The GOP Rope-A-Dope
Even though this is a four man race, the crop of contenders for the Republican nomination boils down to what I expect will be a bloody brawl between Newton and Mittens. In the past, South Carolina has served as a tie breaker for the winner of the Iowa Caucus and the New [Read More]
Cleaning The Iron Lady
Tonight, after dining on a couple of six inch Subways, Wifey and I made our way to one of the swankier of the movie joints this town has to offer, and plopped ourselves down into the leather seated VIP theater to watch The Iron Lady. That’s right. TharpSter watched [Read More]
The Bain Of Our Existence
Item #1 – A few weeks ago, I saw a recently released (or leaked, I don’t know) trailer to the new Batman movie which will come out this summer. It’s called Dark Knight Rises, and it generally looks pretty cool. Of course the trailer looks cool. [Read More]
Answer Me This….
First of all, my first question goes out to anyone poised to vote FOR Obama in the 2012 presidential election. Plain, clear and simple. Give me substantive reason(s) as to why the man has earned your desire to dangle a chad for him. Don’t tell me you’re [Read More]
Requiem For A Piece Of Junk
For what it’s worth, I hated that thing. “Hate” is a strong word, but so is “floccinauccinihilipilification”, which pretty much describes to a “t” (and several other letters), what that thing meant to me. For five [Read More]
Tis The Season
*groan* Today, ladies and gentlemen, is the last day of my staycation. On a positive note, the debutantes and crackheads who represent Dallas in the NFL were sent home last night in a loss to the Giants. It’s a happy trade off. Short of calling criticizers of Herman [Read More]
Raisin’ Cain
Howdy y’all. I just want to drop a note to a select group of people who see it fit to be critical of Herman Cain. You know who you are. The whole premise of 999 doesn’t add up to you. He’s too blunt. He’s too direct. The ad of his campaign manager and his [Read More]
The Constitutional Convention
Suffice to say, I read the blogs of others. I know, that’s pretty shocking. As your favorite blogger on the worldwide web, it would only seem fitting that I view the aimless meandering of others around the blogosphere to be well below my station. Rest assured that I [Read More]
ABO Ain’t Enough
As we swim deeper and deeper into the 2012 election season, one specific TLA has entered the day to day vernacular. You do know what a TLA is, don’t you? That’s right. It’s a Three Letter Acronym. I’ll give you moment to muse over the whimsy of [Read More]
Happily & Voluntarily Soaked
I know the subject matter in which I’m about to weave my verbal brilliance is nothing new. Regardless, I find it necessary to write this piece because I’ve yet to see anyone do it. Ironically enough I’m about to quote a Bible verse. One of the things [Read More]
