<h2>Similarities are getting scarier</h2> In August 2005, I humorously compared George Bush's Iraq strategy to that of Futurama's Zapp Brannigan in his battle against the Series Seven Killbots. As of yesterday, this is no longer funny as Bush announced his ingenious new strategy of escal...
<h2>What is it exactly? Does it even exist?</h2> Really people, has the world gone completely mad? Are there actually people out there that consider symbols like Santa Claus and the Christmas tree to be religious? Apparently, yes because people get all freaked out when they see these thin...
<h2>It's about friggin' time!</h2> Recently our president decided to finally go where he was supposed to go back when his peers were being killed for our country. Vietnam. He also finally made the comparisons of this pointless, politically motivated and unpopular war in Iraq to that very ...
<h2>Still I'm a little disappointed in some of my peers</h2> OK so there we were for the past few years screaming and bitching about the team of Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld. We hated this war and the lies that got us there. We were sick of the 'Stay the Course' attitude that permeated thru ...
<h2>Thanks to the candidates, I know what I need to do</h2> I am so sick of the course of politics in this country. Especially the thought of any hope of real positive policy being lost in a sea negative campaigning. As the race for Senator in New Jersey heats up, I've been exposed to ads...
<h2>Our nuclear weapons are ok but yours are evil</h2> Is it just me? Does anyone else think it's weird that the US has a list of countries that can and cannot have nuclear weapons? Oh sure, the list itself seems logical enough. I mean if you are an ally like Pakistan or the UK than you'r...
<h2>Proof that old men should not have web access</h2> Over the past few days there's been a lot of blame being tossed around for why Congressman Mark Foley sent sexually explicit advances to an underaged male page. If you ask me, the reason why he did this is simple; he is sick. Of cours...
<h2>Why do we always let ourselves be fooled?</h2> I was a big fan of former NJ Governor Jim Florio who told us flat out that taxes would go up. After all, it's as byproduct of inflation. Everything goes up. Food, rent, gas, phone, etc. So why would taxes miraculously be unaffected? His o...
<h2>9-11 Fives Years Later</h2> I'm sick of the rhetoric, I'm sick of the bullshit campaign speeches, I'm sick of the Bush Administration's denial of what actually happened...
<h2>9-11 five years later</h2> Two questions that most conspiracy theorists bring up are: What was the 'real' reason for Building 7 coming down? How does a 747 with wings leave circular hole in the Pentagon?...
<h2>Oh apparently about $1.00 ... what a bargain</h2> OK, so there I was on 125th Street waiting for a friend to come out of the bank. Inadvertently I made eye contact with a woman holding a paper called 'The Revolution'. She immediately went into her rant about the atrocities of war, the...
<h2>Scare tactics worked as the State re-opens services</h2> I had gotten some minor, constructive flack from folks, including my friend singer/songwriter Dave Calamoneri, for being so harsh solely on the governor during this short but scary crisis. He helped to clear up one vital point. ...
<h2>Why be concerned about being able to play the slots or buy a lottery ticket?</h2> Some folks—especially Corzine supporters—have said that it is superficial to be concerned about Atlantic City and the Lottery being victims of the state's shutdown. As much fun as it is for grandma to go...
<h2>How will keeping people out of state parks help the budget?</h2> With the July 5th deadline for shutting NJ down looming, I have questions that need answering. I'm the first to admit to having little understanding about the business of politics. This latest move from NJ Governor Jon C...
<h2>His words are a mainstay of Hoboken open mics</h2> And the Lord said, "Let there be light!" and there was light. Then Michigan Jackson said, "Let there be more light!" and there was more light....
<h2>Did you get out and vote today?</h2> Did you vote? I did. Earlier this morning I went to the polls, walked right up, gave my name and pushed a few buttons. I like voting here in Hoboken. There is never a line. This actually strikes me as kinda odd since it is such a densely populated ...
There's amusing and then there's downright freaky. This fortune was just so oddly specific in its details....
