Dancing with the stars for guys

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy. The NFL draft. It’s Dancing with the Stars for Men. 7 rounds. 3 days. 253 picks. It’s a marathon and a sprint! To some it is salvation. To others it is a televised yawn! To some it is a sports vacation. To others it is nonsensical blather […]

Korean Cave People

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ North Korea. The evil empire. The most dangerous, most unsettling place on the planet.

5 speed Dance

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ Watching your son drive through a red light. OK, maybe it was yellow turning to red. Benjamin Moore calls that traffic moment I witnessed: Tangerine Fusion #803. I call it, “Hey boy, I’m gonna whip that ass!” It’s a Saturday Night and I’m returning home. I’m […]

Huffing Man

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ The Huffing Man. So addicted. So stupid. So sad. So lost in his own dysfunctional spiral of despair. Huffing man is body lice washed off a vagrant swirling around a shower drain in a bacteria laden hell. Huffing man is dying by a thousand cuts. He […]
