Vegas or Bust

Making my way westbound today. Heading out to that oasis in the desert. The place where dreams and bank accounts are grown and shattered (hopefully the former for me). That’s right baby, I am headed to Vegas. That wonderland where all my gambling desires are fulfilled. A smaller crew is headed there than in year’s […]

A New Kind of Experience

Today is Selection Sunday. For someone from Kentucky, this gets marked on the calendar along with birthdays, Derby Day and when the beginning of college basketball begins.

Co-opting Hope

Posted on

I gave up soft drinks almost a decade ago now. I dabble in the occasional ginger ale when a upset stomach busts in, but there will be no pop otherwise. I preface this because I’m not bagging on Pepsi here because I am a Coke man or some other B.S. I’m pissed at Pepsi because […]
