Billion Dollar Power Ball

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ The Powerball Jackpot. “all it takes is one.” A ticket in your pocket is probably as worthless as the paper it is printed on, but as long as you have it, you have something. You have hope. You have a dream. You have a rainbow with […]

VACATION DAZE

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ The 1st day back from work. I’m driving down the seedy boulevard toward my office. It’s cold and gray. The wind is howling and there is a spitting anger in the sky. I flick my windshield wipers, watching as they drag across the semi-wet glass. There’s […]

The Hateful 8

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ The Hateful 8 Quentin Tarantino once again reminds me that he is Self Indulgent. He writes a film, directs a film, produces a film the way he wants it, despite what is right or wrong. If it is long, he doesn’t care. If it is boring […]

How to Shake a man’s hand

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ How to shake a man’s hand. The good old fashioned, look a man in the eye, and shake-his-hand handshake is falling out of favor in America. You know why? because people are afraid. Afraid of germs, afraid of touching other people. With Swine Flu as prevalent […]

I look in the mirror

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ Birthdays. As I embark around the sun for my 53rd time, I am forced to reflect on the passage of time and submit to the hour glass of existence. Rich or poor, black or white, good or bad, we all have one thing in common; Time. It […]

Monkey with an AK 47

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy.™ A monkey with an AK – 47. It sounds like a punch line to a joke. Like how many chimps does it take to screw in a light bulb in a thatched hut? One! If he’s toting a fully automatic weapon with a full banana clip. My […]

Viagra

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ Viagra commercials. Enough already. It’s Christmas night. TV’s are on all over America. Children are playing with toys. Aunts and Uncles are sitting in living rooms discussing politics. Grandma is adjusting her teeth. Grandpa is playing pocket pool. America is watching the Cleveland Cavs versus the Golden State Warriors. […]

Pirates and rum

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy.™A pirate festival called Gasparilla. I wrote this story a while ago. My friend was asking if I wanted to go back and it made me think, Heck Yeah. It’s Mardis Gras on a pirate ship. It’s wenches loaded on rum. It’s cut-throats gargling with sea water mixed […]

Star Wars 4

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ Star Wars 4. It’s called the Force Awakens? But to me, it’s the 4th movie. I know what you are saying, it’s the 7th film. That’s true, but its story line sequentially follows the 1st 3 films and to me, the 1st 3 films, are the […]

Christmas Quagmire

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ Shopping during the holidays. It’s a claustrophobic wrestling match with sweaty strangers. It’s toxic like brushing your teeth with asbestos flavored toothpaste. It’s a raw nerve, exposed to a garbage can percussion band. As I walked up the stairs at the local mall, side stepping tweens […]
