This was Masters week. I watched it intently. I love golf.  I even love watching golf. And I love watching the Masters most of all. The thing is, based on every principle I hold dear, I should hate it. The network advertises its Masters telecast as “A Tradition Like No Other.” I tend to agree. There … Continue reading A Tournament So Well Named →

There is another problem that is now the subject of raging debate. It ranks somewhere in-between the survival of civilization and the winner of the NBA Eastern Division. It is the … Continue reading Cuomo Esta Usted →

We also stored our mitts by rubbing them with linseed oil, putting a baseball inside them and wrapping  them with a rubber band.

Well, of course, the easy … Continue reading The Fauci Phenomenon →

First of all, I guess I should apologize for the title of this piece.  With all woke propriety, it should be “C’mon Person.”  Then, again, C’mon Man! I’m as liberal as the next guy even if the next guy is Bernie Sanders. However, I’ll now probably be criticized by other liberals for that last sentence. They’ll complain that … Continue reading C’Mon Man! →

And they exclaimed, “This is your god, O Israel, who brought you from the land of Egypt!” When Aaron … Continue reading Golden Trump →

The clouds separate and the new applicant appears before the Pearly Gates. Gatekeeper: (shuffling papers):Are you Limbaugh? Rush: Of course, I am. Everyone knows me.  Gatekeeper: Not here. (Shuffling more papers). Rush: You’re kidding me, right? Look over your head.

A “travesty” is defined as a “perversion,” or “distortion,” or even, “farce.” The phrase, “travesty of justice” is often over-used.  When anybody doesn’t get what they want, they are heard to say that their loss was a “travesty of justice.” When the diner has run out of the raisin toast you wanted on your sandwich, that’s … Continue reading Signifying Nothing →
