Good Sport Or Bad Sport, Follow The Rules If You Play The Game

Dear Millennial Voters, All Of You, From Air And Water

  The future is closer than you think, and you, millennial voters, will have the final say on the future you want.   Now the last thing you give two damns about is a rant from a flowing silver haired, mustachioed, Mark Twain wannabe blogger. I get it.   But, sometimes people need a little […]

TEACHER ABUSE BAD FOR STUDENT BODY

  How does a seasoned school administrator lose their job by ignoring students? When they decide some student voices are more important than others.   The old saying about a squeaky wheel getting the grease may apply here, but the school official was out of lube. Now they’re out of a job, or will be […]

DONALD TRUMP, JUST ANOTHER SMALL TOWN BOY?

    By paying attention and listening harder, I’ve learned what it means when men are who they say they are, and when they aren’t.

LAURA INGRAHAM COACHES LeBRON JAMES WIN

    By now the news on Laura Ingraham telling LeBron James to ‘shut up and dribble’ ought to be cooked to perfection.

Travel Bans From History, Who Should Be Banned

    Travel bans tend to be specific in terms of where to go and where not to go.   Travel bans say one thing: Don’t go there, girlfriend. Stay away, pal.   Like a dress code in the NY disco dancing prime time of the late ’70’s, while punk rock was getting ready to […]

Male Abuse Handled The Man Way Works For Women

    Sports talk star Jim Rome has the sort of face that asks to be punched. He’s that good, my favorite sports personality. And he talks the best smack on radio, hands down.   Even his respectful interviews even sound like verbal male abuse.   I grew up during the reign of Howard Cosell, […]

Forgiveness Work, Once You Start It Never Ends

    The hardest part about forgiveness work is knowing where to stop. And when.   If life is spinning out of control and you’re grasping for a line, a branch, a helping hand, forgiveness may not be the first thing on your mind. Hard to forgive anything with the roof crashing down and the […]
