Don’t Let the Old Man In

There was a lot of talking about Toby Keith, upon his untimely death recently. The best I heard was the line "Don't let the old man in". It was told to Keith by Clint Eastwood when he was asked how he keeps going. “He said, ‘I just get up every morning and go out. And … Continue reading Don’t Let the Old Man In →

The Iron Doesn’t Lie

Just as I was about to write piece about this, Vox Day weighed in on Sigma Game about this very subject. Although my take on it is little bit different. His is about calculating your max, say for a bench press. He issued a challenge to his readers to test the method. Love to do … Continue reading The Iron Doesn’t Lie →

Culling the Herd

There are a number of bloggers I read that I spring a few bucks for their paywall writing, like Zman's behind the green door. He had a piece last week on companies getting rid of all the hu-white guys with institutional knowledge. The other day I learned that my contact at a longtime customer had … Continue reading Culling the Herd →

Vox Smacks a Hornet’s Nest

Vox Day added a substack to his repertoire. The sit is named 'Sigma Game'. He started it because he's had a lot of call for a book on the sociosexual heirarcy. (SSH) The SSH is simply a mechanism to figure out who you are dealing with when encountering a dude. A woman's one would be … Continue reading Vox Smacks a Hornet’s Nest →

An Interesting Observation

I had good friend call me the other night. He goes dark for weeks at a time sometimes, and then emerges to catch up on what’s been going on. He said he was worried about me. Turns out his son nearly died over the New Year’s holiday. He got married very early, and after four … Continue reading An Interesting Observation →

For Whom the Bell Tolls

I found this on the Burning Platform: https://twitter.com/i/status/1745760948097327572 She records her...uh...Force Management Planning event. The piece itself is about being replaced by diversity. I don't understand that, really, since she's a semi-protected class, so to speak. I'll circle back to that. First off, everyone knows when a Day of the Long Knives is coming at … Continue reading For Whom the Bell Tolls →

DoubleThink

George Orwell had a word to describe how these nutty lefties think today. It was called DoubleThink. This way you can seemingly hold to objectively opposite opinions at the same time, insisting both are right. For instance it is a simple concept; is always wrong to harass, badger, hurt, or kill innocents. Period, end of … Continue reading DoubleThink →

Happy Thanksgiving!

Merry Thanksgiving! Not everyone everywhere celebrates the day, but they should. It's good to take stock and thank God for our lives. This has been a miserable year. I won't bother with any of the bad things which are considerable. But I am Thankful. I have a roof over my head and food in my … Continue reading Happy Thanksgiving! →

I’m With Ya, Brother

Kim DuToit had a post about this. Dude named Marcus Berkmann on how cool it is to be old. At the age of 62, I have realised that I am living through one of the most purely humorous phases of life, which may be why I laugh out loud if I happen to catch sight … Continue reading I’m With Ya, Brother →

Shouldn’ta Done IT

Last week I veered off my diet, big time, and am paying the price. Men's club at Church had Pasta Monday night. It was good so I over did it. Wednesday was a team social zoom meeting, so I got Starbucks macha latte. Then I had a meeting in the evening, so I was hungry … Continue reading Shouldn’ta Done IT →
