I wish for simpler times, but more people and more technology mean more complications. It also means more troubles, too.

All law enforcement car sirens have been changed to play the national anthem. Now when they turn it on, the perpetrator just stops to take a knee.

No you don’t have to take down the Ray Charles thing downtown. Just don’t go downtown.

Apparently, its wrong for the Russians to interfere with elections, but it’s OK for illegals to vote in our elections.

Obama had eight years to deal with Rocket Man, however, that would have tarnished his immaculate legacy.

Taking a knee before the national anthem doesn’t change much, NFL. You’re still shoving your politics down the fans’ throats on company time, and we’re not going to stand for it.

Relax, people, when Rocket Man fires his nuclear weapon, you’ll have just 39 minutes to get to a fallout shelter. Only one hitch in this scenario. Our government has only built enough fallout shelters for the people Washington, D.C. In the rest of the country, there’s only enough for one-half of 1 percent of the population. It will be mass chaos.

$135 billion a year lost to the taxpayers for illegal immigration. Who supports illegal immigration? Liberal Democrats.

Hefner laid the foundation for an America of broken homes and single mothers. He’s no icon.

How can the city of Albany let a professional football team leave and not do what they need to do to keep them here? The city manager and the director of the Civic Center need to get together and get this done. The Georgia Firebirds want to come back, but the city is not on board.

While the people in Florida, Texas and particularly in Puerto Rico try to get their lives back, Trump’s vacationing for the 30th time on the taxpayers’ dollars.

Is there anyway we can drop Trump and his multi-billionaire buddies in a wilderness without any way of communication, food or water so they can show us how-to by helping themselves?

Florida doesn’t want O.J. Simpson in their state and we don’t want him in Georgia. Send him to California or Chicago.

What is it going to take to forgive the NFL? Is what they did forgivable? Should the boycott continue?

My wife loves my NFL boycott. She gets my attention on Sundays. I say, NFL please help me. Stand!

Perhaps the NFL players should quit the NFL and get jobs as policemen for a small fraction of what they made in the NFL. When you deal with the dangers the policemen have to put up with, maybe you will appreciate them more. Put yourself in a policeman’s shoes, not a thug’s shoes.

I don’t mean to brag, but I just put a puzzle together in one day and the box said 2-4 years.

So, are the Democrats telling the Puerto Rico mayor what to say? I wouldn’t doubt it. Blame Trump on everything. Why stop there? Go ahead and blame trump for Hurricane Irma, just like the Democrats blamed Bush for hurricane Katrina.

I finally found out what the NFL stands for — No Fans Left.
