Maybe you heard about the accident in Africa. It made all the major news sites and public outcry came from all corners. People demanded, how could this happen? And the question was, what can be done to prevent it from happening again? If you heard, maybe you felt the outrage as well. The media reported…
Lack of Vision Stinks
I was in a stinky Irving bathroom the other day. And it’s not the first time, but it wasn’t always that way. I remember when Irving stations were renowned for their clean restroom., They had signs that advertised the fact that their bathrooms were clean and it wasn’t just an idle boast. And so for…
All I Want for Christmas
So did you get what you wanted for Christmas? Were all your wishes fulfilled? Were you ecstatic or disappointed on Monday morning? Maybe a little bit of both, I know how you feel, for the fifth year in a row I didn’t have a new BMW convertible in my driveway, actually for the fiftieth year…
Post Mayan Apocalypse
Well, we made it through another “End of the World”. At least, if you are reading this I presume that the Mayans were wrong. If you’re not reading this, then perhaps one of the many and varied doomsday scenarios actually happened on December 21st. On the other hand, maybe you’re not reading it because you…
Be careful little lips
Let me start by saying I’m not fan of radio prank calls. When they come on our local radio station I turn it off or find another station. I also don’t like TV shows like “America’s Funniest Videos”, probably for the same reason. I am really not into relishing the humiliation or pain of others…
Dead?
Just a month ago, Dale Porch, 46, collapsed and died on his front steps after returning home from his night shift job. The man’s death was certainly a tragedy at his age. However, what makes it more disturbing is that the Denver man’s body remained on his front steps for two days before anyone realized…
The Scrooges of Christmas
Bah, Humbug, Scrooge is like Bond, everyone has a favorite. For some there is no Scrooge like Alistair Sim, he was the actor who portrayed Scrooge in the clip we just saw. He also reprised the role in an Oscar winning short film in 1970. Maybe it is Albert Finney in the 1970 film simply…
Taking a Stand
Well, he’s certainly gotten people talking. This past week actor Angus T. Jones made headlines after his video condemnation of the television show that has made him a very wealthy teen-ager. Depending on your perspective he was either taking a courageous stand for his faith or he was joining in former co-star Charlie Sheen in…
They don’t have a prayer
So, Kim Kardashian had to apologize for comments that she made on Twitter. And you might be thinking, “ and this is worthy of a Penn?” Well yeah, because of what she had tweeted. It appears that Kardashian had the audacity to post “Praying for everyone in Israel,” and she followed that with, “Praying for…
Caught! He got caught. The fact that a high ranking government official was caught cheating on his wife really shouldn’t be a newsworthy item. We’ve seen it happen with mayors, senators, governors and Presidents. That doesn’t make it right, it just makes it common. But this guy was supposed to be able to keep secrets. …
