From beautiful South Austin, I write songs, articles, and sermons with the aim to educate, entertain, and inspire, to keep the darkness at bay by lighting candles of humor, hope, and a little hell-raising.
A non toxic form of Twitter.

Good to see you here! I'm still trying to figure out what it's useful for. The user interface is beyond clunky, and you're capped at 300 words, which doesn't give space for thoughtful discussion. I hope you find some uses I haven't.

You haven't seen it because FB has been shadowbanning it. That's why I'm giving Bluesky a try, as a forum for one-liners. Great to see you here!

Half of that was what DODGE called a “clerical error,” which listed an $8 million contract as $8 billion. After more media callouts on bogus numbers, DODGE deleted the five biggest items from its list. The bottom line is that careers are being destroyed by an outfit that can't get its math right.

• Bonus Accomplishment: Watched sales and deliveries fall at my electric vehicle company, whatever it’s called. BFD! Thanks to my investments in the new POTUS, I still got $245 billion richer last year!"

• Gained access to confidential government data on my business rivals. Eat that, Bezos!
• Danced onstage with a chainsaw. It suits me for living in Texas.
