Matt Gaetz extorts diabetics. Film at 11.

The Republican “Troll Caucus” keeps things from getting done. These trolls are prone to grandstanding, deflecting, marginalizing, and just straight-up destroying America. And today, I’d like to focus my attention – reluctantly – to Rep. Matt Gaetz. You know, the real-life “Butthead” looking for a Beavis. The Congressman that prefers Venmo to PayPal when paying…

K-Chuck Radio: You mean they’re not related?

Rock and roll has several instances of groups who call themselves the _______ Sisters, or the ________ Brothers. And while some are actually related – i.e., the Pointer Sisters or the Everly Brothers – we do have some instances where the term “brothers” does not mean a familiar bond. I shall demonstrate. THE KNIGHT BROTHERSTemptation’s…

I don’t want to say goodbye. I hate goodbyes.

It was 2016. I was involved in a horrible breakup. One morning, everything was wonderful, and later that day it was completely done. Over. No warning. And at my lowest possible time in my life … a new entity came into my world. And we were together for six years. Six amazing years. So many…

The last ride of the Rubber Duck. Rest in peace, C.W. McCall.

Bill Fries passed away last Friday. The former mayor of Ouray, Colorado lived to the ripe old age of 93. Prior to his political career, he worked in advertising, and had a successful campaign for a Nebraska-based bread. I knew him, however, as C.W. McCall. And most people knew C.W. McCall as the person behind…

The NEBA Roast Beef – Mike’s Submarines Latch Hook Project, April 3 2022 progress

Normally at this point in time, I’d complain about running out of some esoteric color and having to work around it while another color shipment from Herrschner’s came through the mail. Well, this time the problem wasn’t my yarn. It was my hook. More specifically, the hook itself broke in two. The metal rod pulled…

Albany Patroons vs. London Lightning tonight … can’t I root for both teams??

I knew this day would arrive. It had to. Full disclosure. I’ve worked with the National Basketball League of Canada for the past ten years, working in statistics and player clearances. More full disclosure. I’ve worked with the Albany Patroons for many years, doing everything from game photos to PA announcing to broadcasting to post-game…

The Renee Richards / Juwanna Mann logical fallacy

I’m so sick of transphobes. Transphobes (or, to be more polite, TERFs), hate trans men and trans women, and use their hatred as part of this logical fallacy that girls can’t compete in school sports because boys take hormones to be girls and win all the girls’ sports. Give me a break. If you’re that…
