Ever mindful of our need to balance our carnivorous leanings, my cousin insists that we have a veggie when we sacrifice animals. Kindly observe the pot of okra and squash nestling amongst the lamb chops and flanken beef ribs. The meal was simple and simply delicious. For all you tabletop grillers out there, spend ~… Read more »

My Dad, In A Pig’s Eye
Father’s Day was always a big deal at my house. My mother made sure that no matter what else was happening in our sequestered corner of the planet, Dad got his proper due. We made handmade cards that said “I Love You, Dad”. We catered to him, joyously bringing him food and drink. Remembering those… Read more »
Righting the Right’s Wrongs
It had to happen sooner or later. Learning a valuable lesson from John Kerry, Obama made it happen sooner. His campaign created a new website, fightthesmears.com, to dispel the outrageous lies and rumors that surround his historic bid for the White House. With the full weight of Rupert Murdoch’s foul ass Fox News Inventing Bureau… Read more »
A Call For Unity? Or A Wake-Up Call?
The bitterest Presidential Primary I can recall in my 25 years of interest in politics is finally over. It hasn’t all been good, clean fun. It never is. So many things conspired to make this election particularly rancorous. And despite my optimism, I sadly admit that the societal negatives highlighted nearly overwhelm the positives.

Ebony and Ivory
Hold the phone! The latest eHarmony commercial I just saw had a Black and Asian (looking) couple. It’s an omen. There’s hope for the Democratic Party after all. All wounds will miraculously be healed. Anything’s possible. Gas prices might even recede. Just wait and see. Everything’s going to be OK.
Something Nice For A Change
We all know how much fun it is to bitch on your blog, but honestly, man does not live by rant alone. So let me take a moment to spotlight outstanding service from a vendor I discovered online. A heads up: this post continues my recent trend of geeky pursuits, this time cars again. My… Read more »
A New Low For Ricer Boys Everywhere
Just a quickie cause I haven’t posted in a bit. I ran across a new low for sport car tuner wannabes while looking for performance parts for my car. Apparently, if you can’t afford to put a real turbocharger on you can still have that lovely blowoff valve whistle between shifts. The product depicted here… Read more »
Dear CNN….
The comments of a failed president and fraudulent warmonger regarding “appeasement” of terrorists do not constitute “breaking news”. Love, Eric
Huh?
I fully support freedom of association, but I have to ask… What’s up with the one Black guy whooping it up for Senator Clinton in all the West Virginia primary speech news clips? You know, the one with the banana yellow tee and his dreads tucked under the knit cap.
