Time to Rein In the Super Rich
The question is how long can working stiffs, who make up perhaps most of the 99+% of us, tolerate the other, almost as potent virus called ‘The Super Rich’? Does anyone realize that these ‘less than 1/4 of one percent of us are mega millionaires? It used to be, like...
The Real ‘Sports of Kings’ … Not for Us Suckers!!
Borrowing from the moniker of horseracing as the ‘Sport of Kings’ this writer is going further into the sewer of media hype. I love sports and acknowledge that I am a fan of many sports, with even some teams as my favorites. Methinks that in the past few years I have...
Four! More! Years!
Nothing is certain but death. Taxes used to be, too, but recent legislation proved they’re not, if you have enough money. So, it can’t be said with total confidence that Joe Biden will be the Democrats’ nominee to scrum with Trump, but after the last massacre it’s...

DEMOCRATICIDE
Natural disasters come barreling out of nowhere, unforeseen. Before they occur, cataclysms and catastrophic events of the physical world–tidal wave, earthquake, wildfire, eruption–are inconceivable. They blindside us utterly. Human-caused calamities are quite...
Banana Amerika: The Fix Is In!!!
This writer has watched countless boxing matches over the years, and has seen how in many instances ' The Fix is in'. The powers that be want a certain prospect to move up the ranks, they ' Fix ' it. With boxing all you needed was two judges and maybe the referee, and...
South Carolina Primary: What Does It Mean?
What are the political ‘takeaways’ from yesterday’s South Carolina primary? In just few words: not many. None that change the fundamental dynamics that have in play throughout the primaries in general thus far to date. Biden bought himself some time, at the expense of...
Love is Lovelier the Third Time Around, Isn’t It?
sure as hell hope so. I’ve been going through a rough patch these last few years. My search for true love has been disastrous. I suppose this is not unusual, but for it to be concentrated in just a few years has made me quite desperate. I am thinking about embarking...
