Final Posting...Ever!!!

The way the world is going I just can't handle writing about it any longer. I am trading my laptop, apartment, clothes and worldly possessions for a monastery in an ashram in the Mexican Chihuahuan desert wearing nothing more than a serape and a pair of huaraches eating avocados and refried beans and drinking Dos Equis, Modelo or an occasional Corona. (You just don't drink the water when in Mexico.) So, this is goodbye, my friends.

Goodbye!

Oh, I'm not letting you suckers off that easy. I'm going to be around for a very long, long time. Unless the Corona gets me. And I mean too many cervezas. Then I'll just sober up and write on.

This was a little poke at you for now. I'll give you something to chomp on a little later. Have a happy and wonderful April Fool's Day quarantined, sequestered, self-imprisoned or whatever you want to call it. TTFN!

How The New Mexican Government And Prison System Failed Its People

Anyone who knows me knows I like mystery and crime stories, especially true crime. So, I am a huge fan and viewer of the Investigation Discovery network. I view many programs and have my favorites. One show I recently stumbled upon was "Surviving Evil" hosted by the stunning actress, Charisma Carpenter , who herself a crime survivor. She and two friends suffered at the hands of a violent serial rapist and police officer Henry Hubbard, Jr. on San Diego's Torrey Pines State Beach in 1991. I don't want to go on about her, her surviving her attack or even the ID program, which airs Thursdays at 9 pm and re-airs throughout the week and is available On Demand. Well, actually, I do want to speak about one episode from the current season (the 3rd season), but not the show as much as how the law failed to truly punish the perpetrator of this crime. The show titled "Escaping The Arroyo" interviews the one surviving victim and tells the horrific story about two whi...

Toyotas

I had mentioned something about this in my post, Hate , but would like to embellish. I despise Toyotas. No, I hate Toyotas. I should clarify. I don't hate the vehicle. I'm presume that it's a well built commodity that everybody seems to own or want to own. And I'm sure it's more than just the very attractive spokesperson, Jan (Laurel Coppock), in the TV commercials. According to Statista , in 2019, Ford and then Toyota were the most purchased automobile brands in the United States. Laurel Coppock (Jan from Toyota) I'd like to state (without evidence); 1 out of 5 drivers really suck at driving. When I say suck, I mean: They cut off other cars while lane changing, They don't use turn signals, They drive past dusk with headlights off, They speed, They tailgate, They run through red traffic lights and stop signs, They are reckless and erratic, They crash (sometimes into each other, but mostly into other makes and models), They disrupt my life...

ALL Reality TV Sucks

Hello, my friends. That's probably the nicest thing you'll read here in this blog today. Let's start with this post's title. You may agree with me. You may strongly disagree with me. I don't care either way. I have to stand up and say something. What the "Frank" is going on with the minds of the American public? I'm for entertainment. I enjoy the relaxation (most of the times) of television viewing. Lately, I'm finding less to watch. Is it my age? Maybe. Have my tastes change? Not really. Then why is there a lack of programs suitable for my viewing pleasure? Ahhh, there's the rub, Hamlet. Reality TV. It seems you can't switch to a station that doesn't have their version of reality TV. TruTV has a bevy of World's Worse this and that. Not really reality TV and most of the times it is entertaining, but it illustrates and highlights the assholery (My word. Copyright. Copyright. Copyright. Don't try to steal it.) of the peo...
