Begun on July 4th: completed on July 9th I wanted to follow-up The Oldest Profession with something trite suggesting that the POTUS likes \”naughty\” women (with a-bit-of-an-edge to them) — like Ivana; Marla Maples (not as naughty as the others); Stormy Daniels; Karen McDougall; and of course, current Wife, Melania. But Bill Maher\’s 6/29 show […]
June 24, 2018 My apologies to my readers if this feels like an uneven read — for some reason I couldn\’t bring this one home…it is a rather dry set up for Part II — which is about Trump and his \”dirty\” women. I just couldn\’t seem to make the Two parts fit into a

June 3, 2017 While I am quite enamored with Samantha Bee, and enjoy Roseanne\’s outspokenness — we are beginning to see the madness of the Trump Reign leaking-all-over. And not only in increased school violence: Hell! I just saw that an admitted pedophile is running for public office. The ceremony of innocence is drowning… If

May 15, 2018 All animals are created equal… But some animals are more equal than others…(reflections from Animal Farm) I wanted to title this piece: Enter the New Jester — in honor of a person who can apparently say anything to — and around — the king and still keep his job as Fool. And
April 26, 2018 I will take an essay off from the madness that is Trump: I feel a reckoning coming…and I also miss Aaron MacGruder\’s Boondocks — the most savagely correct comic strip I have ever read… Having tired of Blondie\’s outdated (and now naive) commentary of work, marriage and family; and finding Dilbert becoming
April 7, 2018 I think this attempt will be more of a \”Bits and Pieces\” approach — as striving for a coherent whole seems to be a useless exercise in-the-age-of-150-words. We live in a time of fragmentation — where all One needs is — a vitriolic slogan to rationalize One\’s existence: like \”Lock Her Up\”;

March 26, 2018 South Africa is perched on one of the most precarious multi-cultural experiments of all time: where the Black majority (I can\’t call them a hegemony — as \’economic apartheid\’ still persists) could possible overwhelm White, Chinese, Indian and Mixed Race South Africans and re-create Zimbabwe (know once as \’southern\’ Rhodesia). I had

March 23, 2018 I waited too long! I had the title \”Stormy Weather\” ready to go 2-weeks-ago — but because I struggled to finish this attempt — my beloved L.A. Times beat me to the punch with a feature proffering this title in today\’s edition. To top it off — I now have to worry

March 11, 2018 I\’ve watched enough X-Files — AND met a person who swore he\’d been to Area 51 — to believe that We are not alone! I\’m also pretty sure that I once wrote about bizarre lights that I saw over Auburn Hills (MI) — and saw again in a news report years later

February 17, 2018 My writing is becoming like a woman\’s period — it only seems to happen once-a-month these days… I thought I would be saying President Pence before I ever said President Putin — but at-the-time I suggested a President Pence, I didn\’t know that the Trump Brand had been engaged in money laundering
