The problem with some people is they don’t appreciate great insight when they hear it. For instance, I was watching “The Walking Dead” with the lovely yet formidable Marcia when I said “Why are the living people afraid of the zombie people when the zombie people are so dumb … [Read more...]
Surveyin’ da Situation: There’s no place like … whatever they call this place
I was traveling to Appleton, Wisconsin, I recently and had to hit the road early as it is a 4 ½ hour drive each way. The weather was good and I saw some country I hadn’t seen in a long time. As in most parts of the country, there are signs up when you cross over into a new … [Read more...]
This week’s Auchtoon: The ‘scourge’ of vaccines
Toon & Text by John Auchter When I was a kid I remember seeing a "man on the street" segment on TV interviewing people about the value of seat belts. One guy in particular had a very low opinion of them and made this case: "If my car ever plunges off a bridge and into a … [Read more...]
Come Heller high water … the March 23rd edition
Come Heller high water … The argument in the House over Obamacare amounts to this: Is America going to get a terrible replacement or no replacement at all. It's like watching two bullies arguing over who gets to kick a kid harder. "Me!" "No, me!" And in the end, both sides … [Read more...]

Come Heller high water … the March 15 edition
Come Heller high water… Hey, Rachel Maddow, it’s not earth-shattering news that the non-interesting pages of Trump’s 2005 tax return surfaced. If he didn’t leak it himself, I’ll eat my socks. (Notice how weak his objection has been. He wanted this out to show he pays taxes – … [Read more...]
Michigan’s Asian carp problem, solved
In his State of the State address last month, Gov. Snyder offered a million bucks (really) to whoever comes up with the best idea to stop the dreaded Asian carp that are headed for the Great Lakes via Chicago’s waterways. Once they make it - gulp, gulp, gulp - there goes the … [Read more...]
All hail the man-child-in-chief
It’s becoming clearer by the day that we’ve elected a child as president. I don’t say that to be insulting or partisan. I say it as a parent. I raised three kids and recognize child-like behavior when I see it. In a child, childish behavior is normal and to be expected. In … [Read more...]
