You Really Know How to Piss Me Off!
Have you ever felt that your whole life is inside-out, upside-down, and backwards? I do. I’m 70 years old, a Vietnam War veteran. I survived the war and the MASS SUICIDE that followed. In the aftermath of the war two … Continue reading

Brothers and Sisters and The Great Carbunkle
Generally speaking, the great Feminist Cult carbunkle is coming to a head. The cult is all about self-loathing and Freudian penis envy. Sisters (may I call you sisters?) hate being women and envy men (their brothers). Since you can’t punish … Continue reading

Siblings
When the promised and much-touted GI Bill of Rights proved logistically inadequate to my college ambitions and my father was opposed and unhelpful to them; I turned in desperation for help from my then grown siblings. I’d done the math … Continue reading
