Come Heller high water … I wish Democrats would just shut up about a “blue wave” for the mid-terms. There may be one but it’s far less likely to happen when they keep going on pundit shows and yapping/boasting about it. Zip the lips, people. Let things unfold. Watched pots, … [Read more...]
Miss Michigan turned 8 seconds into this …
Miss Michigan didn’t win the Miss America pageant last week but she did win a bigger prize, I figure. R-e-s-p-e-c-t. You probably didn’t see the pageant. Relatively few did. The ratings said about four million TVs were tuned in, down about 20 percent from the previous year, … [Read more...]
Auchtoons – If adults attended Michigan schools …
By John Auchter Michigan schools are now back in session, many starting classes up to two weeks before Labor Day. I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that it has been oppressively hot and humid. Can you imagine what the learning environment has been like in classrooms … [Read more...]
Surveyin’ da Situation: Some days you aren’t the windshield …
By John Matonich I have always enjoyed my life and even more so since my bride and I retired and moved back to God’s Country. That being said, I have to admit there are still some trying times that can test your sense of humor, but with a little fortitude, even the days that … [Read more...]
Come Heller high water … the beginning of the end edition
Come Heller high water … Trump never tweeted a truer tweet than when he tweeted the word “TREASON?” He was talking about the senior White House official (god bless them) who wrote the New York Times op-ed saying he/she and others protect the nation by blunting the orange … [Read more...]
Come Heller high water … the Labor Day weekend edition
Come Heller high water … I love Labor Day as much as you do. But for the sake of intellectual honesty, I wonder if it’s time to drop it. Labor Day was created to honor workers and labor organizations. But according to a new Pew Report, real wages (meaning purchasing power) … [Read more...]
Auchtoons: It’s sick how unhealthy we are
Toon & text by John Auchter Sometimes the point of a conversation is to discuss an issue, not necessarily to resolve it. This goes against my middle-aged man tendencies. I'm inclined to want to find the resolution by providing the answer (or, let's be honest, appearing as … [Read more...]
Surveyin’ da Situation: But wait, there’s more!
By John Matonich I don’t stay up anywhere near as late as I used to. I guess as I get older, sleep is more important than seeing what’s on late night TV or having an early morning breakfast after a night of a few adult beverages. I also don’t sleep in anymore which is also a … [Read more...]
The empty nest years have arrived all too soon
“The last one is finally out of the house.” That’s what I’ve been telling people in a jokey sort of guy way, with the emphasis on the word finally, as if I simply couldn’t wait for this moment to arrive. But I don’t mean a word of it. When we dropped Henry, our youngest, … [Read more...]
Come Heller high water … the media finally fights back edition
Come Heller high water … Love it that more than 300 newspapers ran editorials today protesting Trump’s destructive “fake news” label. And when I say destructive, I don’t mean to media. He’s been great for media, financially. I mean destructive to the nation. We have no other … [Read more...]
