“On Oct. 25, 1967, [John] McCain had destroyed two enemy MiG fighter planes parked on a runway outside Hanoi. He begged to go out the next day, too. But as he flew into Hanoi again on Oct. 26, his jet’s warning lights began to flash.”
What Donald Trump was up to while John McCain was a prisoner of war

Dear Hollywood … please stop stealing titles for new blockbusters from superior low-budget independent films!
Thanks.

The news informed us today that a fifth member of the United States Armed Forces has died following the spree killings Thursday at military offices in Chattanooga, Tennessee. United States Navy Petty Officer Randall Smith died this morning of his wounds.
Godspeed to all those lost in the attacks, as well as their loved ones. Semper Fidelis. Non Sibi Sed Patrie.
In fact … ALL of the college publications are — including The Aubade and The Battlefield. The keyword-searchable collection goes all the way back to 1912!
Wow.

And check out the article I wrote for The Bullet about Junior Ring Week in March 1994. Featured are the pranktastic hi-jinks of Nickolai Butkevich, Travis Clements, Mark Knezevich, Rhett Carlson, Lowell Whitney, Tom Mitchell, and more.

[I had just admitted to a social conservative that I am indeed a narcissist. This is what happens when pseudo-intellectual New York poets argue with Southern Republicans.]
Some Guy: “Narcissistic dick. Yep …”
Me: “Narcissistic Dick!” Hey!! That has assonance!!! That would be an awesome name for a punk band!!!
Some Guy: “You know nothing of punk or bands. Just stop it.”
Me: “And YOU, Sir, know nothing of ASSONANCE.”
😀
And how can I CONTINUE being straight if two gay people get married on the other side of town?!?! (I can feel the wedding’s gay rainbow radiations converting me.)
How can I CONTINUE being white if non-whites are afforded basic Constitutional freedoms?!!? Like this liberal “due process” thingy and this “protection from unreasonable search and seizure” and this “not killing black people in the streets” constraint for the police!?! (It makes me less white … metaphorically. Or … something.)
And don’t lay that bullshit on me about a “false dichotomy” being a “logical fallacy!!” GO BACK TO YOUR LABORATORY, SCIENCE BOY.
