AOC Ya Down The Road, Kid

To some of you, there’s no getting around one indisputable fact.  By certain standards, I’m old. Forget how I believe I tend to think, which is often through the lens of how someone else thinks.  Decades of training listening objectively to people in thousands of focus groups and disseminating reams of survey information from all … Read more

Face (Of) The (MAGA) Nation?

Face (Of) The (MAGA) Nation?

His name is Brian Glenn, and if you didn’t immediately recognize that name a couple of months ago, then consider yourself more grounded than you may have thought.  Lately, it seems he’s becoming a lot more visible and prominent, if for no other reason than mainstream media can’t stop introducing us to him. Glenn’s real … Read more

I Got Nothin’

I Got Nothin’

It’s already afternoon on the East Coast and here in balmy LA the minority of apartment dwellers in my neighborhood who actually venture outside on occasion are already gone off to work or run yet another errand.  I can tell because from where I sit I can see my street and I actually see vacancies.  … Read more

Tell Us Something We Don’t Already Know. FFS.

Judging by the number of angry e-moji faces I’ve been getting on some of the social media responses to the overwhelming amount of posts in my feed reacting to the sh-tshow in the Oval on Friday I’m apparently almost as popular with some folks compelled to express their sadness about being an American as the … Read more

And That’s The Way It Was

Time once was when the news of a network news anchor stepping down from their post was a really big deal.  I still recall to this day when Walter Cronkite stepped down from his perch as the paternal face of the CBS EVENING NEWS and turned the reins over to Dan Rather.  It was such … Read more

A Questionable NYC Mayor?  Like This Is News?

A Questionable NYC Mayor? Like This Is News?

So if I’m to believe the screaming headlines both local and national that dominated my news feeds yesterday today’s gonna be a pretty monumental day in the history of my home city and state.  No less than four NEW YORK POST reporters–pretty impressive considering the overall size of its staff–contributed to this breaking news story … Read more

At Least Two Of Y’All Are Paying Attention

At Least Two Of Y’All Are Paying Attention

I’m genuinely concerned about several friends of mine who are apparently becoming increasingly unhinged about whatever executive order or antic eminates from The White House.  Some have taken to keeping an ongoing tally of the actions, reactions and overreactions that have once again become the fodder for social media engagement and distraction, perhaps not fully … Read more

Fealty Bites

Do forgive me if I appear to be a tad less patient than usual, which I acknowledge is a diminished bar in comparison to many.  I’m in the middle of an extended work schedule at a more remote location where my commute time has been doubled and it results in about a 14-hour day with … Read more
