FINISH

Tripthelight10
I'm at that point where I've got 28 posts sitting as drafts.  I can't seem to finish like I could when I was younger.  Doesn't even matter if it's not Sunday - I can't get it done any longer. For years I've been working on meandering observations, topical essays, I've…

FALLING DOWN

Tripthelight10
FRIDAY, AUGUST 19, 2011 FALLING DOWN With the looming influence of the tea-baggers of the extreme right of the GOP poised to further destroy the remaining embers of this shattered nation, I hope that a few of the fringe might take just a moment to research more of what the…

REPOST

Tripthelight10
SATURDAY, JULY 23, 2011 REPOST I'm not a fan of following trends in social media. Don't get me wrong, I Tweet, I You Tube and I Facebook.  I used to MySpace but I don't tell too many people that.  I even used to use AOL chat back in the day…

BOWLING

Tripthelight10
SATURDAY, JULY 16, 2011 BOWLING There are plenty more times when I simply leave a pending article in draft mode than I actually post.  Indicates a very short attention span, in addition to the fact that I can't complete a thought.  Every once in a while I meander back through…

REMEMBER

Tripthelight10
TUESDAY, JUNE 14, 2011 REMEMBER I've been told I have a big ego. Although outwardly I often react by denying it, shuffling my feet in some imaginary sand and offering a trite reply such as "Aw Shucks no I don't ma'am" or some other lame retort. Facts are facts -…

NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN

Tripthelight10
SUNDAY, MARCH 27, 2011 NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN There's very few things more uncomfortable than a wake.  What with an indiscriminate assortment of people all wondering the same thing about you that you are of them - what's your relationship to the deceased and are you appearing appropriately sad? …

LIFE’S MEASUREMENT

Tripthelight10
MONDAY, MAY 24, 2010 LIFE'S MEASUREMENT We attended a funeral Friday morning for a friends sister who passed away at only forty two years of age. Not nearly enough time for her to do everything she wanted to no doubt. Very sad indeed. Yet the service, attended by literally hundreds…

THE WATCHER

Tripthelight10
TUESDAY, MAY 18, 2010 THE WATCHER There are so many things you can learn - you just have to be open to it.  In my life I've learned that it's just better to be accepting of others opinions, even though I may disagree.  I enjoy a spirited debate on pretty…

THE NEW KLAN

Tripthelight10
FRIDAY, MARCH 26, 2010 THE NEW KLAN You’ve probably read the stories, seen the photos and videos.  There’s been an uprising in this country, and it’s been growing.  People have apparently had enough, and they’re speaking out. Am I talking about injustice, and the American people taking to the streets…

WHERE EVIL COOKS

Tripthelight10
SATURDAY, MARCH 6, 2010 WHERE EVIL COOKS There was a tragic period this past January here in Giddyland.  Seems Cablevision and Scribbs Network had a contractual dispute and on January 1st – The Food Network and HGTV were pulled from our service.  There was much bickering, mudslinging and blame tossed…

EBAY

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 2010 EBAY I’ve been a registered user of eBay for over eleven years.  I have a perfect feedback rating.  I’m primarily a seller, but I buy things from time to time.  Not a big time dealer, but I am a “Powerseller” as well as a “Top Rated…

PHONES

Tripthelight10
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 2010 PHONES I generally don’t like talking on the phone.  I’ve used the phone for business for years, but I’m not too big on the chit chat shit.  A quick informative catch up from time to time is cool, but that’s about it.  Having done sales for…

SHUT UP

Tripthelight10
SATURDAY, JANUARY 16, 2010 SHUT UP Sometimes things worry me, sometimes things piss me off. If you know me – you know then that the statements this week from two of our nation’s most popular blowhards, Pat Robinson and Rush Limbaugh  pissed me off. Perhaps you were troubled too. I’m actually…

PANDEMIC HAMSTERS

Tripthelight10
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 2009 PANDEMIC HAMSTERS Injustice? Or our own damn fault? Have you been reading about the theories surrounding the swine flu pandemic in the Ukraine? There are many who believe that what’s going on there is not actually the H1N1 / Swine Flu, its bio-terrorism resulting in a…

HAIRCUT

Tripthelight10
SUNDAY, MARCH 21, 2010 HAIRCUT Speaking frankly, I can sometimes be offensive. And for that, frankly, I’m sorry. I only mean to offend those that deserve it. I’ve had some issues in organizing my thoughts into a coherent article recently, so I thought I’d combine some highlights from three separate…

PIZZA STOP TERRORIST

Tripthelight10
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 16, 2009 PIZZA STOP TERRORIST ANOTHER BONEHEAD BACKSTORY! Before I got into radio, like most young people I had a few different jobs. I drove a truck, worked in a retail store warehouse, sold stolen goods, but primarily my work days were spent in restaurants. If you’ve previously…

MORE SHEEP

Tripthelight10
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 9, 2009 MORE SHEEP There’s an awful lot of rhetoric being tossed around these days that seems intended solely to incite the ire of hard Republican Party liners against our President and his administration. Perhaps you’ve heard some of the nonsensical uprising over his speech to America’s schoolchildren on September…

JACKO

Tripthelight10
FRIDAY, JUNE 26, 2009 JACKO Based on the events of yesterday, I’d be remiss if I didn’t spend a moment commenting on the passing of Michael Jackson. Obviously I have previously taken advantage of many opportunities to be a wise ass prick. And you’d think with the plethora of material…
