Today Donald Trump claimed that he almost died in a helicopter crash with Cedric the Entertainer. This makes the forty-eighth person that Mr. Trump claimed was with him. All of them are black. When Mr. Entertainer was contacted, he said that he has no recollection of the incident. He said the only time he ever met … Continue reading Things We May Soon See

If Political Cliches Only Worked in Real Life
Both conventions are over. The only place in Chicago that had more bullshit in it was the stockyards. Everyone can recognize political cliches. You can probably list a dozen off the top of your head. Yet, at these conventions, those cliches are applauded and extolled as if they were Shakspearian sonnets. Hooray for being in … Continue reading If Political Cliches Only Worked in Real Life
And It’s 1-2-3 What Are We Cheering For
I both love and hate the Olympics. I am an ardent sports fan. I watch Cornhole matches, so why wouldn’t I watch the greatest athletes in the world compete with each other? I do and I love it. I hate the flag waving. I mean, really, is my country any better than your country because … Continue reading And It’s 1-2-3 What Are We Cheering For
The Sudden Savior
I am fervently hoping that Kamala Harris will trounce Dangerous Donald. The problem is that it’s hard to imagine.

During the Biden Presidency, the common refrain was that Joe better not die because then we’ll be saddled … Continue reading The Sudden Savior

Moderator: Excuse me, President Trump? I was just thanking you . . . Trump: Doesn’t matter. You’re a liar. What I mean is I don’t know who … Continue reading The Great Debate
Hold Your Whoopee
As I write this, the Supremes today decided the Rahimi case in a way that restricts gun rights. There are many who will greet this decision with a loud and boisterous “Whoopee. We finally won one!” Well, hold your Whoopee, fellas. It ain’t that good. As the old saying goes, there are times when you … Continue reading Hold Your Whoopee

Alito Ain’t No Uncle Sam
Through my friendships with a couple of people who are close to Justice Samuel Alito, I was fortunate enough recently to meet with the Justice for a short interview. Here is a report of what happened. This transcript has been edited by the Justice, so it includes only those portions that he thought placed him … Continue reading Alito Ain’t No Uncle Sam
Things Our Mothers Said
There are a number of things that our mothers (and possibly fathers) told us that, in retrospect, deserve another look. I mean the stuff that has been said for generations, if not millennia. How have they stood up over the years? The first is what the world calls, The “Golden Rule”. Everyone knows it: Do unto … Continue reading Things Our Mothers Said
