• The Missouri Pimp Squad

  As a resident of the state of Missouri I feel completely degraded by the actions of my state government over the last two weeks.

Roe vs. Wade was overturned in a 6-3 vote. https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/27/politics/states-abortion-trigger-laws-roe-v-wade-supreme-court/index.html The state where I […]

• Review: Three Billboards Outside of Ebbing, Missouri

  

  Over the weekend I watched the 2017 release Three Billboards Outside of Ebbing, Missouri.  It’s a very good film and Frances McDormand does great work in it.  The only other movie I’ve seen Frances McDormand in is Fargo.  The two films have a lot in common.

• Waitressing While Black – Shannon in Kansas City

  

  I have had several customer service jobs in my life.  My career has mostly consisted of working in retail and I have had restaurant jobs as well.  I have learned a lot about the human race while working as a public servant.  Some of it is good.  Some is just matter of fact.  Much of what […]
