Jesse James Owes Dennis Rodman An Apology

I've been terribly derelict here recently in commenting on the "news" of the day. The truth is, I don't follow the news super closely, on a day-to-day basis. I've always found the instant overreaction by the media to whatever is happening on a given day, to be fatuous -at best. But I do pick up bits and pieces of this and that, mainly through hearsay, hearsay and the ESPN bottom line (the single dumbest thing they've ever unleashed on the American public, that and keeping Dick Vitale around for 30 years). Most days I keep myself rapturously uninformed, or at least under-informed on what's happening (and rapturously is the right word, as I don't wanna know most of what I do know, if that makes sense, much less stuff which I blissfully don't know). Still, some things sneak through into my head, as desperately as I'd like them not to, and knowing those things, I do have reactions to them. Anyway, those reactions are some of what you've read on this blog the past 16 months. Blah, blah, blah...

I did see where The Tiger came out of hiding and gave 2 interviews a week or so back. And by interviews, I mean non-interviews, as The Tiger was not pressed for an answer to a single difficult question by these reporters. I don't totally fault the reporters, as they had been granted all of 5 minutes with His Holiness. And The Tiger stonewalled, sounded as robotic as ever, gave non-answers, etc...(someone is making a killing coaching him to sound like his golfing buddy, Barack Hussien Obama). I would have asked The Tiger if he has any advice for Jesse James (and giggled as he squirmed). And I also would have inquired if he missed the wild, Ambien-fueled, sex romps with porn stars and other assorted skanks. That's about it. Oh, and if he realizes the inevitably endless needling from his son's schoolmates that will come down the road (from schoolmates not unlike myself no doubt, sorry as I am to admit that).

One more golf note - it should be pointed out that since an anonymous commenter on this blog disparaged Ernie Els lack of recent success a month or so back, the guy has won the last 2 tournaments he's entered (big events too, Doral and Arnold Palmer's tourney). I think the right phrase for this is poetic justice. Or irony. Something though. Definitely something.

As for Jesse James, some of you might recall my ripping him last spring during the tediously unwatchable Celebrity Apprentice. There was something about the guy that struck me as creepy, at the very least, and a complete piece of shit, in the extreme. Well, the recent revelations about his dubiously executed, and yes, creepy affairs with big-busted, tattooed skanks, shows that once again, I have some insight into these types of things. I guessed right again. There is just something in the way he tries to look so bored of whatever is happening, in the way he goes to great lengths to appear unkempt when he's a multi-millionaire, in the hollow look of his beady eyes, that seemed shady to me. And phony. I don't know for sure. But poor Sandy Bullock, how she ever got charmed by that despicable liar is beyond me. Sandy probably has daddy issues. They almost all do...

Also, Jesse James should apologize to Dennis Rodman for being a complete hypocrite. But I bet he won't. Guys like that never do.

I also saw where some nuts in Michigan were rounded up and charged with "seditious conspiracy," as apparently they were planning some half-baked scheme to kill some law enforcement folks. And as far as these nuts go, if it's true that they were conspiring to kill law enforcement personnel, then go ahead and lock them up, give them a trial, etc...What I find interesting about the charges is the term "seditious" being used by the federal prosecutors in this case. The reason I find it interesting is because, you could argue, that sedition (defined as promoting insurrection against the established order) is exactly one of the tools used to break free from British tyranny back in the day. I'm not sure how many nutty groups like this one in Michigan are around the country. But as I've said before on this blog, it can't rally surprise anyone. Many people are pissed. Misguided, generally stupid, under-educated, and wacky - all true. But the pissed part, I can understand to a certain degree. Just remember what my man Tommy Jefferson said: "Every generation needs a new revolution." And: "Experience has shown, that even under the best forms of government, those entrusted with power, have in time, ...perverted into tyranny." He might be right. It wouldn't be the 1st time.

I'm sure something has been going on with Joe Biden as well. I just don't care.

I saw a warewolf drinking a pina coloda at Trader Vic's

His hair was perfect
