ARIES (March 21-April 19): When emotions peak on the 30th, 31st and 1st, call on someone you trust to point you in the right direction. Take the information you gather and personalize your plan of attack to fit your budget and timeline. Keep your life simple, your goal doable and your focus on what’s important. Don’t expect everyone to agree with you on the 2nd and 3rd. A … [Read more...]
The Couch Surprise
Most people will not admit embarrassing things. I am not “most people.” As a matter of fact, most of the people I know are not “most people.” My friends and I are finally at the age that the weirder side of life makes for the best laughter. If we can’t laugh at ourselves what’s left. Here’s the story. Living alone has many drawbacks. Nobody but the last person standing in … [Read more...]
Pick your chaos — Trump’s or Biden’s?
Donald Trump’s lone primary opponent, Nikki Haley, likes to say chaos follows him and that’s why he shouldn’t be president again. But, if we’re to be completely honest, when you weigh Trump’s personal assholery against whatever the hell’s been going on with the Joe Biden administration in the last three years, you can see why Trump still has better than a puncher’s chance at … [Read more...]
Commissar T-Rump Serves Czar RasPutin
Today’s mish-mashed media morass of news and entertainment (there’s a difference?) favors the defrocked president. Throw so much out there many times a day that it’s hard for the pros, let alone the proles, to focus on any one thing. So T-Rump can focus all at will.

This task came up just a few days ago when one friend … [Read more...]

Fani Willis hired a lawyer to prosecute the case who not only seems eminently … [Read more...]
Ben Franklin’s bleary bifocals
Once upon a time, Americans looked back wistfully on our formative days. Such a time was 1976, the 200th anniversary of the founding of our great experiment in government by the people -- more specifically, property-owning white guys, but that was then and this is now. Sorta. We live in a time when black-robed ammotextuals act as unelected governments, viewing all laws … [Read more...]
Justice for a bad son
Jason Statham’s new action/revenge movie “The Beekeeper” features the kind of bad guy we all disdain – a privileged, creepy son using his powerful family name to skirt the law and hurt people. Sound familiar? It should because we’re living that screenplay right now in the daily news with the saga of Hunter Biden. In the fictional plot of “The Beekeeper,” the bad seed son … [Read more...]
