I went to see Justice League this afternoon and about halfway through, it hit me: This movie is pretty damn good. I’m intrigued by the story, never bored with the action and I care about the characters. In other words, despite what the critics tell you—Justice League does not suck. Not even close. Now [...]
It’s been a year now since America elected Donald Trump as president and if there’s one thing I still just can’t over it is this number: 58 percent. See according the Pew Center…that’s the percentage of White voters who supported trump … even after the guy played the race card…maliciously… throughout the campaign. He is [...]
When I graduated from American University waaaay back in 1981…. Our speaker was some Reagan administration person who was so important and bigtime that I cannot recall his name. Still some of my fellow graduates were so incensed by this man’s prescence…that when he took the stage they stood up and turned their backs on [...]
President Trump’s ..uh..fiery rehetoric regarding North Korea has left him with a set of bad choices. Rain fire and fury down on the North Koreans and start and awful war no one with any sense wants…. Or don’t … and risk being seen as a big talker with more mouth than muscle. The stakes are [...]
Mr. Trump Goes to Washington My old man used to have a saying…. If it was easy…everyone would do it. Its an ancient truism made brand new again… by the flailing presidency of Donald Trump. These last 5 months we’ve seen Trump smacked upside the head over and over again by just how intractable and [...]
INTRO: Did you see Steeler Wide out Antonio brown twerking in the endzone last Monday night? Well..the NFL sure did and they’re already doling out the fines. Our derek mcginty wonders when the NO Fun League will get the message….and lighten up. Anybody remember the XFL? Back in 2001…it was professional wrestling’s answer to the [...]
United blew this one on so many levels its hard to know where to start….but how about we begin with the basic economics of this thing: When an airline overbooks and then asks you to voluntarily give up your seat… give is the wrong word…they want to buy it from you with a voucher or [...]
What if one day soon… President Trump tweets out the usual crazy in the early morning hours….and almost no one noticed or cared? Already… the conservative Wall street journal editorial page has blasted our President for his constant lies… …saying quote…if he doesn’t show more respect for the truth most Americans may conclude he’s a [...]
I am frankly flabbergasted by all this righteous indignation on the left about President Obama and his 400-thousand dollar speaking fee. Senator and leading progressive Bernie Sanders says the ex-president getting paid so much…quote just doesn’t look good…and is in his words.. distasteful. Fellow progressive senator Elizabeth Warren says she’s troubled by it. Really?? Cause [...]
Whenever I’m tempted to get all nostalgic when something old and cherished is about to go the way of all flesh/things…. I always pull up short and ask myself a question: when was the last time I or anyone I know actually went there? In the case of the Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey circus [...]
