I’ll Take The Stealth Fighter. And The Ginsu Knives.

As I was watching the circus come to town in Washington D.C. these past few days, it occurred to me that given our current state of technology we should just do away with Congress all together. I think we could handle this budgeting thing better ourselves. I only...

You Think Congress Is Bad? Try a Pirate Meeting!

The current deadlock in Congress over the debt ceiling and just about everything else it seems, must appear to some people to be shear lunacy. After all, can’t a bunch of grown men get along, finding ways to move forward for the good of everyone rather than...

A Fine Example Of Getting A Gude Edumakation.

As a writer, I come across a lot of outrageous statements that are presented under the guise of fact. So yesterday, when I first saw this story, I refused to believe that anyone in this country could be so misinformed and misguided. But in light of the news today and...

You Can’t Vote The Real Rascals Out.

Ah, the election follies are just around the bend and the cast of characters just gets better all the time. But what truly amazes me is the hatred each side has for the other and how everyone takes sides, as if a change of a president or even an entire Congress will...

Presidential Asspirations.

I am always amazed when the circus comes to town. All the people who want to be president who have a snowball’s chance in hell of becoming our leader. Sometimes I think we should just elect the president the way they choose Miss America. Although the idea of...

Stickin’ It To The Arts.

I am one of the lucky people in this world who benefitted from an education that was rich in art, music, creativity and writing. I am also discovering that I am becoming a rarity in our world, due to the short-sighted pencil pushers out there who think sports and math...

Leave Me Alone Donald. I Have The Trump Card.

I knew the writing was on the wall as soon as CNN posted a copy of President Obama’s birth certificate. Within moments, the phone rang. “Hello, CommuniCreations, Robb speaking!” I answered in my somewhat professional manner. “This is Mr. Trump,...

The Past Is The Present, And We Appear To Be The Enemy.

I was watching the movie Good Night and Good Luck last night. And I couldn’t help but see how little things have changed over the years. If you don’t know the story, it was about the good old days of television when the medium was used to inform as well as...

Life After Debt

I was doing some writing for a client recently. Basically, I’m writing 570 100-word biographies for a quote site. It’s been an amazing project, mostly because I’ve gotten to learn about a lot of very accomplished people. One of them is John Maynard...

Frankly, I Prefer The Buffet

I had an ex once who didn’t eat fish. She said it was too cannibalistic, since she was a Pisces. She would only eat meat. Self-limiting I thought, especially when it really makes it pointless to order a Surf & Turf for a special occasion. She could only have...
