111. Now & Then
February 18, 2012
You know, every once in a while I zone-out and review my life, mainly to count blessings, which have been numerous. So far it’s been a good ride with (I hope) more to come. I do not dwell in the past, but I do permit myself a review looking for “lessons learned” in order to improve the future. In ot...

112. An Idiot's Tale of Singapore (Part 2)
February 11, 2012
To complete this tale of idiocy and temporary insanity, which (according to Shakespeare) signifies nothing; here I sit at three o’clock in the morning writing the conclusion to one slice of my life…
…so we left the sisters from Washington DC at their hotel. We wanted to dodge them as mu...

113. An Idiot's Tale of Singapore (Part 1)
February 08, 2012
William Shakespeare wrote, “Life is a tale told by an idiot—full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.” Although I readily admit to telling my tale with a touch of idiocy, I disagree with the bard that ones life is not significant; at least for the short-term. I do agree that long-term (con...

114. The Emerging American Gangster
February 04, 2012
You know how sometimes you zone-out and a random thought pops into your unsuspecting noggin? Lately I’ve been thinking about gangsters; but, not those sleepy-eyed, clown-attired, speech-slurring, dope-using, halfwits who call themselves gangstas. No, my thoughts have been focused on an emerging type...

115. Political Bench Jockeying
January 29, 2012
You know, I’m in the mood to (…I almost wrote make sport of…) point out some human deficiencies (in other people of course), but not in a mean way. The spirit of my satire is intended to be friendly, good-natured, and self-deprecating, but also to communicate lessons learned and food for thought (or...

116. Our Nerf Ball Culture vs. Romney & the NFL
January 25, 2012
You know, as I grow older I seem to have less and less tolerance for the indiscriminate slinging of pure, unadulterated bullshit. Trouble is I don’t know how much worse it is today compared to earlier in my lifetime on account o’ I happen to have an extra portion of cluelessness in my DNA; I'm by na...

117. Cocktails
January 18, 2012
My very first alcoholic drink was tepid beer on an atypical Midwestern July afternoon; that is, the day was sunny and clear rather than the usual steam bath with a cloudless yet colorless sky. I was sixteen and standing on the bank of the Maumee River near Kingsbury Park with Rimer, Livingston, and ...

118. The DC Marching Society
January 09, 2012
Since this is a major election year, I thought I’d open 2012 with a rant about politicians and “we the people” who aid-and-abet them in what they do so well. You’ll notice, during the introduction, I change verse form several times. That’s because I’m bizarre. I hear a wonderful (if oddball) syncopa...

119. US Economy: The REAL Culprit!
December 17, 2011
For 2011… This is my last turn / My very last burn / Time to review / See what I can learn... This is my last time / My very last line / Squeeze on my brain / See what’s on my mind... It’s my last time, baby / Pretty soon I gotta go / I’ll be with you this year / But next one...

120. Occupiers: Envy & Shame?
December 08, 2011
What’s really behind the impetus for the Occupy Wall Street (et. al.) horde? What is the cause-and-effect relationship?
Here’s my take: The multitude is consumed with resentment and humiliation, but they don’t understand why. Not really. And as is often the case, perceived reasons are seldom...
