VULNERABLE MEN: “SOMETHING’S IN MY EYE”

Vulnerable men are all over the place. We don’t see them because they don’t want us to know. Here’s a big “THANK YOU” for that. But sometimes it’s the other way around. With the parade of sensitive men recently reduced, I don’t trust my own instincts. William Hurt’s passing was sad news, another example that […]

FUTURE PLANS? CHOOSE THE RIGHT PATH

Who is making plans for the future? Now that the covid pandemic is over, now that there’s world peace, and you’ve reached your life goals, the future looks bright? Not so fast, my hopefuls.

HONOR LIFE WHEREVER IT’S FOUND

How do you honor life when you don’t understand how anyone could live the way some people live? First, try to understand instead of judging. Besides, if you don’t understand their way of life, chances are they don’t understand your’s either. Remember, it’s not a contest, but if it was, the winner is the one […]

GOING HOME THE LONG WAY

If going home doesn’t bring the warm and fuzzies, you need to review. Are bad memories of a bad home town a problem? You should check your map for the best way to get there. If current times are any measure, being homeward bound is not getting any easier.

OVERSTOCK CLEARANCE ON THE WEAPONS AISLE

Overstock clearance is a common marketing ploy. Who doesn’t like a good deal in life? Get a deal on car, a guitar, or a weight set and you’re good to go. Is it the same with ordnance? What do you do if you’re a ruthless dictator with an overstock of missiles aging out on an […]

TREAT TRAINING FOR WORLD PEACE JEANS

Treat training for a teething puppy is better than a bloody hand every time you pet it. Ask me how I know. Could it work for rogue nations intent on attacking neighbors like said puppy attacks everything as if their existence depends on it? Try explaining how this works to the dog before you call […]

FIRST YOU SCREW UP, THEN THE FALLOUT

When you screw up, you know it. At least you should know. Something is broken, or lost, or stolen because of you? After that the decisions start to pile up. Tell others what happened? Admit to your self? Or, pretend nothing happened, nothing to see, and move along. Which one are you?

RESPECT YOURSELF FIRST? IT TAKES SOME PRACTICE

Try and respect yourself when you see others doing the wrong thing. But, maybe they don’t know they’re doing something wrong, and you don’t want to correct them? If you know better, then what’s your excuse for not doing better? Call it a lifestyle, or a life choice, or maybe just being a decent person. […]

LEADERSHIP TRAINING WITH HOSPITALITY KING TRUMP

Leadership training comes in two flavors: you’re born with it, or you learn it. Those choices exclude too many, though. Some rise to leadership based on circumstances. Where someone would ordinarily lay back, the situation calls for them, for someone, to lean forward. Did Trump, the Hospitality King, receive leadership training, or was he born […]

CITIZENSHIP TEST: ARE YOU JERK?

A citizenship test for America needs to ask this question to new arrivals: Are you now, or have you ever been, a jerk, a punk, a piece of work? It’s not a disqualifying question for being a good citizen. You can be a jerk and still be a citizen. We just need to know ahead […]
