I know, I know, it’s another blog post featuring Lauren Boebert, the cocoa-nut from Colorado. Trust me. This woman is so dumb, she would stare for 30 minutes at a can of frozen orange juice because the label said “Concentrate.” Anyway … As you know, Rep. Boebert has this nasty habit of voting AGAINST anything…

In praise of Mic Tyson and the Montgomery Riverfront Brawl
Hopefully by now, you’ve seen the recent viral videos of a massive fight at a riverfront dock in Montgomery, Alabama. Here’s the Reader’s Digest explanation. A riverboat tried to dock, but couldn’t because a pontoon boat was blocking its way. A security guard asked the pontoon owners to move the boat. The pontoon owners responded…
Read More“Alexa, recap my Sunday.” “Okay.”
The past two days were lots of fun, and I could write three or four blog posts to cover all the information. But instead … I’ll lump everything into one blog post for today. Starting off with my new household tenant. I purchased an Alexa Echo Dot. Yeah, yeah, I’m sure all of you are…

Read MoreLauren Boebert’s feckless apology
Last week, Colorado representative and all-around Freedom Caucus troll Lauren Boebert showed her true, disgusting colors, when someone handed her a pin in commemoration of a child who died in the 2022 Robb Elementary School gun slaughter in Uvalde. Boebert took the pin, and dropped it into the nearest trash can she could find –…
Read MoreSAG-AFTRA and the WGA have been battling AI for 20 years now.
The other day, a Facebook friend posted a question about whether anybody should really care about the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes. I mean, as far as my friend was concerned, it was just millionaires arguing over millions, while our cable bills and streaming services increase their subscription fees. Well, that’s kind of a straw man…
Read MoreFor Lauren Boebert, GOP = Guns Over People
I am truly disgusted by Lauren Boebert, the Colorado representative to Congress. She’s a racist, she’s a bigot, she’s a homophobe, and she’s a gun zealot. And that was totally obvious yesterday. In all the disgusting ways possible. See, yesterday, some people handed Boebert a little cloisonné pin, with the hopes that Boebert would understand…

A while back, I was at the Helderberg Escarpment at Thatcher Park. For those who are not familiar, the Helderberg Escarpment is an overlook that gives a fantastic view of Albany and the surrounding counties. Heck, on a clear day you can even see Vermont’s White Mountains. There’s also a solitary tree that grows between…
Read MoreWhen the Sweet isn’t sweet and the Vogues aren’t in vogue.
Yesterday’s announcement of the “Alive at 5” summer concert series in Albany’s Corning Park caught my attention – especially the notice of July 13th’s “Classic Rock Night” featuring headliners The Sweet. You remember The Sweet, don’t you? All those big hits – “Fox on the Run,” “Ballroom Blitz,” “Love is Like Oxygen,” “Little Willy,” all…
