Boo hoo: Olympic track star turns to bobsled, startled by pay

Bruce St. James | June 18, 2013 4:06 pm

So track star Lolo Jones is disappointed in the amount of pay a U.S. Olympic bobsledder makes. Wait, we PAY bobsledders! She posted a Vine video of her $741.84 check for what she said is seven months of training for the U.S. Bobsled and Skeleton Federation (Yes, we have one of those. Surprisingly, the rest […]
Close your eyes! Shirtless man in TV ad!

Bruce St. James | June 17, 2013 5:06 pm

In our perpetually “offended” society, some women’s groups are outraged (OUTRAGED I tell you) that Kraft would DARE use a shirtless man to pitch salad dressing. So let me get this clear. It’s perfectly OK to use scantily clad women to sell products to men, but a shirtless guy selling salad dressing to moms is […]
Coffee mug stirs up trouble

Bruce St. James | June 17, 2013 4:06 pm

You’d think people would have something more important to get worked up over. Advocacy groups honestly believe that a coffee mug, printed to look like a prescription bottle, will lead to the misuse and abuse of prescription painkillers. Seriously. While I do not deny that prescription drug overdoses and abuse are a real problem, it […]
HGTV, you fail civics, etiquette and sense

Bruce St. James | June 13, 2013 4:06 pm

I’m sure it’s news to some people that there is a U.S. Flag Code.
I will never complain about a housefly again

Bruce St. James | June 12, 2013 6:06 pm

Are you kidding me? Anything that big with wings needs a tail number and landing lights! I will NEVER complain about a lone housefly loose on my kitchen ever again. It could be worse, MUCH worse. Thank goodness we don’t have these in Arizona.
Our government is scarier than bad guys

Bruce St. James | June 6, 2013 4:06 pm

It’s official. I am more worried about my Government than I am from any “terrorist”.
Does ridiculous IRS spending shock anyone?

Bruce St. James | June 3, 2013 8:06 pm

Why is ANYONE surprised that the IRS spent $50 million on conferences and videotaped themselves dancing at them?
Extreme Barbie Jeep racing!

Bruce St. James | May 30, 2013 6:05 pm

Racing has been a bit of a challenge this year. I am thinking of switching gears and I think my goddaughter has one of those Barbie Jeeps in the garage. It is so ON! As Jalopnik points out “Extreme Barbie Jeep racing is cheap, fast, and has everything I really want out of offroading.”
I hate being proven right

Bruce St. James | May 20, 2013 7:05 pm

Benghazi. IRS. Associated Press. “Scandals” by some definitions, I call them proof of Government ineptitude and corruption.

Told ya so.
My bigger issue with the IRS scandal

Bruce St. James | May 15, 2013 8:05 pm

Do I think President Obama ordered the IRS to make life hard on the Tea Party? No.
What I’ve learned from the Benghazi hearings

Bruce St. James | May 10, 2013 10:05 pm

When you consume news and information from a variety of sources (with a variety of viewpoints) a few “truths” begin to emerge.
Even bad guys deserve a decent burial

Bruce St. James | May 6, 2013 7:05 pm

Timothy McVeigh, Adam Lanza, the Columbine killers and even Osama bin Laden were all afforded some form of respectful burial. Why is Tamerlan Tsarnaev’s case so different? There are plenty of gravestones, tombs and burial sites of people who have committed far worse crimes and murdered more innocents. And that’s just in Massachusetts alone. I […]
May 1, 1994

Bruce St. James | May 1, 2013 9:05 pm

Nowadays it’s entered into a calendar program or app, but I used to hand-write the word “Senna” onto May 1 of my calendars every year.
Another ‘American Dream is Dead’ column

Bruce St. James | April 29, 2013 9:04 pm

A degree, willingness to work hard and playing by the rules doesn’t guarantee success in America.
The good and bad of instant reporting and how I broke all the rules

Bruce St. James | April 23, 2013 8:04 pm

I am not a journalist.
