Tribes Starting to Fracture on Survivor

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya………. This past Thursday’s episode of Survivor was pretty good. They had a good reward/immunity challenge on the surface, but in the end, it wasn’t much of a challenge. And the tribes are really starting to identify the people they don’t exactly like within their own ranks. The show started with JT offering […]

Asshole of the Month February 2010

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya…….. Being a short month as it is, and with me usually taking weekends off, there was only a tad over three weeks for this month’s Asshole of the Month to present theirself. And I found myself a little short on candidates to be honest. In the end, it came down to […]

Just some observations in this crazy world

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya……….. Thought it was time to take a quick look at the world around me lately and tell you what I see. First off, the hard chargin’ band  West 34  is ready to jam out again this Saturday night at Rolling Lanes (bar) bowling alley in Countryside. If you missed them at […]

A few of the old man’s favorite things

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya……… I’ve been back from Nevada for a week now and it’s been almost two weeks since I lost my dad. I have to say that I’ve been totally floored by the number of friends that have reached out, called, sent notes and messages. A few years ago, I was basically underground […]

My Dirty Dozen Prophecies Revisited

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya………… Well, it’s been another 7 or 8 weeks since I last reviewed my Dirty Dozen prophecies that I made on 11/5/09. I last checked on them 12/23/09 and a couple had already come true. And I know that another one came awfully close since then—but failed—so I thought perhaps I’d take […]

I’ll Give Ya A Hero

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya……… As I see a couple of the biggest back-patting pageants on full display lately, it reminds me of how much we over-glorify those that don’t deserve it. People who have no business being celebrated in the overblown manner in which these shows do it. They are not deities. A good deal […]

Survivor All Stars Opens With a Bang !

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya……… I had to take a short hiatus the last 8-10 days as I attended to some family business out in Nevada. Unfortunately, my father passed away on Super Bowl Sunday. He was a great man and a great father and I’ll be sharing some memories of him in the coming days […]

If you don’t have a brother, get yourself one

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya………. I’ve extolled the virtues of family on some of my posts here a few times. My dad is battling some ill health right now and the whole family’s thoughts are with him constantly. My mom is the rock of the family. The epitome of a classic mom. Marian Cunningham from Happy […]

Leaving your mark on the world

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya……… I’ve had some exposure recently to a few situations and conversations about a topic most people probably wouldn’t connect with being something I really believe in. I’m talking about being an organ donor. I really don’t exactly know why I feel rather strongly about it. I really don’t. There’s two reasons that might be […]

What do we really know ?

Dude, I’m tellin’ ya………. As you watch the endless parade of doomsday shows that they air on the History Channel, some of them really get you thinking that we could be in trouble. And others just seem pretty dismissable. At least compared to the ones that sprinkle a little science in ’em. Seems like just […]
