SUP3R BOWL XV
It wasn’t the same. Once again, the Rona has done a ruination on a highly anticipated event for all mankind. Yes, it was uplifting. Yes, it was great that all the first line workers were honored. Yes, the pre-game singing was awesome. (Don’t ask me about The Weekend’s half-time show; no idea what was going on with that.) Yes, the new Progressive Un-Parent commercial was hilarious. (I laugh…

FREE SPEECH
I’m a fan of free speech. It lets me put stupid stuff like this moronic discourse on the internet for all the world to (not) read, and to look at Bernie mittens memes all day instead of cleaning the kitchen. Feel The Bern Recently, thanks to the riot/insurrection/protest/siege of the Capitol, I have seen way too much information on free speech and/or the lack thereof. Since the debate has…

SSI - A PSA
SSI – A PSA
As election day draws near, I see more and more Trump 2020 hats/shirts/bumper stickers/flags/etc. Living in one of the poorest states in America (#4) and knowing WV benefits more than most (again, #4) from federal funding, I could not figure out how so many people dependent on social services plan to vote for someone who wants such things ended.
So, I started asking questions. What I learned…

MASKERS FOR JESUS
(or Anti Maskers Part 2)
I thought it only fair I address the religious opposition to masking having previously discussed the political side. So here goes…
I don’t know what the religious argument is for not wearing a mask. I considered googling it but why would I bother? I’m guessing it has something to do with the health of unborn babies and the masks being made by the demonic…

ANTI MASKERS
Pop quiz for anti maskers:
Do you own a car? (If the answer is no, stand down for future posts. You’ve got bigger fish to fry than not wearing a mask.)
Does your car have a license plate?
Do you have a drivers license?
Is your car insured?
Is your car registered?
Do you drive the speed limit?
Does your car have brake lights?
Do you use your car headlights when driving at night?
Does your car have…

CORONAVIRUS
So…. We’re all goners. Or it’s nothing to get worked up about. Depends on who you ask.
As we are a high risk household, husband (asthma), Ralphie (generally weak and frail), and I (elderly) are sheltering in place.  We will be here until the threat of infection is over or we run out of chips and dip, whichever comes first. Because if the virus takes me, my last meal will not be kale.
Shelter…

WHY CANCER IS MY THING
WHY CANCER IS MYÂ THING
Breast cancer stole my aunt. Slowly but surely, piece by piece, we watched her lose her fight to this insidious disease. She was the aunt who instilled in me a love of travel, then helped me move nine billion times during my nomadic 20s; the aunt who ensured my parents always visited me for my birthday; the aunt who, like I, knew my mother wasn’t alwaysright, but it was just easier to let her…

RTF
The guy in the truck with the This is America.  Speak English bumper sticker has obviously never been off the resort in Cancun and caught a wave of Montezuma’s revenge. Gonna be sad times for the bigot when he gets to the pearly gates and finds out that Jesus is Puerto Rican and everybody inside speaks Spanish.

CHRISTMAS
What I hate:
Christmas trees beside Halloween candy at Sam’s Club in mid-October;
“It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year” blasting at volume 20 in every store I enter;
Fruitcake. Â (How can two things as delightful as liquor and cake go so horribly wrong when combined?);
Family guilt for not participating in the festivities;
Salvation Army guilt for not having any low bills to put in the bucket…

SETTING THE BAR
It’s such a small thing. Minute, actually. Simple to do, and it takes no time at all. Two seconds, five max. So why do few people do it?
This is what I began to wonder one day as I stood in the check-out line at Walmart and watched the shoppers in front of me as they unloaded all their items onto the conveyor belt and then, more often than not, failed to set down the divider bar for the next…

MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!
MAKE AMERICA GREATÂ AGAIN!!!
So, Donald Trump is our new president, and he’s going to make America great again.  I know a lot of people are upset, but I believe it may be simply because they misunderstand how great (pun intended) the changes involved in this endeavor will be. For example: I, personally, am especially looking forward to Americans being able to drink and drive again. Let’s face it, getting pulled over by a…

 Young people who get up early on a Saturday to walk, volunteer, or just cheer us on.
 Fighters
 On October 8, 2016, we walked with those who could and for those who could not.  We walked because we have all been touched by breast cancer in some way.  Mostly, we walked to raise money to find a cure, in hopes that someday the labels will be blank and there will be no…

SOMETIMES JESUS ISN'T ENOUGH
SOMETIMES JESUS ISN’T ENOUGH
Just got home from Wal-Mart.  Found myself standing in the 20 Items Or Less checkout line behind a woman with obviously more than 20 items.  When she turned towards me, I noticed her t-shirt read:  I Can Do Anything With Jesus Christ As My Lord and Savior.  Took everything in me not to scream,  “EXCEPT COUNT.”
