It's one of those days. There isn't a whole lot going on that's grabbing me, and I'm still not unshook from this weekend. But it's Monday and the week's starting again, so let's see what we got. A 5-4 decision by the United States Supreme Court overturned a lower court's decision to implement a new redistricting plan … Continue reading Monday, February 7, 2022

The Weekend: February 5-6, 2022
I shut down this weekend and unhooked myself from the world. I mentioned Friday that I had to say goodbye to my best friend, and that has been a drag. Plus, it's been too damn cold to deal with it. The weather's nice looking but still too cold to deal with. I'm tired of talking … Continue reading The Weekend: February 5-6, 2022

Y'all, I've had a rough week capped off by a plumb awful Friday. I may get into it deeper this weekend, but long story short is I had to bury my best friend today. My buddy Otis, the Jack Russell, stepped on a rainbow today after a long illness, and my heart is broken in … Continue reading Friday, February 4, 2022

Well, I'll be damned. He signed it. Late this afternoon, Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves signed into law the medical marijuana bill the legislature voted into law. Therefore, we're the 37th state in the union to legalize the noble weed in some form or fashion. I admit I didn't figure he'd sign it. It went through the House … Continue reading Wednesday, February 2, 2022

It is indeed one of those days. It was very pleasant outside here at Enon Holler World Headquarters, almost Spring-like, but it's supposed to turn off nasty over the next 48 hours. Winter Storm Landon, they're calling it, and it's pegged to bring some nasty weather to the Midwest and Central-East. So, buckle up and batten … Continue reading Monday, January 31, 2022
The Weekend: January 29-30, 2022
Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer announced his retirement this week. This gives President Joe Biden an opportunity to fill the now-empty seat with a choice of his own. In theory. No one thinks if there were less time until the Midterms that Mitch McConnell wouldn't pretend there's some reason not to. That can't play here. … Continue reading The Weekend: January 29-30, 2022

I really don't want to write about the Russia-Ukraine business or the latest round of it rather. For one, I feel like it's above my paygrade. Furthermore, I'm of the opinion that America's foreign policy is beyond saving. We're calling arms and whatnot sent to Ukraine "lethal aid," and I mean, come on. However, it … Continue reading Monday, January 24, 2022
The Weekend: January 22-23, 2022
We started the week with the observation of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr's birthday, so we started the week with some of the most outrageous examples of rank hypocrisy American politics can produce. I'm old enough to remember when the GOP had to be dragged kicking and screaming into honoring the man. Hell, the first … Continue reading The Weekend: January 22-23, 2022

Y'all, it is cold outside. Right now, as we speak, we're at the warmest we've been all day, a toasty 35 degrees Fahrenheit. It got down to the mid-twenties last night and probably will tonight, as this cold will last a couple days. On the upside, the sky is clear and the sun is shining … Continue reading Friday, January 21, 2022

Today is the day we observe Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s birthday. It's not, however, National Hypocrite Day. That's in June, but given how many conservatives pretended they wouldn't consider Dr. King a woke communist race hustler if he was alive today or they wouldn't consider him a trouble-making agitator causing the Civil Rights movement … Continue reading Monday, January 17, 2022
