 I just spent the last 10 days in southern CA because if there is one thing I can’t get enough of its pretentiousness. No matter how worldly and self-indulgent I am at times (as in I can’t count that high) I have reconciled the fact that I am after all a sinner saved by grace.…

  I am shocked to say that slavery is still alive and well in America. The culprits, exactly who you would least suspect, the “alleged” animal rights activists. Animal rights activists always entertain me with their lack of consistency. I am not a big animal lover but I also believe they are not to be…

  I am writing this week’s column while sitting in a window seat of a CRJ 200 shuttle. Designed for shorter flights that save the airlines money on fuel and service a smaller volume of passengers. In other words it’s caca. As I survey my surroundings of this all too familiar traveling option that I…

Remember when good moral character was at least contrived and manufactured by our celebrities via their P.R. people? If you were an alcoholic for example you had the courtesy to unleash your uncontrollable rage at home where it only affected your kids, but your fans were left to believe in your screen image.   That…

    All I wanted to do was throw some trash away. I had a paper cup from coffee at the airport and decided when I was done with it the prudent thing to do was throw it away. Why Not? I’ve thrown stuff away all my life and it never was complicated before.  Here’s…

 So I’m sitting at home minding my own business ( who else’s business should I be minding while sitting at home?) when Beliefnet contacts me and asks me if I would care to blog for them. Normally I would think this was a scheme perpetrated by an editor who after a tequila binge thought it…
