I see daily in the mainstream media, and Left-leaning online sites that it is Conservatives who “don’t get it”, who are “behind the times”, and who need to “get-up-to-speed” with our new reality.
Excuse me, but if our new reality includes a world where murderer Alec Baldwin and his fame whore wife gain a cable show that people choose to watch I’m out. Done, gone, moved away from society into a world of my own.
I refuse to participate in a culture that would glorify a man guilty of some form of manslaughter, and feature his manipulative and self-absorbed insanity of a wife. The Boston girl with a mysterious Spanish accent.
You want to live in a world absent all morality and decency, have at it. Take Hunter Biden with you. Make it a gated community, add in the entire Kardashian clan. While you are at it take Megan Fox, Charlize Theron, Rob Reiner, and as many Hollywood loonies as you can.
I’d sleep better knowing you were all ensconced in one place where you could sink into degradation and filth in some modern day Sodom and Gomorrah.

Have you ever seen this tape?
For some reason everyone that watches this tape comes away with some cute message about just how great a player Larry Bird was, and how nice it was for Mr. Richardson to acknowledge this in his Hall-of-Fame speech.
I don’t get it.
This is just racism pure and simple, dressed in being cute.
Let me ask you, if it isn’t racist to assume a great player you hear on radio just has to be Black, what is the difference when someone walking down a city street, sees a Black man behind them and assumes they are going to get robbed? Blacks are the majority in the NBA, and the majority in perpetrating inner city crime. Yet if you are the one walking down the city street and think ill of the Black man behind you, then you are a racist, but if you naturally assume all great basketball players are Black, well, isn’t that cute? If I hear about this Ben Carson, brain surgeon, saving lives, and then am shocked to see he is black, isn’t that racist? Yes it is.
We are going through this same narrative with Caitlin Clark invading the WNBA and getting the big contract, and all the attention.
A few black players are rather upset that Caitlin Clark is getting all the attention and are roughing her up purposely in a demonstration of jealousy and rage over not being compensated as well, and not getting the same attention.
Sorry but this is racism, Black people think they own the game of basketball since they make up some ninety percent of the players in the pro leagues. To hear that a white person might excel at the sport triggers Black people no end.
Never tell me Black people can’t be racist. Don’t hit me with that “you have to hold power” to be racist, and Blacks have no power in this country so they can’t be racist. That crap needs to be as discredited as Ibram X Kendi right now. Has that College in Massachusetts figured out where the 75 million went and how Kendi spent it so fast?
Grifters gonna grift.
At least the BLM thieves got a few prime homes out of the deal.
Racism is racism. Full stop.

Chris Cuomo needs to forget any future career in media. This gaslighting tour of “rehabilitation” he is on isn’t working. People have receipts. They taped the shows.
Chris needs to consider a job in that Macy’s junior management entry program, try another career.
The audience swallowing his old drivel and trusting his word is dwindling to nothing.
Cuomo’s only shot at making money with people tuning in to watch would be to start an “Only Fans” site in conjunction with his pal Don Lemon. There might be enough twisted Leftist to tune into that sexual circus, otherwise his career is done in media.

We were lied to, manipulated, and controlled during Covid by authoritarians who went mad with power and control.
Where is the anger? Where is the sense of outrage, of forcing them to pay a price for their mismanagement and heavy-handed behavior?
Are you on the Left so weak, have embraced cowardice to some degree that you enjoy having someone cower you into submission? Are you all Cucks?
What is wrong with you people?
Politicians like Gretchen Whitmer responded to Covid in every wrong way possible. She put small businesses out-of-business. She fired employees who wouldn’t kow-tow to her directives and get the shot. She lied about everything, parroting the false narratives about masks, distancing, being outdoors, the shots, all of it.
And yet you’d vote her back in.
I’m sorry to say this but you on the Left are freaking insane. Deluded. Nuts.
You deserve your fate, you deserve to live as a ward of the state and to have every freedom taken.
You deserve it, I don’t. And those like me won’t let you take us down with you.
Stand for something or you’ll fall for everything.
That is you, on the Left, falling.

This time of year the cantaloupe is ripe, beefsteak tomatoes are coming fresh off the vines, watermelon is back in season, and soon, very soon, the corn will “as high as an elephant’s eye”. The older I get the more susceptible I am to having a meal absent a protein. Which in my old world would have been unthinkable. You have to add beef, chicken, or pork to make it a meal, don’t you?
But no, you don’t. A few ears of corn, sliced tomatoes, and cantaloupe and I can be satisfied that I’ve eaten a good meal. Can’t believe I could be happy absent something heartier, but tis’ the season.

How do you feel about these days going by? Are they just speeding through for you too? There are days I refill the coffee pot and I feel as if I just did it, ten minutes earlier. Sometimes as I fill the coffee pot to make it easy to just press the button the next morning I feel like that old donut commercial, “time to make the donuts”, as if I am on a loop where all I do is fill a coffee pot.
I swear to you life right now feels like this commercial, everything is speeding by so rapidly that all I do is find myself filling the coffee machine with bottled water bottles, and grabbing the tub of Dunkin’ Donuts coffee and filter.
Once you pass sixty, life is one big blur.

Articles are beginning to appear questioning whether or not if Trump wins, will there be retaliation, will we see him use “Lawfare” against his opponents. Will we see various Democrats frog marched to the courts in some giant payback to Democrats for what they’ve done to Trump?
Have you experienced life with Republicans?
They are all as worthless as you can imagine, have no spine, and live in fear of all things Democrat. Their idea of Hell on earth is to have “The Washington Post” write something unfavorable about them. Every Republican in Congress would prostrate themselves before Nancy Pelosi and kiss her feet on the Capitol steps if it meant they can escape the wrath of Democrats and the media at large.
There is no chance anything happens to Fauci that murdering criminal, or anyone in the FBI for targeting Catholics and school moms. Nothing will happen to Merrick Garland for organizing four trials against Trump. Nothing will happen to Chris Wray for lying before Congress, or even Brennan and Clapper, who should be up for sedition. There will be no retribution for “Russiagate”, and the CIA will not be forced to give up copies of every Hillary E-mail which they clearly have in their possession. They collect all meta-data, every phone call , every e-mail, every online keystroke in the world in real time.
Speaking of Cucks earlier, there is no bigger Cuck than a Republican.

The wife started watching some HBO streamed show “Hacks”, I was told it was based loosely on the life of Joan Rivers, who I loved, so I agreed to go along and watch the show as well.
The show isn’t that good, it is crap really, but the “star” of the show Jean Smart does a nice job and portrays the lead part very well. The second lead, a bisexual Hollywood writer (of course they had to Lesbian the show up), doesn’t really carry the part off well. She has no appeal. You find that you don’t like her at all, she has no redeeming qualities. For such a big part in the show, you’d think they’d want the audience in her corner, but she is just detestable. A caricature. A “Woke” example of everything wrong with her generation. Hard to watch a show where one of the main characters is so loathsome.
The real “star” of the series is the assistant to Jean Smart’s agent, the actress Megan Stalter steals the entire show. I mean she is just so excellent in the part she glows every time she comes onto the screen. I’d watch the show just to see her play the part. She is funny, irreverent, spoiled, and perfect for the role. She plays the part perfectly.
If the writers and producers decide on a season four, I’d suggest a few story lines with the character. Although Jean Smart is good, and can carry a series, this bit part player is worth the entire show. Spinning her and the agent off into a half-hour sitcom would be gold.

So Biden is “cracking down” on the border and adding security, only allowing some 1.8 million in a month or some such ridiculous figure. And the mainstream media goes along with the charade that he is “closing the border”.
Is anyone out there really going to fall for this horse manure?
Are you telling me there are fence sitting voters who hear “Biden is clamping down on the border”, and actually believe it to be true, and allowing it to sway their vote?
Are there people that stupid in the US? That stupid and have a voters card? Seriously?
From now until a Trump 2024 Presidency the border is open. Wide. And that isn’t going to change. No matter what rhetoric coms out of the White House.

I don’t know about you but if I’m driving and hear “Running on Empty” begin on the radio my foot automatically goes down on the accelerator. The bass and drum song entrance just forces my right foot down to the floor. It is involuntary. The guitar lick kicks in and the needle just climbs, past fifty, past sixty, past seventy. I can’t control it, the song wires into some synapses in my head that controls the right foot.
By the time Jackson cries out “looking out at the road rushing under my wheels” there is no telling what speed the car is going. If I hear it out on I 95 I begin to pass cars like they are standing still.
Can’t stop, won’t stop.

Lot of pre-Summer articles out there on the ‘Net about French Fries. Listen up. There are two kinds of French Fries. McDonald’s makes the very best commercially available French Fries in the world. Damn things are excellent. Perfectly salted, perfect size and shape, there are no other French Fries available readily that come close.
Except for the fries that can be found at “Thrasher’s French Fries” on the boardwalk in Ocean City, Maryland. And who must be responsible for giving that style fry the moniker “Boardwalk Fries”.
Those fries are the greatest French Fry invention in the world, in the universe, and the only acceptable topping is malt vinegar. You should be banished from ever seeing the ocean again if you even consider putting ketchup onto those fries.
Summer is back, and it is Thrasher’s French Fry season. And just in case you were wondering, could I smash an entire bucket that size, the answer is yes, of course. Hand me the entire jar of Malt Vinegar, give me that bucket, and don’t watch, it won’t be a pretty sight. Once you’ve had those, there are no other Fries.
I’m still sitting in Florida as I type this, but it won’t be long….

Oh man would I love to fall into some bar this Summer and hear some Bluegrass music, and listen to a band play “Fox on the Run”
I know it is hackneyed, and trite, like asking for a Scruggs and Earl song to be played, but I love that song. Used to be a bar near home growing up, on Thursday evenings they’d have fifty cent hot dogs and dollar beers, and a small Bluegrass trio would play, this was somewhere around 1975 or so, and when they did “Fox on the Run” it was so sweet, and mournful, it would take your mind away to a warm and fuzzy place. Of course that also might have been the dollar beers. But I’d pay a cover this Summer to listen to some good old Bluegrass music.

For those of you living right now in downtown Baltimore, Chicago, San Francisco, New York City, St. Louis, Detroit, Portland, and New Orleans, do you really believe crime, serious crime, violent crime, is at a fifty year low?
Do you?
Really?

As we close in on the November election and article, after article comes out on some new “Bird Flu”, are you gonna buy it? If they try to enact some kind of public restraints, are you going to go along with it all?
Or are you going to question whether or not this “Bird Flu” announcement has something to do with allowing mass mail-in voting, an extension of voting hours and days, and a way to perhaps rig an election by ballot harvesting and ballot box stuffing?
After “Russiagate”, “Covid”, and “The Hunter Laptop is Russian Disinformation” are you really going to trust the mainstream media about some “Bird Flu” crap?

Apparently the very prim, proper, and “august” “Washington Post” newspaper is in some trouble having lost over a hundred million dollars last year. A new manager has come in and told all the writers that a new sheriff is in town, and he has brought in four other managers with him to “right the ship”.
Of course the very “Woke” writers and workers threw a complete fit when they found out all four new managers were white men, but this new guy put into charge isn’t playing around with that. He told them in no uncertain terms it was time for real people to take the helm, color be damned.
So instantly Twitter was full of people and articles giving advice on how to “save the Washington Post”.
Hey, here is a novel idea for them. How about telling the truth. Absent fear or favor. Stop being a DNC talking points rag, be critical of a government program that doesn’t work, be critical when California spends 24 billion with a “b” on the homeless and they get even more homeless to contend with, try just stop being a stenographer for the DNC and tell the God Damn truth.
What a novel idea. Stop taking sides, denigrating all things Republican, and gain a full audience. Take the great player Michael Jordan’s advice when asked why he didn’t make statements in support of radical positions, because the other half buys shoes too. You want to maximize your audience? Try to stop appealing to only 1/2.
Get your collective head out of your ass, go after Nancy for insider trading, and stop being protective of all things Democrat.
As for me, I would like to see both the “Washington Post”, as well as the “New York Times” go down in flames for being the rags they have become. I do not see either as the “newspapers of record in the US”, I see them for what they are, partisan rags that offer no basis in truth at all.
A pox on both their houses. How hard is it to just establish a newspaper and tell the truth? That shouldn’t be a novel idea.

Research McDonald’s fries, they are more than potatoes deep fried in fat. You will decide they aren’t the best.
