When I was a little kid, I had two brothers and three sisters. One of us, I can’t remember which, had received as a gift one of those paddle thingies with the elastic band and a rubber ball attached. The life expectancy that toy wasn’t great, so the ball was
I recently saw/noticed the sign on the front of Joe Biden’s podium. The sign said, “BATTLE for the SOUL of the NATION”. It struck me odd that the Biden campaign would have the audacity to put the focus on the word “soul”. Whoever approved the use of that slogan should
I commented on a post a couple of weeks ago and told someone they were ignorant. She immediately took offense and said I was calling her a name. But I wasn’t. If I had said she was stupid, then she’d have been correct. But I didn’t. I said she was

There’s a car in a neighborhood not too far from here. Someone has written on the back window “Honk “4 Fuck Trump”. The car has been marked like that for months and the owner routinely drives it around. Here’s what it looks like: Imagine that you’re a parent with a
As there are two sides to every coin, there are two sides to every issue. Whatever the issue, it’s likely that someone will agree with it and someone will disagree. My wife and I were watching the news shortly after Biden announced Kamala Harris would be his running mate. There
I walk my dog every morning. I guess it would be more accurate to say that my dog walks me. Just about every morning, we pass a woman walking her small dog. That dog goes crazy when we walk by and creates this shrill, fingernails-on-the-chalkboard sound that makes my skin
