Will Donald Trump run for president again? Well, he has pretty much been telling people that the only thing that could keep him from a third run for the White House would be health problems. Since he’s morbidly obese and will be 78 years old in 2024, my guess is it’s less than a 50-50 …
In 71 years and nearly 10 months, I have lived in 10 different states from one ocean to another. Only once did I leave a state and then later return to live there again, and that was a state I left without having any memory of living there the first time. I was born in …
Osama bin Laden once said that the reason his jihad against Americans would succeed was that we were afraid to die and his people weren’t. That might have been overly simplistic.

So much for Million Moron March II. Saturday’s “Justice for J6” rally at the U.S. Capitol demanding freedom for the “political prisoners” from the pro-Trump attack on the Capitol this past January was never expected to be as big a deal as the original. For one thing, law enforcement was prepared this time. So was …

I had an odd question pop into my mind recently. What was the happiest day of my life that didn’t involve other people? So that rules out falling in love, wedding days, anything involving children or other family members. As trite or even corny as it might seem at first, the day I came up …
If there’s one thing certain in this life, it’s that every time another lunatic loser breaks loose and kills other Americans, the Amen Chorus of the gun nuts will be all over the media standing up for their rights. So a shooter (fill in name here) killed some (fill in number here) people in an …
