While I was out…….

Here it is, May 4th, and I have not made a post since New Years Eve 2018. It was an unplanned hiatus, I assure you. During the past 5 months I have: Been on the hunt for a new and better job. A job hunt brought about by a worthless

New Years Eve

Tomorrow I will have a philosophical New Year’s post. In three hours my 2018 will end and it will be 2019, the 20th anniversary of when a worthless piece of shit tried to abuse his medical license to interfere in my life. It is also the beginning of a year

It’s all downhill from here…..

This has been a busy week, I am in the middle of a heavy travel schedule and have also been just in shock watching the “President” show the entire world how fundamentally unfit for the the job he is. If the last two weeks have not convinced you how totally

The future that was stolen from us.

Sorry for the long delay in posting. Was on the road last week to the land of milk and honey and also had a fair amount of work to do. I have been taking a lot of time to do some thinking both forward and back, when a decision is
