Venezuelan Crisis: What is Happening And Shouldn’t They Lay off the Drugs? Click on the news and there it is, on Twitter, CNN, FOX, CBS, NBC, and John Oliver… Venezuela- that 2 dimensional rhino of land – hogging up the prime-time limelight.

Chile, Argentina, Spain, Europe, U.S. straddling up to their Principal at the UN: “This has got to stop!” The UN looking at the turmoil, the autocratical snit and shrugging, “we don’t want to cause a scene. Let’s just put a wet blanket on […]
Venezuela: The Madness And Why It is Here To Stay.
Warnings: below spans the verbose work of a madman working his way through the coffers of his ex-hippie Grandma’s stash. Underpinning the nuts and bolts of something that clearly makes no sense, trying to weed out logic and reason with cooked noodle tweezers, and a noggin’ high on primo peyote. Sadly, despite the free-flowing thoughts sizzling on the sidewalk, this is not a case of fantasy supplanting reality but of a government majoring in applied hubris and a populace working on semantics, trying to scoop-out form in a non-euclidean landscape and floundering helplessly in a sea of sheer insanity. Standing its ground, like a diseased archaic remnant of the inbreed societal and political makeup of a pre-industrial Era, Venezuela chews […]

Donald Trump, America, Wake the “Bleep” Up; The Election Fiasco
Please note that this is not an endorsement of Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, or of any candidate, but rather an opinion piece on how a nation can be hypnotized by constant media attention, fear of ‘the other guy’, short attention spans, and even shorter memories.

The aromatic reek of lavender, desperation. and alcohol, so profoundly warm, that even cat piss seemed glacial refreshing by comparison. In other words, yet another of the many dilapidated locations pockmarked across the Venezuelan capital, Caracas. A mundane fixture on a sprawling panorama of calamitous gloom. “At least, the water’s working.” The faucet making a squeak akin to modems from the 90’s. “So, you game?” “Not taking that action. That’s like saying the sun comes up […]

In other words, Donald Trump has been clinging like a dead beetle on the stale bread of my evenings. Mind you, this is not a bad thing, per-say. When you’re a willing bachelor, there is nothing stronger than a pair of breast, to even make yeast sound exciting. When your horny, and in need of a good row, you’re charming disposition is willing to spin Oscar Wilde retorts on the banalest things in existence. Add a bit of alcohol; the wench’s abysmally deep cleavage; that […]
