The Worst Airplane Crash I ever covered

you know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ A twin prop airplane crash in Nashville. 4 people are dead. Body parts are severed, scattered, lost in the nearby woods. There is fire and spilled aviation fuel. I will call it controlled chaos. Controlled in that rescue crews are everywhere and the scene is under […]

The Twilight Zone County

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ Killing your wife and then digging her up each night to tell her your sorry. I’m in Hickman County, Tennessee. Honestly, I try not to come here if I can help it. It’s an hour or so outside of Nashville, but it’s more like 50 years […]

Little Rat Bastard

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ Punxsutawney Phil. He is a rat bastard. He is a rodent with a bad attitude, a hairy enema with a track record for making me unhappy. Punxsutawney Phil is a bad pill, a sour puss, a Punxsutawney punk. Why? Because he is so damned negative. He […]

Death’s Evil Stench

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ 9 people dying in one house fire. 9 people don’t usually die in 9 house fires. 50 people don’t normally die in 9 house fires. Typically ovens burn and couches burn and cigarettes burn and smoke detectors melt. Death in a house fire is not as […]

superbowl media day

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ Super Bowl Media Day Imagine if you will, every reporter with a question, every putz with a microphone, every scribe with an unspoken thought. Now imagine bad suits, and terrible hair cuts and people looking for swag. Now imagine all of this corpulent humanity crammed inside […]

Mr. Coffee

you know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy. That morning cup of coffee. Getting out of bed is hard enough. That first step on the floor, the shift of weight to both feet, that momentary equilibrium differential, it is disorienting. Will I fall, is there something to hold on to? My eyes are open, but there […]

Bieber Arrested! Unbeliebable!

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ Bieber Busted. Well here we go again. Haven’t I seen this movie before? Can you say James Dean? Too fast  to live. Too young to Die. Can you say Lief Garrett? obscure Tiger Beat reference. Can you say Jim Morrison? Come on baby light my fire. […]

Super-Cold Sunday

You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ Super-Cold Sunday. The Super Bowl is supposed to be on Sunday. Sunday = Super Bowl. Super Bowl = Sunday. No offense  to the Easter Bunny or Jesus or Mother’s day. You’ve never heard it called Easter Bunny Sunday have you? Truth! To play the Super Bowl […]

lost keys

From the Life’s crazy Classic collection. You know what’s crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy.™ Losing your keys. It launches a Lost Psychosis that is hard to explain. And this feeling is triggered the moment you realize that certain something is missing. For me it starts about 10pm Saturday night. That’s about the time a buddy drops me […]

Birth Order and the Middle Child

You know what’s Crazy? I’ll tell you what’s crazy™ The Middle child. Loud like a subway train. Demanding like a jail house warden. Defiant like a punk rock band. Independent like a fourth of July fire cracker. Aggressive like a blitzing linebacker. The middle child. Why? Because if you don’t carry a shank and bust […]
