July 24, 2016 by

June 5, 2016 by

You’ve seen comments for D-Day Millennials on social media. It’s not good, those comments. They start with remarks on a ‘safe place’ and move to ‘what kind of pussified men are we raising?’ Consider the sources if you can. Unless it’s Sergeant Rock talking, don’t get too concerned.

WHO GETS FOOLED AGAIN? WHO? WHO?

May 12, 2016 by

Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Baby boomers grew up with The Man. It wasn’t daddy, but daddy knew The Man. Sometimes daddy was on The Man reserve. Who is The Man? It’s the police Man. We saw him at the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. The Man swung a hard […]

INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN BOOMER

April 18, 2016 by

I hear you asking, “What’s a ‘proven’ boomer?” You know what a ‘made man’ is in the Mafia? They’ve taken an assignment from the boss and done good with it. Usually the assignment that makes you a Made Man also makes you a Button Man. You push the button, pull the trigger, you’re a made […]

THE TICKING BABY BOOMERS

December 27, 2015 by

We didn’t start the fire? Maybe, but ticking baby boomers sure throw on the logs. A recent statement about relationships explains how you should never let others know what makes you tick. Why?

December 22, 2015 by

Who can take a hit best? Read MMA Republicans in the Octagon. The Sunday Oregonian ran a column by E.J. Dionne of the Washington Post titled ‘GOP plays at being television tough guys.’ Not to pick to closely but that’s the only place most of us will ever hear them. On television.
