A Woman Scorned…
This post is about abortion. Viewer discretion is advised… When is abortion NOT controversial, so I felt it was necessary to open with the equivalent of a movie black screen MPAA warning… you’ve been warned… The right to have an abortion was decided via Roe v Wade on January 22, 1973 by a 7-2 vote […]

Arby’s Had the Meats…
Why can’t chicken restaurants just sell chicken? To that end, Arby’s is now making burgers. But not just any burger… a wagyu burger.

The Cleveland Browns DAMMIT
So that’s it. All done. I’ve avoided talking about the Browns because when you don’t have anything good to say, don’t say anything. The Dog Pound is #1. I said something good. Now here’s what I really think…...
