The NRA and most other gun proponents are less about the second amendment “right to bear arms,” and more about the right to sell them. It’s sad neither of our presidential candidates has the stones to stand up to them.

A one year, “death penalty” football ban for Penn State isn’t nearly enough. Kids got raped by a football coach, and the “legendary” head coach knew about it. And did nothing. The kids should be able to transfer, but that program needs to go dark for at least five years.

I’m an admitted “liberal elitist,” and I apologize for posting about politics, but given the healthcare plan he advocated for and delivered in Massachusetts, could Mr. Romney possibly be any more hypocritical regarding his opposition to “Obamacare?”

“The Dark Knight Rises” was superb storytelling and summer action, all with a “Robin Hood”/Occupy Wall Street bent. One of my favorite lines was by the villain “Bane” as he and crew raid the NY Stock Exchange. One floor toadie squeales, “This is a stock exchange. There’s no money you can steal,” Bane responds coolly and with alot of bass, “Really? Then why are you people here?” Oh, and Anne Hathaway rocked as “Catwoman!”

I’m looking forward to the Liverpool – AS Roma tilt at Fenway this week with (Play)Joyce and her soccer-playing son. I’ve never seen a world-class soccer game in person, plus it’s a chance to visit Fenway without being subjected to the cheesey “Sweet Caroline.” Not to worry, though, the $7.75 beer price will be irritating enough…

I wish I had more for you…
