It is now 5:35 a.m. and I should be sleeping. Did you ever wake up in bed and a thought enters your mind and no matter how tired your body, your mind won’t let it go? I have been criticizing the current presidential administration for years in this column and on social media for its […]

or in this case...writing No pussy footing around. I am going to lay out just where I stand on...everything. I am a Lincoln Project Republican. I want less government and basically think President Trump is a horse’s ass. Actually along Lincoln Project Republicans and privately defecting other R’s in the privacy of the voting booth, […]

A bit of history, mixed with a bit of reality. Let us return to unsanitary conditions, no air conditioning and thorny questions debated to and fro at the 1787 Constitutional Convention. Toilet paper was nonexistent and to make things worse the Founding Fathers (FF) had been debating for months. Some wanted the position of the […]

The old cliché mill will really be activated for this column. In addition, this column will be longer than most, but for a reason. Please read... and think for a moment. I have a BS (Bachelor of Science, not Bull Shit) from Syracuse University. My minor was in history, including everything from Russian, American and […]

Unless you claim genetics from another planet (and there are some in the current administration I believe are from Mars), climate change is...real. Floods, increased severe hurricanes/tornadoes, fires from droughts and crop destruction is a worldwide reality. This, in turn, creates problems in migration, economics and political upheaval. Over the past decade or more, large […]

I was recovering from my fourth right foot reconstruction operation. A little over a month after the procedure, I was still wearing the customary surgical recovery boot and hobbling through life. Wife Patti is many things. She is, however, not an outdoors person. This means my gardens were weed laden and somewhat out of control. […]

If there is one thing western and perhaps central New Yorkers can be most hopeful about in this unprecedented year, it may be the Buffalo Bills. Is that, oddly enough, good for the team’s luck? Head coach, Sean McDermott, has put his team into the playoffs twice in three years with both a quarterback who […]

New York State, under the venerable (?) Governor Andrew Cuomo, has determined people have the right to know...about just about any police reports and backgrounds on a police officer, including their photos. You know, it’s the old..”Your Right To Know” thing. Luckily, a federal judge has halted the public release of police officer disciplinary records […]

Gee, I had no idea that this coronavirus thing would be such a big deal. Come to find out it has really thrown a wrench into...just about everything. I have to admit, before the rise of the “virus”, I lead a pretty stoic life style. Due to a series of medical set-backs, along with the […]

It becomes frustrating and a bit disgusting watching internet social sites and some of the re-posts and thoughts appearing just about every second. We blame Trump for anything, we blame Obama for everything, we blame the Democrats, the Republicans, Blacks, Whites, Police, Protesters, Rioters, Media for the current conditions. The truth is we are all […]
