@NRA My draft resignation letter has been in queue for months. It is now printed and I need to find a goddamned stamp in order to communicate with you in 2026.

I was hoping the incessant bootlicking would exit with LaPierre et al.

Same old cunts.

@billybinion You fucking cunt. What has happened to this fucking magazine?

One o'clock AM internet shopping binges are different at 59.

My three minute walk-and-talk about living near an explosives plant was condensed to an oddly croaky "I felt big boom".

Also, it may be time to emerge from my feral summer look.

@dannywallace I've watched this man teach logrolling to urban youths in a leisure center pool on Real World: Boston. I believe in him.

All these years later, I still remember many of the words to "Pigeons", "Elements", and "Brotherhood Week", and a rather convoluted tale of Reg, a bear attack, and revenge.

Every summer for over forty years, an eccentric faculty member/alum of my high school would take two students on his boat to explore the Georgian Bay in Ontario for a few months (it was a different time.) I was invited in 1982.

He would set up a reel-to-reel tape player and we would  listen to either the "Reg Tapes", an oral history of the area he had compiled in the 60s from an equally eccentric octogenarian, or Tom Lehrer albums.

If someone had offered Thomas Crooks a little remedial coaching his freshman year, the world would be a better place.

Most days go by without any acknowledgement of Kid Rock's existence. Today is different.

@dannywallace Don't worry. The owner of Bubba Gump Shrimp Company has been tapped for an ambassadorship. Can a global rollout of Eataly be far behind?

I am very comfortable with the Real World contestant and the drunk FOX news host leading the response to the crash. I'm certain that their report to the psychopathic Apprentice star will be accurate and free from political hyperbole.

@reazlepuff There is no evidence that Aesop did NOT lift

It must be discouraging when the racist you went all-in on turns out not to be racist enough for you

My old high school celebrated all their National Merit scholars this wek. Tennessee schools celebrated banning books.

The irony is not lost on me that this was done right before the opening of the Southern Festival of Books

@NC5PhilWilliams I suspect "wrong way to go" is Sexton-speak for "they left a trail".
