Today I offer no solutions, no revelations, no cures for the common cold: nay, today I offer only a mantra, which has served me well for many years. It might serve to soothe your soul, too, if you happen to be frustrated with the stupidity that surrounds you. This week’s video offers a mantra for ...

People have focused on the end of times since the beginning of times. Did you know that people were predicting the apocalypse thousands of years before JC walked the Earth? Yeah, they did. This week’s video is all about our obsession with Armageddon and the BIGGEST issue I have with that.

The good old days are a myth. You know what’s a good day? Today. It’s the only day you have. Now is good, now is real, now is your eternity people. Wake up and live it, revel in it, smell it, taste it, feel it. THIS is your good old day, and it’s brand-spanking new.

Americans: Choose Your Team!

Americans: Choose Your Team!

I’m told over and over again by our media and our politicians that there are just two teams in this country, and I had better choose. I just can’t do it. Both have good points, both have bad points, and neither can possibly encapsulate ANY one individual’s belief system. We are unique mortals with unique ...

This week, I visited the International Gift Fair at the Jacob Javits Center, where suppliers displayed their wares to potential retailers.

Nothing depresses me more during the holidays that the consumerism. Not the huge meals I don’t really want to eat, not the scrabbling of family members as they jockey to get what they think they want, not even the crap weather here in NYC: none of that is as bad as the consumerism. And in ...

Why Media Bias is OK

Why Media Bias is OK

December 16, 2011 9 Comments

All the media is biased. Right AND left, conservative AND liberal. And that’s OK. What’s not OK is how all the media pretend they are fair and balanced and neutral. Not only is that a lie, but it gives them the sneaky ability to declare their stories as the absolute truth. Since they purport to ...

Government offices are supposed to be filled with civil servants. But in today’s America, political positions are filled only with corporate butt-boys. Major campaign finance reform is needed, else we should implement MY idea, presented in this video for your consideration.

The right yells at the left, the left yells at the right, and the people who are really responsible for the shit in this country all laugh their way to the bank. WAKE UP PEOPLE! All this finger pointing and right-versus-left nonsense is not getting us anywhere. We are all pissed at the system, so ...
