Condensing Infinity
Man's view of God really hasn't changed much in the last 4,000 years. Even today, most people's conception of God resembles Michelangelo's famous depiction on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican City. There is God, often depicted as an gray haired, bearded old man, and there is man,...

Sliding Down the Razor Blade of Life
When I was a young lad, my life was one game after another; not figuratively, but literally. During the baseball season my friends, and brothers, and I, played baseball everyday. During football season, we played football, and during the winter we played hockey. It was a great childhood. When I got...

- Place Title Here -
This comes as no big surprise to many people but George W. Bush is a lame duck President. This is no surprise, because over 70% of Americans feel he was a pretty lame President. Personally, I never thought I would ever see a President as bad as Jimmy Carter, but, after living through eight long...

Santa Redneck Is Coming To Town
Christmas comes early each year to our normally quiet community here in Homestead, Florida. Santas come by the droves, not in sleighs, but in RVs, and campers, and pick-up trucks. They come here each year to watch the last NASCAR race of the year; the one that decides the NASCAR champion, The...

Its Hog Slopping Time!
Blood is in the water, sharks from miles around are coming to join in on the feeding frenzy. Corporate America has noticed how the American people spinelessly gave in to the bankers, and sent them a 750 billion dollar bailout. I am, of course talking about "The Big Three" auto makers; General...

I Said, You Said
Everyone is probably familiar with the phrase "he said, she said", in which a couple is fighting and neither can see anything from the other person's point of view. Each person is so wrapped up in their thoughts, and feelings, that it is impossible to see that each person is correct, and each person...

You're My Best Friend
This post is about my wife, her name is Rhea. A man is considered to be fortunate, if he has a handful of people he can consider close friends. In a world where everyone is so wrapped up in themselves, this statement is truer than ever. However, when a man finds someone as special as my wife, he is...

A Peek Inside
I am a caucasian, a white man. I can't help it, I was born that way; that's the way the European DNA runs. I have learned a long time ago to be color blind in matters of race. The only black and white I see, is the color of a person's heart. That, being said, I am extremely distressed with all the...

Don't Think Twice, That's Alright
There's an old saying, "If you don't use it, you lose it". If that's true, the average American brain must be in a state of atrophy. Most of us are seldom called upon to use our cerebral cortex anymore. Network TV shows, commercials, our schools, our jobs, etc. have all been "dumbed down" to the...

See You Later Alligator
I live in south Florida, no let me rephrase that, I live in south, south Florida. I live about 10 miles from the southern tip of Florida. In many ways this is paradise; warm sunny weather year round, lots of flora, and lots and fauna. We also have lots of alligators; and I do mean lots. They are...
