Let me say this about that. Human beings are a funny lot. We seem to think we understand the world we live in quite clearly. However, as I have aged, I am beginning to see that I don’t ‘really’ understand a helluva lot. Allow me to illustrate. How do you make a question mark in Chinese? […]
Let me say this about that. Just let me get this out. I am sick to death of turning on the TV and instantly seeing Barack Obama blathering on about some new miracle he is going to perform for the American people. This guy spends more time on television than the ‘OxyClean’ pitchman or that […]
Let me say this about that. Like most Americans I have been watching the “Great Monkey Grab-Ass Show” performed by our nation’s leaders in Washington, as they negotiate a settlement to the current debt/budget crisis. To give you guys a summary of what has been happening (just in case you actually have a life and […]
Let me say this about that. If we were to conduct an on-line poll to find the goofiest state in the union, Florida would win hands down. Not even the residents of California can compete with the daffy, dippy, ditzy, dopey citizens of the Sunshine State when it comes to irrational behavior. Is there any doubt […]
Let me say this about that. A guy walked into a doctor’s office and complained to the nurse about severe headaches. The nurse directed the guy to an exam room and told him to wait for the doctor. A few minutes later the doctor walked in and asked the guy what was his problem. The […]
Let me say this about that. Am I alone here, or does anyone else remember when common sense ruled our decision making? Is there anyone else out there that belongs to the tribe who believes rational thought, logic and reason are required to guide us through life? Are facts irrelevant in today’s world? Have intelligence, lucidity, […]
Let me say this about that. It is no secret that ‘government’, in any of it’s many forms, is the most inefficient mechanism ever devised by man. Find something that needs to be done and the government will find a way to do it that will require twice the number of people. Federal government, state government, […]
Let me say this about that. Omar, a good friend of mine came by last week to borrow a set of tools. When he walked into my house, he asked why I was wearing different colored socks. I told him that it kept the purple dragons away. Omar: “Shambo, you been smoking peyote again? ……. wearing different colored […]
Let me say this about that. I was in Key West recently because I had been called for jury duty in Federal Court. Engineers usually are not popular choices as potential jurors because we have a tendency to employ a tool unknown in the legal profession – ‘Logic’. Logic is like ‘Kryptonite’ to a lawyer. Their view […]
Let me say this about that. I think many (if not most) Americans have pretty much had-it with our current political system. Whatever the Democrats and Republicans are doing in Washington sure as hell is not about helping me. My view is that if the entire Congress would just go home and find a job mowing […]
