Happy Fathers Day or The War on Men

The war on women is a joke.  There is a bigger war on men and I am going to use Fathers Day as one of the examples.  People have to be blind, ignorant, or both if they cannot see how in almost every aspect of life men’s lives that they are valued less.   In the […]

24 Not 24

I am a fan of 24. 24 did very well because it appealed to a particular demographics with particular tastes. It is not that 24 will not do well now but it is no longer 24 if is not 24 hours long. Those who appreciated the second for second format are going to be disappointed […]

Best Two Minutes of the Year

No, I am not talking about anyone’s sex life. It is the running of the 140th Kentucky Derby. I am not encouraging gambling but it is a very exciting event when you have a stake in it. It only takes $2. The Triple Crown has been a long tradition in my family. My grandfather was […]

Automat Comeback

Anyone remember the original “fast-food?” They were called automats. The food was ready-made and waiting so you do not have to.

Pray for Ben Sauer

This is a break from the norm but it has become important. About 3 weeks ago I started communicating with Mindy Sauer about her son Ben. Ben has a tumor in his brain and she asked for thoughts and prayers, now about 20,000 people have responded. Ben was featured in the Buffalo News today, as […]

Golden Jubilee of Wings

Some fun information and scattered thoughts. Wings or Chicken Wings but not Buffalo Wings, buffalo, contrary to popular folklore do not have wings. I do not know anyone from Buffalo that calls them Buffalo Wings. 50 years. WOW! congratulations! There is little doubt in my mind that “The Anchor Bar” is the first restaurant that […]

Spike Lee Racist

As a kid I spent some summertime in Brooklyn visiting my Uncle and I do not remember where he lived being a “black neighborhood.” So I guess the blacks moved in, the whites moved out and now are moving back. I cannot imagine the media feeding frenzy that would have occurred if some white person […]
