Writer - facts and fiction - who's on the lookout for the next vibe shift. Recovering talk-show host, journalist, ad guy and C-suite suit. Grew up small town farm boy and still loves the outdoors. Just trying to be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.
Those nasty, little morsels of chalk, so popular around Valentine's Day are updating their one-liners. "SPLIT RENT," "SHARE LOGN," "CAR POOL," "BUY N BULK" and "COOK FOR 2" are among the new sayings.

Apparently "WHAT THIS COUNTRY NEEDS IS LOWER MORTGAGE RATES" was too long for the chalky heart.

Would the last person leaving the John F. Kennedy Center please turn out the lights?

Maybe they can use the building for something else. How about BINGO?

Have you ever watched someone playing ping pong and thought, "Hmmm, there are a couple of dorks?"

You may need to rethink that. Ping pong has a whole new vibe. Since Bluesky doesn't have enough room, here's my take from my LinkedIn page.

Where's my paddle?

If you think ping pong is something that dorky dweebs play in the basement when there's NOTHING else to do, think again. In fact, ping pong, or as it is properly called, "table tennis," has gotten a...

Think of it as an opportunity to use those fabulous persuasive skills you have to "up-sell" all those lemmings on getting double-meat on their Big Macs.

At $12.68 per hour, you'll be able to leave your momma's basement in 39 years, give or take.

Maybe you've noticed. Not many folks are wearing those Trump red caps any more. As a result, the Trump Store in PA is closing due to a precipitous drop in sales.. If you need one of these silly caps, better hurry. Here's why.

Tired of working that overnight shift down at the QuickMart? Can't figure out why people have always laughed at you? Real law enforcement wouldn't think of hiring you, and the army doesn't sound that fun?

Anyone who has been paying attention to the pedophile-in-chief knows it was never about the drugs.

It was about Epstein and making money for those oil billionaires who gave him millions in campaign donations. One is getting a good ROI on his investment.

Now that everyone is being forced to come back to the office, there's a new approach to wearing shoes. Don't wear them.

This is in line with Silicon Valley’s 996 culture (in which people have been working 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. six days a week). Sounds like fun. Right?
Welcome to the Office. Now Take Off Your Shoes.

Medical officials in Hawaii have reportedly added Donald Trump’s name to an STD clinic, turning it into “The Donald J. Trump Center for Syphilis and Chlamydia.” No confirmation. No paperwork. Just a joke that spread because it landed a little too cleanly.

The bill seeking the release of the Justice Department’s files from the investigation into the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein was expected to get a vote in the House as soon as Tuesday. President Trump, who campaigned for weeks against the bill, reversed course Sunday. TACO.
