Snoop Dog Obama

President Obama's White House is asking Americans to forward along any and all emails they receive from other Americans that say anything that sounds "fishy" regarding healthcare. One can only assume the White House definition of "fishy" is anything that doesn't tow the party line. I mean, really. For someone who taught Constitution law, Obama is displaying an appalling lack of any fundamental grasp of the First Amendment. As the rightful backlash continues to gain speed, the White House is stepping all over its penis in an attempt to walk that bit of bullshit back from the edge.

Beer nuts

In about thirty minutes President Obama will share a beer with the two principals involved in the infamous Cambridge Caper: his friend "Skip" Gates and the man who arrested him, one Sgt. Crowley. Who wouldn't want to be an ant on that picnic table, right? But why do you suppose the fine lady that placed the 9-1-1 call that started it all wasn't invited? Is it just a guy thing? Maybe as our three beer nuts loosen up and get to talking they'll decide it's all her fault - if she'd had just minded her own damn business, they'll figure, all the fan blades would be free from shit.

The show's gone to pot, again...

With all the recent media attention to cannabis, I thought I'd get on the bandwagon and make it the subject of tonight's show. There is little doubt that all this increased attention to the use of cannabis, both medicinally and recreationally, has exposed more of the other side of the cannabis story - something long overdue. But I believe it's far too early to break out the cigars and champagne. In fact, we need to step back and look anew at how best to manage this attention.

Smoke 'em if ya got 'em...

I enlisted in the U.S. Army back in 1974, when I was 24 years old. I smoked non-filtered Camels, and had been for almost 10 years. We recruits were kept pretty busy during basic training, and the smokers among us relished the few times a day our drill sergeants announced "smoke 'em if ya got 'em." And now, if some of the more PC folks in the FDA and the Pentagon have their way, that phrase will disappear from Army lexicon.

It's been a Vicodin kinda week...

I had back surgery in 1998 to correct a badly-blown disc in the L-5 region of my spine. The surgery saved me from becoming a cripple, and I was very grateful. Over the intervening years my back has "gone out" on a fairly regular basis, but not to the point of requiring additional surgery - something I continue to be grateful for. But on those occasions, I've had to resort to eating handfuls of 10-mg Vicodins to get me through. Thankfully, I've a doctor unafraid to properly prescribe opiates for my condition.
