Dear John: Special "Ain't Got Much To Say" Edition!

Hard Core Advice From Hard Core’s Hardest Core... John Leslie! Dear John,      I'm worried about a close friend I have known for about ten years. She's well-educated, independent, and family-oriented. She has been online dating for quite a while and continually meets guys who have criminal backgrounds.      She dated one of them on the down low for two years because she was embarrassed by how he behaved in public. The most recent man served a 16-year prison sentence for being involved in a murder.      She tells me she doesn't see a future with any of them, but goes on multiple dates and defends them with, "He seems like a nice guy." In the next breath, she'll claim to want a meaningful relationship.      I have voiced my concerns. I asked her what she'd say to me if the tables were turned, and her responses mimic the concern I show her. I suggested she try a different website or mode o...

John 11:35 Revisited

When Jesus was on the road to Canaan, He came upon a man who was weeping.      "Why do you weep, my son?" Jesus asked him.      "Because I am blind," the man told him, so Jesus touched him and he could see.      Further down the road, Jesus came upon another man who was weeping.      "And why do you weep, my son?" Jesus again asked.      "Because, my Lord, I have leprosy," the man explained, so Jesus touched HIM and he was healed.      Still further down the road, Jesus came upon a third man and he was weeping most bitterly of all.      "Tell me, my son," Jesus said softly, "why do YOU weep?"      "Because," the man answered, "Donald Trump's been elected president."      And so Jesus sat by him and they BOTH wept together.      Thus sayeth the Lord.     American Chi...

The Week In Tweets: Special Fake News Edition!

Nuclear power plants are like, Communism, they're the best idea available... until people get involved.   I've got Friday off, but I don't want to waste it doing nothing.

You Can't Help The Stupid

as featured in Desert Exposure Magazine desertexposure.com   "I've got some bad news," my buddy Maloney told me.      It had been awhile since I'd heard from him, so I picked up my phone and gave him a call.      "How's it going?" he said, when he answered.      I took his inquiry at face value and began to tell him about my neighbors next door, the ones with the yappy little dogs. They had the Orkin pest control guy over, but he must have dropped the ball because my neighbors were still there the next day.      "You think you've  got problems?" Maloney groused. "I've got some bad news, some really bad news."      "What happened, Slip?" I asked, using his nickname. There's no conversational road Maloney travels on that he doesn't make a big ol' U-turn right back to himself.      "We got a call Saturday night. Sofia was in the hospital."  ...
