Getting your hair cut on a boiling hot day. Makes you feel like a new man.

I'm still waiting on those killer bees from Mexico. I have about a thousand lantern flies on my front porch every morning. Half or more are dead. Not a pleasant sight. Thankful for the leave blower to give them a blast. These bad boys are tough, though. I give them full power and many...

The lantern fly. An alien like bug that is plaguing PA and several other states. It apparently comes from Asia. Creepy. The directive is to stomp them on sight.

The relentless media publicity of the recent NYC shooting. The lead story on every cable and newspaper outlet yesterday and today. it's hard to understand why certain crimes draw this level of attention and others do not. There must be dozens or hundreds of shootings in every major city in...

The stock market trending downward the day after a huge trade deal with Europe.

Hogan was a great showman, and he could raise the roof with a crowd. He did that right until the end. People would run through a brick wall after listening to Hogan's spiel. Was there some "acting" involved? Of course, but that doesn't diminish his talent and showmanship which were...

The Rams signed Stafford to a megadeal despite his age. He is already injured and unable to participate in camp with back soreness. Maybe they are just being overly cautious with an aging veteran, but I would never sign a player to a long-term deal in the NFL with the injuries and short...

You are complaining about people complaining?

The media intentionally conflating stories to promote a desired narrative. Russia tried to influence the 2016 election = Trump must have colluded with Russia. Now it's Trump was an acquaintance of Epstein (show a picture of them at some event) = Trump was engaged in a criminal enterprise with...

Some great songs. Like a lot of icons, however, I think he outlived his cultural relevance and became a bit of a caricature. Good for him, though. I'm sure he had a good time while it lasted.

It's strange that the family of MLK Jr. is complaining about the release of files relating to his assassination. For years they have claimed that there was a conspiracy to kill him. You might think that they would want information released.

They would no doubt blame that on Trump.

"Hitler's Final Fortress - Breslau 1945" by Richard Hargreaves. A very well-written account of the brutal last months of the war. It doesn't just focus on the final battle but the preamble including the disastrous civilian evacuations. Hargreaves also has a new book "Opening the Gates of...

The Texas officials who reported hundreds missing after the flood are now saying only three people are missing. The media went nuts at the time claiming that this meant the death toll would be much higher. Any person with a functioning brain, however, could have told them that there were not...

The Dodgers have now lost 10 of the last 12 games including six in a row to the Brewers. Still in first place, though.

Colbert turned a comedy show into a political propaganda program. He is either completely unhinged on the topic of Trump or exploiting those that are. Just the sight of him makes me cringe. To now complain that he was fired due to politics after choosing to become a political commentator in...

The original "The Blob" with a young Steve McQueen. All the classic 50s sci fi elements. Teenagers, doubting adults, a literal blob from outer space. It is "The Thing" meets "Rebel without a Cause."

The disparity in cable news coverage is hilarious. On CNN, they are all about Epstein and the Texas floods viewing these as negative to Trump. On Fox, there is endless ICE/immigration raid and trans sports coverage. No mention of Epstein. Both outlets are propaganda.

ESPN's coverage of the home run derby. Three plus hours. Thankfully I only watched about five minutes. Here's a tip for ESPN. If you are covering a HR contest, maybe try to show the HRs instead of the players standing in dugout or families. Awful.
