Shouldn’t Sexual Harassment Cross Political Lines? I need to begin this week’s installment of TRUTH: In 1000 Words or Less by suggesting that it certainly has been a disheartening past few weeks when it comes to the topic of sexual harassment. Seriously, if there is anyone left in Washington, D.C. or Los Angeles that has […]
Technology Makes Us Dumber
Technology Makes Us Dumber You know, believe it or not, there was a time once long ago, back in the 1990’s I believe it was, when I knew how to find my way to places without a GPS. They had these things back then; I believe they called them “maps”. I’m not sure what became […]
Love Them Anyways
Love Them Anyways We all have that friend, colleague or family member that drives us absolutely insane. I’m not talking just a little bit cornbally- you know, humorously eccentric but lovable for all of their adorable quirks.

It seemed to me to represent the height of pretension, the type of self-centered jackassedness best embodied by Ted Knight in the seminal classic Caddyshack, and so I eschewed playing the sport until […]
Tragedy Brings Us Together
Tragedy Brings Us Together I must admit that I have never been a fan of organized religion. Don’t get me wrong, I’m fine with anyone believing whatever the heck they like.

I Hear Guam is Nice This Time of Year
I Hear Guam is Nice This Time of Year Do you remember those old videos from the 1950’s in which schools went through regimented nuclear war training with students, teaching them how to huddle beneath their desks in the case of a nuclear attack? Yeah, they might want to bring those back. Because shit with […]
