Does anyone still remember the answering machine? You know the thing that your 800 voicemails have made obsolete? Maybe your parents still have one. They have a flashing red number on them and they always broke down. The thing that I remember and loved about answering machines were that you could buy pre-recorded messages on cassette [...]

Tonight at 8 PM, The Actor's Gang's will pay tribute to this comedy legend...

Inside every cynical person, there is a frustrated idealist. – George Carlin I’m an idealist (read: naive). Well, I guess that makes me a cynic. A short time ago, I hit a period where I was up against a brick wall at work, fighting a force much stronger than I. My idealistic viewpoints were being met [...]

1. Abandonment is the backbone of entrepreneurship. By definition, an entrepreneur is someone who undertakes and manages risk. Someone vulnerable. Someone courageous enough to stick herself out there. And so, what she abandons are outmoded traditions. Popular delusions. Stale thinking. What she abandons is any shell that would otherwise choke the budding dream inside of her. Are YOU willing to plunge...

This is why we won't get universal health care. This is why our roads and bridges crumble. This is why our children graduate undereducated and overburdened with debt. This is why the United States, alone among nations, has been at war for most of my lifetime. Because we are, as the late George Carlin used to say, a frightened nation of “cop-lovers and soldier-sniffers.” From Progressive...

Maybe the whole midlife crisis thing is a myth, maybe it isn’t; but just in case, I was going to try to preempt it. Entrenched in my life as a tenured philosophy professor, the iconic routes were closed off to me. Being happily married (not to mention, teaching ethics), an affair with a younger woman was a non-starter. Two kids and a philosopher’s salary meant the sports car wasn’t...

I was recently reading about supercentenarians–people that have lived to the age of 110 or above–and read the following statistic: [Reaching] the age of 110 years [is] something achieved by only one in a thousand centenarians (based on European data). Furthermore, only 1 in 50 supercentenarians lives to be 115 (1 in 50,000 centenarians). Fascinated by this [...]

Classic stuff from George Carlin: "Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice . . . you don’t. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own, and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses,...
