  • It’s Not Always Your Court To Pack

    Democrats are already offering up the idea that if Trump rushes through a replacement, Biden and a Democratic Congress will threaten to expand the Supreme Court with two more justices. Question: Do Democrats never consider that they won’t always be in charge? Whether it’s getting rid of the filibuster, or the Electoral College, or packing…

  • The Fine Line of Multiculturalism

    I once had to do a mulitcultural appreciation session at a Fortune 500 company that you would recognize. This nice lady said that we needed to appreciate how many cultures are very different from ours.

  • And this wonderful Tim Pawlenty could have been ours

    And this wonderful Tim Pawlenty could have been ours

    Tim Pawlenty’s statements regarding his loss on Tuesday are a great insight into how terrible a candidate he was. I already disliked him because he skipped the caucus and convention entirely.  Why did he do that? Because it would have been humiliating to lose there. He had a lot of powerful money men behind him but…

  • She’s a private citizen and not in office

    She’s a private citizen and not in office

    It bugs me that Hillary keeps going on about the election and American politics while speaking overseas, but I remind myself that she’s a private citizen and not in office and thus free to say what she likes. And I think of three things: Ms. Clinton cannot get over her gender and thinks opposition to…

  • Black Lightning crashes Superman’s Funeral

    SNL did this skit back when Superman died fighting Doomsday I interviewed Black Lightning’s creator about 15 years ago and he said that he’d kiss Sinbad for the job he did on this one.

  • Delivering a Severe Beating to Straw Men Everywhere

    I don’t know the source, but this appears on a classroom wall: Let’s take these 1 by 1… Dear Black Students: In this classroom, your life matters. (But only in the classroom, apparently. Huh. I would have said it matters everywhere.) Dear Muslim Students: You are not terrorists. (That is, unless this unknown wall is…

  • Hollywooooood On Strike!

    So celebrities are trying to get a huge strike going, which will last until Trump steps down. Really. So, let me understand the “threat” here: We won’t see Rosie O’Donnell, Ed Asner, or any of the other committed liberals who join the strike on our screens until the strike ends. Republicans like Michael Bay will…

  • My First Time with Buffy

    I’ve just started watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer, a 19-year-old show I never saw before. I’m 8 episodes in and it’s already getting annoying how there is no accumulated history in that Smallville/Murder, She Wrote/X-Files way. The death toll for this small school is already catastrophic, the principal has been eaten, one girl had her…

  • Superman’s Debut and Real-World Deaths

    A joke on “Archer” made me aware of the death of Michael Findlay.  A sexploitation film director of the 1960s and 70s, he was slashed to death by a helicopter on top of a New York City skyscraper.  While boarding passengers and preparing to take off, with the blades spinning, the accident caused the helicopter…

  • Pardon our pixels!

    Yes, I know.  We’re back to the default theme.  But hey, at least the site is back up! Back in August, I was informed that there was an infection of some of the WordPress files in ALL of my blogs (including some that are effectively invisible!), and if I didn’t purge the infected files my entire…
