https://youtu.be/1CLhqjOzoyE Time to celebrate. Break out the bubbly, the cheese & crackers, turn on the game, crack open that can of rice beer. And what is it we celebrate? Well. What is about to happen, dear worst-reader, is more than just a new year. To (y)our joy this is a year just like the last and … Continue reading Repeating History Because You Like How It Tickles

Anti-Theist vs Atheist In The Church Pew
Anti-theist. There. I said it. (Pause.) It's who I am. The only problem is I don't feel any better by having said it. I mean, it's obviously not the same as coming out as gay or purple or a hetero who likes pink. But my therapist said that by going public with it, it will help … Continue reading Anti-Theist vs Atheist In The Church Pew
Packaging Hell And Out Of Season Berries
Don't worry, dear worst-reader. We all have too much time on our hands--especially during this time of year. The fact that I'm projecting my (too much) time on others in this manner is yet another indication that the transition from industrial age > technical servitude is almost complete. The good thing? It's just a blog. … Continue reading Packaging Hell And Out Of Season Berries
Who Has Sold You
Schadenfreude is not my thing. Nor do I wish any one ill-will. Live and let others live better--that's my motto. But there are times, moments, where I giggle and smirk at the goings and cummings of my beloved #americant and of those still trapped in all (her) confused greed-dollar-tendrils. On the other hand, of course, I … Continue reading Who Has Sold You
A Childhood's War On Xmas
It's not about being a bitter old man. It's not about happiness or tranquility. It's not about a xmas tree making one smile or cry--depending on the xmas tree topper. Indeed. This is a time of year to rejoice--but NOT in what you think. As I celebrate my own personal war on xmas, I do so … Continue reading A Childhood's War On Xmas
May The Blank Be With You
Disclaimer: some small spoilers but no big spoilers. And so it is done. And now that it's done, I've been thinking about how to worst-write about it. Here's what I've come up with so far: It was good but... Liked it except for... Getting too old, seen too many movies, been there done that (in 70s!)... Guess … Continue reading May The Blank Be With You
Pros & Cons Of The 6s
Pros: Force touch rocks even though I'm only using it to get to a cursor in order to edit text! Boy, do I dig this! Speed is ok, obviously a bump from my old 4s. But I actually thought about putting this in the cons. It's just not that impressive. The speed of the fingerprint reader is … Continue reading Pros & Cons Of The 6s
In Praise Of Dr. Capital And His Ism
Disclaimer: Names and some of the issues discussed but not places referred to have been changed in this blogpost to protect the innocent. §I told him right before we exited the plane at the terminal in PHL that I found our open and at times heavy inflight conversation fascinating. And then I thanked him with as … Continue reading In Praise Of Dr. Capital And His Ism
In The Land Of Jack And The Bean Counter
Depending on circumstance, I can get away with wifi usage on my phone when I enter the US. On the drive from PHL to Eastern Shore MD there are a few places one can stop to get a cup of earl grey, yawn from the transatlantic flight and check messages. And since the powers that … Continue reading In The Land Of Jack And The Bean Counter
Luxury Airlines, Funny Shoe Laces And Constitutions
Going for broke. Travel broke. Just one more trip. Trip to take me away. Away from what? Xmas? Responsibility? Btw, this is the first time I'll be without my better-half on Xmas since she took me in and became my better half twelve years ago. And I'm sad about that. But when families are stretched … Continue reading Luxury Airlines, Funny Shoe Laces And Constitutions
Lead Sinker Bon-Bon Welfare Queens
The first time I ever heard someone use the term "welfare queens" was when that dirty uncle was visiting for Thanksgiving dinner. You know the conversation that eventually rears its head at a such a family gathering. You not only got your lefts and your rights but you also got your ugly faces and morons--all stuffing … Continue reading Lead Sinker Bon-Bon Welfare Queens
US White Males And A Flat Earth Worth Jumping Off
Got caught in a rut the other night while trying to find my new girlfriend who is named Sleep. A heroic bitch she is and I don't know if my love for her is worth the effort. For as we all know love is an effort. For example, how many kisses have you wasted on … Continue reading US White Males And A Flat Earth Worth Jumping Off
Chancellor Of The Automatons Person Of The Year
Well, there you have it. Finally, after all these years--almost thirty years to be exact--a human female makes the big cover, the big issue. Time magazine has chosen its "person" of the year. Now. During such an occasion other (privileged) humans can see who/what... a human female that runs a really, really, really big corporation actually looks … Continue reading Chancellor Of The Automatons Person Of The Year
Kahn And The Donald
Multiple monitors inject (their) information into my brain every morning. The fun usually begins before six a.m. but on this particular morn it began at five. The information, of course, is the freak-show known as (the current iteration of the grand social, national, greed-show) #americant. Most of this information comes to me in the form … Continue reading Kahn And The Donald
Former US Intelligence Chief Has A Funny Nose
Today is a day of oxymorons, dear worst-reader. We have US Intelligence and Too Dumb. Or it's a day of dumb rearing its true face and what we see is Kim Kardashian's left tit superimposed on the red, white and blue which is also superimposed on a xmas tree that has just exploded out of a sewer system … Continue reading Former US Intelligence Chief Has A Funny Nose

Science Fiction Saves The Middle East
Der Heimatlose: Heimatlosigkeit is das schöne Gefühl, in der Welt zu Hause zu sein. The Displaced: being displaced is the comforting feeling of being at home with the world. First. Dear worst-reader, I'm no book critic--even though I probably should be. I mean. I've read a thing or three about writers who never made it but ended up … Continue reading Science Fiction Saves The Middle East
