I find it interesting that the “Occupy” protesters have become just like the people in Washington, D.C. They began with a wonderful purpose and now they have degenerated into a mob without purpose, infiltrated by those hell-bent on merely having vandalistic ‘fun.’ The detritus they are leaving in cities like New York, Boston, Oakland, and [...]
In love with college athletics

I’m a great fan of college athletics. Following the beauty of summer there are few things I look forward to more than Saturday football in the fall. Author and literary critic, Paul Fussell maintains that, “The more violent the body contact of the sports you watch, the lower your class.” Egad, and here I was [...]
Doctors, hospitals, and me

I’m not certain for whom or which I have the greatest distaste. Is it doctors, those pompous, arrogant, cocksure practitioners of what they call medicine? Or perhaps it’s the hospitals where, if you are in the emergency room with anything short of a heart attack or a body covered in blood, you are treated as [...]

Oh, good, I have my own civil rights group. I never realized that. I think I’ll ask them to picket my doctor’s office. Ya see, at six-one, two-fifty, he calls me really obese. Now when I look at myself in a full-length mirror (ego does that to ya, ya know), I don’t think I compare [...]
Let’s take color out of the equation

I suppose that if I were a Native American homeless female veteran with prosthesis, that I should form a caucus that says President Obama isn’t doing enough to help my group. The Congressional Black Caucus is behaving like a bunch of “ghetto gimmees,” and their using the argument that they are the reason Obama even [...]
Help me understand government…please!

This past spring saw some of the worst weather the United States has seen in sometime. Tornadoes in Oklahoma, Missouri, Alabama, Mississippi, Minnesota, Indiana Illinois, and even Massachusetts have wrought death and destruction wherever they touched down. FEMA along with President Obama and Congressional delegations from each state have visited the towns and cities, some [...]
Today I will be a racist

Today I will be a racist. Yes, I am, as a friend told me recently, going to be as “vitriolic” as all hell. I’m going on an all-out attack against those who accuse me of persecuting them, of doing bad things to them, of calling them racial epithets, and probably think of me as performing [...]

Let’s talk about colleges and universities. A bit of background first, if you will maestro…I attended college at a time when the bulk of them were not that difficult for admittance. This was at the end of the Korean War, which wasn’t called a war, but a police action. I’ve never really figured out who [...]
