Hey, all. I’m back. No, I’m not dead. I know some of you were wondering. When you get to be our age and your emails and posts and likes just disappear, well… the mind can’t help but go there.
No, I just took a little break from the Substack blog. A little discouraged, I guess. After a dozen posts I went from 40 subscribers to 39. (this one might get me down to 29) That hurt. And the country now has a lot of problems, like five dollar a gallon gas, five dollar hamburgers, (here in Nevada we got a huge ugly suffocating cloud of smoke coming in from California; it’s still Forest Fire Setting Season over there.) And then there’s all this political stuff to deal with, like white privilege (I think they ran out of that when I was a kid wearing my older brother’s hand-me-downs), poor drug-addicted, alcoholic, mentally ill homeless people who camp in front of your home and shit in the bushes, and of course, trans stuff. I think Buttegeig is in charge of the trans department. Oh, and they discovered another dozen pronouns: yo, huh, sh*t, ooh, ah, what-tha.. And a couple people I bumped into while out walking around told me about two that I didn’t know I had, namely, incel usurper and vanilla bitch. Hell, I was still struggling with Miss, Missus, Mz, please and excuse me.
So I went to see my doctor, Dr. Howzitt Goan and he prescribed a 10 milligram/day script for ®Controlla. It’s a new one from p$fzer that the Federal Government commisioned because half the country has been debilitated by massive amounts of misinformation during the Covid plague. I saw the ads while watching My Little 1,000 Pound Sister last night. They had a big bash after her weigh in… she’s down to 987 now after she went from the Colonel’s Block Party Pak of chicken legs, down to the Superbowl Pak, a good move on her part.
So, like I said, I’m on this new medication and it does seem to help (hence this post).
Did you see on the news that 50 migrants were kidnapped and ended up on Martha’s Vineyard. I knew something was not right about that because Martha had already gotten all her grapes in the fermentation vats and hadn’t called for migrant workers. Then I heard that it was the mean MAGA people who live in the Southern Border states. They’re now sending these migrants to sanctuary states and places. That ain’t right. These mean MAGA people chose to live on the border... Their choice. And if that means migrants coming across, well, they should have moved somewhere else. I mean, it would be like President Obama and Michelle complaining about rising tides or something after building their huge… uh, large… com… I mean, house, on the be… near the o.. you know. So these border people should just deal with the influx of migrants and not be sending them all over the country like the government is do… Wait a minute. My head hurts. Let me take another ®Controlla. Ah… Yes, I feel better.
Okay, I said this would be short. So I’ll leave it there. My little novel, Crossing Over, is getting some traction. It’s a ‘what if,’ what-if-the-now-quiet-Americans-who-are-getting-pushed-around-started-pushing-back and we got into a 2nd civil war kind of story. Actually, just like in my little book, we now have some states ‘pushing back’ against other states and the federal gubmint. And my newest book, Escape From the Future and Other Stories, is selling modestly. Imagine if a family from the early sixties took a time-machine to 2025. What the hell would they think about what’s going on? A damn good read, if I may say so myself and I will ‘cause this is my blog.
Lastly, folks, remember, if the current messes we’re in starts getting you down, you might just want to see your doctor for a script of ®Controlla. (Wow, you know, Michelle Obama really was the hottest first lady we ever had. I see that now. Thank you, ®Controlla.)

That's good news about Escape from the Future. I don't know anything bout Controlla but I would test it on my cat first.
