This is in response to some reactions from my previous post: Man Harasses Woman On Facebook, Gets Exposed, Whines Like A Little Baby. . . Some people don’t like the idea of me, or others who shared this, sharing Alexandre Chbeir’s name and pictures online. What about his right to privacy? I thought I should address…

Which Would You Choose?
This one only took a little thought for me. I eliminated the first choice immediately. What’s so great about the moon? We already know there’s no aliens up there, which would be my only motivation for going. Plus there’s, y’know, the whole risk of DEATH to get there (and back), so no thanks. Now, a…
Venus Williams ‘at fault’ in Florida crash that killed man
Tennis pro Venus Williams is responsible for a Florida car crash that landed an elderly man in the hospital before his eventual death, according to a report. Jerome Barson, 78, endured head trauma in the June 9 collision and died two weeks later in an intensive care unit Sunday, TMZ reported Thursday. Barson’s wife reportedly…
Names of The Cosby Trial Jurors Released?!?
NORRISTOWN, Pa. (AP) — The judge who presided over Bill Cosby’s sexual assault trial on Wednesday ordered the public release of the identities of the jurors who deadlocked in the case but warned them not to divulge what other jurors said during deliberations. Judge Steven O’Neill granted a request by a dozen media organizations, including…
Choose 3 Powers To Make The Ultimate Superhero. . .
In a previous post, I went over the pros and cons of some of these powers. Super speed is a great power for becoming a superhero. That’s really the only ONE power that works. But multiple powers at once? That’s a different story. If I could only pick one out of this group, I’d probably…
Music, Video Games, or Martial Arts?
Well, this is another rather easy choice. I’ve written before that I’ve never been into video games, so that has no thrill for me. Mastering ever martial art would be good for personal self-defense, I guess. But since I don’t have the wealth necessary to also become a real life BATMAN, I don’t really see…
Which Button Would You Press and Why?
This is a good question, so let’s go down the list: Turning invisible doesn’t really have as many practical applications as you’d think it would. Unless I’m specifically planning to become a criminal. Or if I already were a criminal, and needed to hide from the police. Flying? Same thing. It would be fun. That…
“DUDE?”
I came across this online. I don’t know who wrote it or where it originated from: And all I can think of to say to that is:
Do You Believe in GHOSTS?
I asked this question on my a Facebook page last month and was slightly surprised at the number of friends who said yes. I also asked some coworkers and got several affirmative answers. But I guess I really shouldn’t be surprised. Statistically, most people believe in some sort of religion, which includes the belief that…
Pick Three Pills. . .
This was easier for me that I thought it would be. Of course my first thought was to pick the Money Pill, but then I figured it would be better to pick the Future Pill. With that, I could make plenty of money. Like Biff in Back To The Future II, I could first get…
If You Could Pick The Way You Die, What Would You Choose?
This is another one to answer: peacefully, in my sleep. DUH. Yeah, just go to sleep like normal one night and then, at some point in the middle of the night while I’m still in a deep sleep, my heart just simply stops… Although there is another part of me that kinda hopes I could…
If You Could Have Any Two Famous People For Your Parents, Who Would You Have and Why?
Well, first of all, let me just state for the record that I would NOT want to change my mother, whom I love dearly (my father, on the other hand, is a different story). And even if I didn’t, I obviously can’t. This is just a harmless little hypothetical thought experiment. That being said, my…
Breaking The Bro Code (BIG TIME)
I just read this story: BEAU BIDEN’S BROTHER & WIDOW IN ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIP L – Beau & Hallie Biden, R – Hunter Biden Former Vice President Joe Biden’s youngest son is in a romantic relationship with his sister-in-law and the widow of Beau Biden, the vice president’s older son who died in 2015 after a…
And Here’s A Reason Why SEARS Deserves To Go Out Of Business.
SEARS, that trusted American institution. The place where you could buy almost anything you could possibly need, all while singing catchy pop tunes with your siblings. But things aren’t looking too good for SEARS, just the other day I happened to come across this article online: Sears: A great American tragedy nears its end The…
I’m glad that Lee O’Denat Is Dead (YEAH, I SAID IT!)
Lee “Q” O’Denat, the founder of the immensely popular site WorldStarHipHop.com, died Monday at 43, the San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed to CNN. The cause of death has been listed as atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. The site, which O’Denat started in 2005, became a thriving aggregator. In a profile of its founder, the New…
Goodbye (and good riddance) 2016!
Boy, I am glad to get this year over with. I shouldn’t complain too much. I mean, on a strictly personal level I guess nothing really bad happened. I still have my job, and got a raise this year. I haven’t had any major health problems, or lost anyone close to me. So I’m doing…
AN OLD-ASS ROCK STAR JUST HAD A BABY. . .
Legendary Rock N’ Roll Icon Mick Jagger, excuse me, I mean SIR Mick Jagger, has recently become a father for the 8th time, when his 29 year old girlfriend Melanie Hamrick gave birth to a boy that they have named Deveraux Octavian Basil Jagger. Sir Mick Jagger turned 73 five months ago. SEVENTY THREE. And…
A 60-year-old’s battle to give birth to her own grandchild
A 60-year-old British woman has been embroiled in a long legal fight over whether she can use her deceased daughter’s frozen eggs to carry her own grandchild. Last week, the woman, identified as Mrs. M, won a crucial case in the Court of Appeal in London that could allow her to carry out what she…
In Defense of…GENE SIMMONS
This is a little old by now, but since Simmons is still getting attacked over it, I figure it’s worth writing about it. Okay, first, let’s look back at a couple of old posts of mine: WHEN I GROW UP I WANT TO BE…GENE SIMMONS And PRINCE ROGERS NELSON . . . So you know…
Accidental Incest?
I’ve been thinking about incest a lot recently, and before you jump to conclusions about what that says about me, please let me explain. First, a couple of weeks ago one of my Facebook friends posted a list of the kind or men she would not date. One of the items on the list were…
The Ethics of Using DEAD CELEBRITIES In Commercials
Okay, so y’all know that I don’t watch sports, which means I intentionally missed the Super Bowl. I understand that this commercial debuted then, but I just saw this on Saturday. A Snickers commercial starring Willem Dafoe, where he is shown morphing into Marilyn Monroe. And they use actual footage of the real Marilyn to…
2015 in review
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2015 annual report for this blog. Here’s an excerpt: The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 54,000 times in 2015. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 20 sold-out performances for that many…
Rolling Stone Twins: Guitarist Ronnie Wood Expecting Twins With Wife Sally Humphreys
Rolling Stone twins are on the way for guitarist Ronnie Wood and his third wife, Sally Humphreys, 37. While his wife is only two years younger than his first child, the rocker says he can’t wait to be a father again and doesn’t think his age is a problem, according to Houston Chronicle. The Rolling…
“Gamer Girl” VS. “Girl Gamer”
I saw this posted on Facebook the other day. And I thought about what a perfect example it is of the kind of sexist double-standards that women face. The woman in the above picture: she’s a slut? Okay, first of all, “slut” is such a gendered slur anyway, usually applied to a woman who likes…
Should This Cop Have Lied to These Kids Whose Parents Just Died?
Brendan O’Connor A fatal car crash left four children orphaned in Georgia on Saturday, BuzzFeed News reports. A police officer dispatched to the family’s address found himself unable to impart the news, and instead took the children for fast food and then back to the precinct for candy. In a statement posted to Facebook by…
