Newt
For 20+ years, I’ve tried to figure out where I’d seen Newt before. Then I saw this ad about Hollywood’s evil toy doll, Chucky. I don’t ordinarily comment on a person’s looks, but I think Newt may be Chucky. I mean, when was the last time you saw them together?
Being silly today, but sometimes that’s fun. Beats reading about the Solicitor General doing pratfalls before the Supreme Court.
Chucky
Not that it’s an earth-shaking announcement or anything, but I’ve decided to dedicate all my available hours in the rest of the month and February to meeting a big editorial deadline.
My silence does not connote agreement or disagreement with any of the world’s madness that’s sure to transpire! My best advice: keep your heads about you and hold onto hope.
I’ll be back in March. Wish me luck, please, with the “Second Edit” of my much neglected manuscript
G’night and good luck …
Let’s not mince words. When Joe Paterno, Penn State’s “Great Man of Rectitude,” was informed that his “emeritus coach” butt-fucked an 11-year-old boy in the Penn State showers, he simply told the Athletic Director that the pedophile engaged in “inappropriate” and “disturbing” behavior (2002). And when the AD did nothing, Paterno–his moral obligation thus “satisfied”– sat on the information for 9 years, allowing the pedophile to roam loose. I … am … Angry! Tear down the whole sick Penn State football program and start over.
[NOTE: The first version of this story had the assistant coach continuing to work on Paterno's coaching staff. That was in error. But in 1999, after the assistant's earlier act of pedophilia in Paterno's locker room, "Joe Pa" simply told the pervert he would not be the next head coach and allowed him to enjoy "emeritus" status with an office full access to the locker room.]
Readers will notice that my blog has undergone a facelift. OK, maybe it’s not “sexier.” But it’s a little less pastoral, a bit more edgy. That seems to fit better with its content. (And hey, what is “edgy” if not these times!) If you have a mind to, tell me what you think.
After a hiatus of more than a year, I’ll be posting more often, while continuing my other writing projects. I hope you will enjoy the result here. If you do, please become a subscriber. You’ll get an email notice when I put up a new post. I won’t overload your inbox, promise!
With the corporate mass media concentrated more and more in conservative hands, we need more outlets for liberal and progressive thought. I hope to not disappoint. You’re are a part of this too! I welcome your contributions.
