I love Audible. All those bitching about Jeff Bezos and some of his questionable employment practices (that’s you, Bernie Sanders) really do not understand how awesome capitalism is. I can not read a book and listen to another. I am getting smarter by the second. Those who are getting...

A Very Dark Path We Are Walking Now
I know, last week, that I wrote about the whole Brett Kavanaugh debacle and probably wrote in a very angry tone. Well, I am angrier today than I was last week. This chaos is very dangerous for our country. It is leading us down a very dark path. I...

Human Filth vs. Cowards = Nothing Gets Done
So I have been waiting for Bret Kavanaugh to get confirmed for the Supreme Court. Of course, the Democrats think this is a bad idea because Kavanaugh is a textualist (one who rules based off the exact wording of the Constitution). So, of course, the Democrats have released some...

Ridiculous Stories of the Week: The Dracula Diet
zHere are my weird stories of the week. I really don’t have much to say for an introduction. This crap is just weird. Let’s cut the B.S. and get to it. Plastic Surgery Has Never Sounded So Good I listen to a podcast called “True Crime Guys.” These guys...

Where Was I That Fateful Day
I was up a 6:30 in the morning. Just a typical day. I had to teach a class in Oxnard, California. Oxnard in in the middle of Ventura county and it would take my thirty minutes to get there. I liked to get to class early so I could...

Ridiculous Stories of the Week: Got Mylk?
I swear, I never seem to be able to go through a day before I find the really dumb stories of the week. As a matter of fact, I should point you to some of my resources for dumb stories but then I might take you away from my...

Book Review: Breath, Eyes, Memory
My quest to get through Amazon’s must-read books continues. And another one is in the books. The 1994 book, Breath, Eyes, Memory, by Edwidge Danticat is number 15 on Amazon’s lists. I had a real tough time with Bel Canto so I am hoping this one is a lot better. It...

Ridiculous Stories of the Week: Dragons and Orcs and Goblins…Oh, My!
Here we go again: the dumb stories of the week. And we had a couple of winners on Tuesday. I probably would have had them on Monday, but I took the day off and there isn’t much Twitter on days I’m off. I have better things to do. There...

Movie Review: Room
Josie and I are fighting. I can’t say why but its pretty serious. So I’m alone tonight (probably will be for a while). I have several movies on Netflix, which I planned to watch with her, but we never got around to watching them. Well, her loss. I am...

Update: What Do I Miss the Most?
Though I have not posted much about my son in the last couple of months, I have been struggling. I am running into that same confusion and sadness that I had in the first couple of months since his death. I am having nightmares and trouble sleeping. I am...
