Your mileage may vary…….

Today is June 23, the 42nd anniversary of the day I made the biggest mistake of my life, getting married only 6 weeks out of college. The intervening years have amplified how big a mistake that was and how much better it would have been if I had spent my 20’s (or longer) in hedonistic… Continue reading Your mileage may vary…….

Be careful what you wish for….

For you may surely get it. This morning, on my way into work, I heard a story on NPR about the Congressional effort by Kirsten Gillibrand to pass legislation to take the power of prosecuting sexual assault cases in the military out of the hands of Court Martial Convening authorities and place them in the… Continue reading Be careful what you wish for….

Everyone celebrates in their own way.

Well, here it is March again – that wonderful time of the year. And thus, today is International Women’s Day. Certainly, I celebrate women – or would – if the pandemic had not trashed a full year of Asian and Oceanic travel. Thailand and the Philippines are still non-starters for destinations. The S.O. can’t even… Continue reading Everyone celebrates in their own way.

She still has the ring. It still does not mean a thing.

So. It’s 2020 and another election cycle. That means it’s time once again to comment on yet another Nancy Mace political campaign. It’s now been ten years that she has been either running for office or scheming to run for office, and she still has placed herself on the side of evil. I first commented… Continue reading She still has the ring. It still does not mean a thing.

I’m not sure there really is a lighter side or humor to be had when 4321 Americans die in one 24 hour period. That’s over one 9-11 each day for the last week. And here, even as I write this, there are deranged idiots out, doing the bidding of some really vile people holding “demonstrations”… Continue reading Now for something totally different

In yet another sign of an impending apocalypse………

And here you thought I had forgotten Women’s History Month. Yes, that oh so special time of the year when we get to celebrate the history that women want us to know about while whitewashing the details they would rather just not see printed in the paper. And its a cold day in hell when I… Continue reading In yet another sign of an impending apocalypse………

Uh, excuse me, this is what you said you wanted.

Remember in the run-up after the Gulf War, when the first big push for dropping the combat exclusion laws started and women said they “just wanted to be treated like the men”. It seems someone did not get the memo: Allegations that “sexually explicit humor” and the display of “pornographic images” were allowed — and sometimes encouraged… Continue reading Uh, excuse me, this is what you said you wanted.
