Spoiling the Bunch

by admin | Jun 3, 2020 | EMS, End of the World as we know it, Mr Sunshine, politics, Rebel in the making, Society

I’m going to take a moment to talk about the recent murder of George Floyd, and how it’s part of a continued trend, and try to take a swipe at one of the pillars of the problem. Pretty much everyone can agree that Floyd’s murder was beyond the pale. That it was...

Putting Things in Perspective

by admin | Mar 24, 2020 | EMS, End of the World as we know it, politics, Society

Not a post about writing, today. Just something I need to say. For all the people urging the reopening of the economy and ending social distancing in the Covid 19 pandemic because “we can’t let the cure be worse than the disease,” citing damage to...

If You complain About Cheap Oil, I May Have to Smack You

by admin | Jan 22, 2016 | Joys of home ownership, Living the Dream, Middle class, Society

I will brook no scaremongering about how cheap oil is tanking the stock market. Lemme lay this out for you. Q: “Eeek! My 401K” A: Shut up. This is how every company scares us any time something gets proposed that may cost them money, like making it illegal...
