet, not wanting to appear to be whiny assholes, the results were accepted. If the results are questioned again - without any proof - just a fat, orange dude bitching: Timeout: Did you see that he’s now a brunette??? Looks absolutely ridiculous. Anywhoha… …more than 60% of the country is truly hanging their hats on the fact that the Oompa Loompa agenda will be destroyed. “They refuse to accept the results we are going to have to do something,” one of t...

Catching A Baseball

-
I watched a clip of a game between the Rays and Padres. The game itself was crazy as the Rays were down to their final out in a 3-1 game with a runner on first.  The Padres have the best closer in the game, but he gave up a long fly to left that the outfielder made a fine running catch on… .,.except he hit the wall and dropped the ball on the other side - a 2-run homer to tie it. That was dramatic enough, but the camera stayed out there and the man who retrieved the ball on the other side of the wall went absolutely bat shit crazy. I can tell you, I have never been that excited about anything in my life. I watched children being born and I wasn’t as fired up as the guy out there who was celebrating in the Tampa night. He jumped and screamed and ran and then leapt onto a table out there. All the while raising his arms and absolutely screaming. I once got a ball at a Blue Jays-Yankees game. I must confess that it was a rush even though it was hit by Dave Berg, a journeyman infielder ...
