FriendBurst vs MySpace

It may be because FriendBurst is small and does not have the number of members that MySpace had, but FriendBurst is much more shallow than MySpace was during its heyday. On MySpace I belonged to several groups whose interests were the same as mine even thought the majority of members were politically opposite. It did […]

My Light At The End of the Tunnel is Dimmed, but I Can’t See It Anyways

A couple blogs ago, I wrote about how enthused I had become about the possibility of returning to the road in a motor powered vehicle.  Driving is something I’ve taken for granted since I was 17; to be in one’s 40’s and to be banned from the road, yeah, that fact has been a big […]

The UnBlock Party

Unlike some, I don’t like blocking people and have unblocked everyone that got blocked due to the new “Karma” block feature. This blog is for everybody to come and enjoy Labor Day with whatever you wish to contribute. You can contribute music, poetry, photos, trips, life stories, recipes, whatever you want. And yes, even those […]

Cheese Bombs in Wisconsin, Chinese Flags and Gay Eskimoes.

Could we get three any more different nouns in a blog title? This is just another of my “this day in Joko History” blogs, where I run some re-runs.  This one happens to be remarkable because it starts with “What You Don’t Want To See at Airport Security”, my single most viewed video on YouTube.  […]

If you’ve never played fantasy football, […]

Butt Grease and Squeeze Box

I’ve never truly understood bicycle shorts.  I suspected that those who wore them probably did so for some semi-erotic reasons under the pretense of what?… better aerodynamics & freedom of movement?  Why else would any self-respecting dude wear what amounts to spandex in public? I finally understand the function of bicycle shorts.  They’re to keep […]

My NFL Blogs

I am an avid New Orleans Saints fan. I am a NFL junkie. I will from time to time after the lockout is over, during the free agency period and training camps begin and especially after the regular season begins, will be posting NFL blogs. These blogs will be about NFL football not MLB, NBA, […]

Are You Ready for Some Football?

After four months of mostly posturing and maneuvering, and suddenly motivated by potentially losing hundreds of millions in revenue from canceled preseason games, owners and players are in near-agreement on ending the sometimes-contentious labor impasse in the $9.5-billion-a-year industry. NFL labor sides to meet in New York; deal apparently imminent

Demand NFL Owners Give Us Our Football!

After constant attention on negotiations in the National Football League and the subsequent lockout [where the employers refuse to let the employees work] by the owners, there has been something close to silence. Recent court rulings have permitted the owners to go forward with their lockout, at least for now. And, the rest of us […]

Novak, My Son, Congratulations on Beating a Butt Sniffer!

Congrats to Djokovic, a discussion of how really weird of a sport tennis is and exposing Rafa Nadal’s serious “pick and sniff” problem.
