As a rule I don’t spent very much time watching television sports. However, I will make an exception to the rule when big events such as the Olympics or Super bowl come on. This time I decided to make a project out of it and write down a list of things I felt were off…

Circle the wagons! I have had random thoughts rushing in from everywhere and I figured now would be as good a time to share them as any… MORE MONEY THAN BRAINS… Here are a few of pet peeves I have about driving: The first one is the person who pulls out in front of me…

It was raining when they pulled through the gates of Lackland Air Force Base. I was feeling nervous because I was not certain to expect during basic training. The sign over the guard station read, ‘Gateway to the Air Force,’ and I thought, “That’s pretty catchy.” During the flight from California the group had been…

The glass doors to the VA’s emergency room shushed open as he hobbled in from the parking lot where he had left his truck. “Thank goodness,” I said to myself as I sat down knowing that sooner or later a doctor would be able to check out my ailing back. The trouble began early that…

The boy in the orange and lime green shirt lifted the hammer and struck the water worn stone in front of him. It sounded dulled when the hammerhead struck — dull and uneven. Approaching the boy, he looked at me and my Sheriff’s uniform and immediately stood up. He held both of his hands behind…

A new year has begun and it hardly seems like the old one got started. I feel like I am still working on projects I initiated in the year 2000. Yet I look around me and I know it’s not true. It’s just a feeling. Perhaps it is something that comes from age and the…

I had come in early to the station so I could complete my production assignment prior to my shift. “What’s the matter?” my co-worker asked. He was standing next…

On the surface, “Journalism is Literature in a Hurry,” sounds like a wonderfully, poetic statement. However, after awhile of studying this phrase, a person begins to see the awful truth. Journalism used to be the profession of gathering and reporting NEWS. It was unbiased and straightforward. This is no longer the case. Now, society is…

This is sickening. It is beyond me why the UK newspaper The Guardian needed to publish this as it is nothing but lies and propaganda. Worse, they left it as a stand-alone piece and did not refute a single line. This is nothing more than an antisemitic rant and should receive no international or national…

In radio it is often heard said from the Program Director to the On-Air Personality, “Keep it Simple, Stupid.” For me, that saying always bugged the crap out of me, so I changed it to “Keep It Short (and) Simple.” No insults needed. That’s what I intend to do today. I realize that there are…
