Get to the Punchline
Sometimes you can skip right to the punchline and the joke still works: …and then the horse said, “Holy Crap! It’s a talking dog!” …if that’s my thermometer, where’s my pen? …if I could walk that way I wouldn’t need the talcum powder. …$20, same as downtown. …I don’t have to outrun the bear, just […]

Ann Coulter gets chatty
I have been deflecting the sexual advances of my friend and drinking buddy Ann Coulter for a couple of decades now. And yes, it gets tiring. She was in town last week to piss off the progressives at CU Boulder. So, after we sobered up I had her swing by and tape an episode of […]
Prepare NOW for the hurricane
Dear Friend of Freedom, “Hurricane California” is about to drown Colorado. So I’m writing to give you our survival and recovery plan.
