So, a few weeks ago, my nephew sent me a link to the following webpage, “W Magazine Replies to Kim Kardashian’s Tears Over ‘Porn’-y Nude Pics.” Let me start out by saying that I find anything Kardashian disgusting and try to avoid reading about Kim or the rest of the litter. I still remember […]

One of my readers, David Walker, wrote me the following: With all this Trump stuff in the news…there are two things I don’t get! First, I’m not a birth’er per se…meaning I don’t waste a lot of time and energy running around that circle. What I don’t get is what is the big deal for […]

A couple of weeks ago, someone asked on my Facebook page, I Don’t Get It, for my comments about a tv show on ABC’s fall line-up entitled, “Good Christian Bitches.” So, Rick, here are my thoughts. The tv show is based on the novel by Kim Gatlin. The “dramedy project,” as it’s described, is about […]

I recently read a very interesting book entitled, “The Rite,” written by an Italian journalist who accompanied a modern-day exorcist, Fr. Gary Thomas, during his training in Rome. (I haven’t seen the movie.) In the book, one of the parishioners asks the priest not to discuss evil spirits and demonic possession during his sermon because […]

I’d like to think that, for the most part, the “N” word has been abolished in our civilized society. With the exception of it being bandied about amongst young Blacks, something which I will go to my grave not understanding, the word has been pretty much eliminated from everyone else’s speech. Almost. You may […]
