You know too many teams make the playoffs in your sport when fans don’t even get excited about a post-season appearance. Exhibit A for that in the NBA are the Milwaukee Bucks. There is ZERO buzz about the Bucks upcoming series with the Boston Celtics–which tips off on Sunday afternoon. I’ll grant you, it’s more…… READ MORE

Now What?
For real Conservatives, the hits just keep on coming. House Speaker Paul Ryan’s announcement that he will not seek re-election this fall is another blow to the hope that perhaps the founding principals of the Republican Party will be upheld during the Trump presidency. But now there will be one less voice to say “This…… READ MORE
Pride of Place
I hate to use the term “logic” when it comes to anything President Trump does, but is it possible that what seems like the wild actions taken by the President could lead to beneficial results for the country? Take for instance the order to place National Guard Troops along the Mexican border. While it makes…… READ MORE
The Expected Result of Sharing Too Much
Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg goes before Congress today to “apologize” for allowing Russians to hijack his website and “influence the 2016 election” by targeting users for inflammatory or misleading stories. I would much rather that he go in with a defiant attitude and place the “blame” for what happened at the feet of…… READ MORE

The Most Anticipated Ever
If there is one phrase that I think best captures modern life it’s “Hype and disappointment”. Everything is promoted now as “the best”, “the greatest” or “new and improved”–but when you buy it, see it, or hear it, your reaction is “meh”. And that is why I’m reluctant to get to pumped up about the…… READ MORE

No Distance Will Be Great Enough
I hope every Republican running for elected office in Wisconsin this fall is in good physical shape–because all of them will be trying to distance themselves as far as possible from President Trump on the campaign trail. A simple stiff arm likely won’t do it for voters–this will have to be a full-on sprint in…… READ MORE
WARNING!!! TOO MANY WARNINGS!!!!!
If you ever travel to California and you buy a cup of coffee in the morning, don’t be surprised if there is a large warning label on it. A Los Angeles judge has ruled that java contains a chemical compound that the state of California has determined to be carcinogenic–and the public must be warned…… READ MORE
