  • Political Shenanigans

    Political Shenanigans

    While I am a strong advocate of democracy, election season is my least favorite time of year primarily due to the over abundance of political ads. But, the bright side to this is the ads are getting more and more entertaining. Election season is that wonderful time where television commercials and social media feed transform…

  • The Big No-No’s of Writing

    Writing might symbolize freedom of speech, but there are some things writers, and people in general, don’t need to speak about… Over the course of my public writing career, and still now, plenty of people have offered up advice about what I should write about. These conversations often start out with a line like, “Hey,…

  • I Voted. Did You?

    I Voted. Did You?

    Not much to say on this… If you don’t vote, you can’t complain. If you did vote, hopefully you voted correctly. If you did not vote correctly, I will probably be complaining.

  • I Voted, Because I Can…

    I Voted, Because I Can…

    It’s not about who I’m voting for. It’s about the fact I CAN vote. I wrote this on November 2nd, 2021. It was an off cycle election day in the United States, meaning it wasn’t a presidential vote, or anything else major like congressional or senate choices.

    I Need a Sign to Ban Election Signs!

    Election season is almost upon us. This means all the “vote for me” signs are popping up like weeds in yards of homes and on street corners. To be blunt, I don’t care who you plan to vote for… There are two things in life everyone should keep to themselves: Politics and religion. Yes, I…

    Election Day – A Time For Friendship (Not)

    Oh election day… How do I love thee? Let me count the ways… I’ve overheard so many conversations recently about “who are you going to vote for?”, which is usually followed by either “thank goodness” or “oh my God, why?”. I’ve watched the facial expressions of disbelief when someone disagrees with whoever is asking the…

  • Can I Have Lunch With President Trump Like Kanye West Did?

    Can I Have Lunch With President Trump Like Kanye West Did?

    On 10/11/18, rapper and national village idiot Kanye West had a “working lunch” with President Trump to discuss critical issues affecting our nation. For anyone who knows Kanye West, including White House staffers, this should have immediately raised a few red flags that something stupid was coming. For whatever reason despite common sense saying otherwise,…

  • Be the Change…VOTE!

    Be the Change…VOTE!

    Morals and values seem to have fallen by the wayside. Respect and kindness are things of the past. Common sense has become an offensive phrase that should never be mentioned. Crime is out of control, our public schools are on the verge of collapse and our political system has become a joke. Our world is…
