But first let me address a circumstance I created. My last column took snarky to another level for a few folks. It also elevated my version of humor to others. In retrospect, I can see how both reactions occurred. I wrote that column in frustration. Not only for me, but also students; fellow citizens; folks […]
Did you get the blessing? I recall when I did. Napoleon Polis had just shuttered the state — because New York and California did and like all good, lacky liberals who want to be president do, he fell in line — the night before St. Patrick’s Day because he declared himself the only expert in […]
Which is just how we’ve handled and overcome the many novel coronaviruses of the past 30 years. And this doesn’t mean Covid-19 goes away — because we’re still fighting strains of the Spanish flu — but it does mean it’s damned well past time to handle Covid-19 like Americans throughout history have handled any invasion […]
Sorry folks, but that’s the only model I’m going to reference going forward. Because to our economy, it’s really the only model that matters. The hard truth is this country and its leaders are, once again, following the wrong models. I do a lot of research online, meaning I click on a lot of stories […]
Someone had to say it. Might as well be me. While it’s my nature to be contrary — few can argue both sides of a debate the way I can — this isn’t about being contrary or even politics. This is about freedom. And we’re losing it by the day in Colorado. As I write […]
Admit it. You have no clue whatsoever about the coronavirus. It’s the only logical conclusion I can come to after two plus months of information, misinformation, intentional lies and politics about this latest corona-type virus foisted upon the world by — yet AGAIN — China. As a matter of fact, the last part of my […]
If you recall the movie, it’s about a bunch of idiotic characters chasing after stolen money buried under a “W” somewhere along the California coast. I mistakenly identify that “W” with the Wai’alae Country Club signature golf hole, which has the W behind the green as one approaches and looks through the W into the […]
Once again the conscience of America is boiling over with opinions, insults and ad hominem. I have watched with delight, horror and shock at the funny memes, insults and trolling post after post on someone’s opinion post on Facebook about the Super Bowl halftime show. It all boils down to some people liked it, some […]
Unless you’ve been hiding in a fallout shelter since Jan. 8 — possibly a little before, although preselling is banned and I don’t want to make false accusations, but those Lions know who they are — there’s an event of which you’re likely aware. It’s Grand Junction Lions Club carnival and raffle ticket season. It’s […]
I bet you sang that, because I was. Although truth be told, I’m still singing the Andy Williams version because I enjoy the old days and wonderful memories they brought when things actually were wonderful this time of year. So you must be thinking: What’s the most dangerous time of year in Colorado? I could […]
