111. Final Odyssey (For a Guy Like Me)
February 17, 2013
Sooner or later humanity will have to learn how to deal with the sun when it becomes a red giant and vaporizes everything on this rock. We’re talking maybe 100 million years in the future. Of course before then the moon may escape Earth’s gravity (it’s moving away about an inch and a half a year), a...

112. Racism--Liberal Style
February 11, 2013
This essay is not intended to be a hit job on the libs. It’s just that whenever I see blatant phoniness and transparent pandering, no matter where it comes from, I feel compelled to throw the bullshit flag, y’know? See the problem with me is I happen to be a thinker. Genuine racism is odious...

113. Happy New Year Blues
January 13, 2013
According to tradition, at least that of our Western culture, the genesis of each new calendar year is time for a NEW beginning, an opportunity to restart of one’s life, and/or a chance for a do-over. This custom is based upon our prevailing human condition, which features convoluted logic derived f...

114. Weird Christmas Thoughts
December 20, 2012
I wasn’t sure I should write this blurb; I mean the world ends December 21, doesn’t it? Hey, I got a flash: maybe ONLY Mayans are targeted for extinction. Why not? The Long Count Calendar belongs to them. We’ve superseded it with the Roman calendar. Unconnected thought: Isn’t it amazing tha...

115. Society of Bullies?
December 02, 2012
For one reason or another, lately I've come across a lot of media concern/hype about bullying. I started to write an essay on the subject for Amazines, but got carried away (I tend to do that), and the essay morphed into a novel about what could happen when a hapless victim decides to retaliate agai...

116. Thanksgiving
November 13, 2012
As Thanksgiving approaches this year I’m battling a greasy, black funk of depression that threatens to consume my very soul. I sit in a dark corner with a mind-altering chemical (on the rocks), listening to “Faust”, and reflecting on my favorite holiday from years past. Once the day was idyllic; a w...

117. Mandate of the People
November 08, 2012
The election’s over! Hip, hip, hooray and hot damn! Also, hot dog! (A kosher one for my Jewish friends.) In my heart-of-hearts I do not expect anything to change except an upsurge of hate-and-discontent, bitching-and-griping, gridlock, non-action, denial, projection-of-blame, and higher taxes. My co...

118. Dot, Dot, Dot...
October 21, 2012
I have some unconnected thoughts that have been rattling around in my bean. You know; the kind that occurs over and over again through the years that you mostly ignore, but that you never quite purge? I mean, they’re not earth-shattering thoughts or even all that profound. Many began when you were a...

119. The Diversified States of America; The Good Ol' DSA
September 08, 2012
That’s right! We must CELEBRATE diversity in all its forms—unless you are of European heritage or Christian of course. That would be racist you see. At least that’s what the PC crowd tells me. Being UNITED is passé because today it’s all about the proverbial ME. ME, ME! (Or reparations owed, or the ...

120. SILENT EYES
August 08, 2012
You know, when I’m in the middle of quiet time, which is mainly while running, biking, and swimming, my mind wanders into a bewildering place. Yesterday I started thinking about Plato’s, “The Myth of the Cave”, where people who have never left the cave and never seen either daylight or fire, and onl...
