I’ve been crystal clear that I’m anything but comfortable about the choices that are awaiting myself and my fellow Californians on the primary ballot that is now sitting on my nightstand awaiting my attention. I’ve already mused about the underwhelming and unfortunate situation that we find the gubernatorial race in, and I’m sorry to say … Read more
Let’s get one thing straight upfront: I’m as sick as you are of this whole Jimmy Kimmel and Disney mishagas–maybe more. My algorithms have apparently been trained to immediately show me yet another outraged reaction to something that either he or the farter-in-chief have been saying in their neverending battle of wits, one-sided though it … Read more
I was inclined to have a tad more interest in this week’s road trip for Chuck and Cammy given my lineage. As I’m not ashamed to overshare, my grandparents were London Eastenders who despite their decidely blue-collar roots always had four o’clock tea with Cadbury biscuits whenever I visited. And when I discovered the existence … Read more

There was once a time when I was actively in enough demand for my skill sets where companies I was interested in working for would gleefully describe their perks during our negotiations. During my pas-de-deux with Game Show Network the effusive HR consultant who championed my candidacy piad particular homage to the fact that they … Read more
I’m doing my best to try and avoid most of the news cycle of late, especially on days when the leader of the free world is omnipresent enough to the point where he’s literally getting in the way of escapist reality television. Honestly, I can’t stand the man as far I can’t throw him, and … Read more
A particularly aggressive Facebook friend who in my actual dealings with him is generally a decent person once again shifted into activist mode this week when he was compelled to invite everyone and anyone he remotely knew to join him at yet another “No Kings” rally. Tomorrow there will be the third such gathering of … Read more
