The wanking of the wankitrons
Color me kinda-sorta amused by the outbreak of right-wing joy at Chicago’s defeat (along with Tokyo and Madrid) for the hosting of the 2016 Olympic Games. First, there’s the odd spectacle that these people are actively rooting against the United … Continue reading

Colin Cowherd is a giant doodie-head.
I was listening to WGR, the local sports-radio talk station, on my way to work this morning, because WNED was playing some baroque thing that I didn’t want to listen to. (Probably Vivaldi.) Sometimes WGR likes to promote their programming … Continue reading
Drivers – I could do without ’em.
Several times in recent weeks I’ve posted over on my Facebook profile about goofy habits people seem to have nowadays when driving, things that people didn’t always do and actually wouldn’t do at all if they would just remember the … Continue reading

Why I take the media less seriously these days….
When I go online and I look at [a] my homepage (MSN.com) and [b] the AOL.com opening page, and I see both pages prominently featuring a headline about something Joe the F***ing Idiot Plumber Whom Nobody With Half a Brain … Continue reading
