They say the pen is mightier than the sword, and the sharpest words of all are the ones that make us laugh.

I don't know about you, but I haven't been laughing enough lately. I zap around the tube, and all I see is war, famine and plague. If I wanted that I could call the ex, eat my own cooking, and drink some tap water.

Maybe it's our own fault. We elected the guys running the circus. Most of us realize we're too stupid or lazy to make the big decisions. So we hire furniture salesmen, retired wrestlers, and sons of billionaire oil barons, and let them spend our tax money on the things they want to play with.

And being power obsessed 9 year olds, they want to watch things blow up, and blame everyone else for their poor judgement.

So if you find any of my stories humorous or vexing and need a pithy and challenging column to round out your newspaper's coverage, contact me.
