The Long Run
DC is considering a bill to legalize gay marriage. That is so gay, and expensive. Gay marriage and divorce is a red herring. Gay marriage and gay divorce is not about “gay,” it’s about money. ...
Mom Asks Permission to Kill Intruder
A young Oklahoma mother shot and killed an intruder to protect her 3-month-old baby on New Year's Eve, less than a week after the baby's father died of cancer. But that's not the story. Sarah ...
Do You Know Who Chip Franklin Is?
I was telling my son about Andy Warhol's declaration that in the future everyone will be famous for 15 minutes. He said, "who's Andy Warhol?" I've been in front of a microphone for all of ...
Stupid Is...
There's a great show on cable called Mythbusters. They expose old wives tales, and general misconceptions about everything from science to religion. It's popularity, in my opinion, stems not so much from a need to ...
I Hate Magicians
Most people find clowns creepy. Me? I hate magicians. There I said it. The whole point of a magic show is simple; "I know something you don't know and I'm going to make you look ...
Googling "Chip Franklin"
A friend asked me if I ever googled myself. I said "what is this, don't click, don't tell?" To Google someone, as if I needed to tell you, is to put your name in a ...
More Highway Laws
Kansas has just passed a law that makes it illegal to drive in the left lane unless you are passing, in an emergency, or you're 80 in a Cadillac with the blinker on. All across ...
Paying for Grades
I covered a story last week about a middle school in North Carolina that let kids pay for grades. You heard me right. $40 for an A, $20 for a B, $10 for a C...and ...
Tarp Money
Recently I read a story where the govt said they would pay down the debt using stimulus funds. Uhh, anyone ever seen an Escher painting before? It doesn't matter if you're a Democrat, Republican, or ...
If you name a boy Brandon or Carson, they're already gay
Every year we see that list of the most popular baby names. And every year, there is this debate. Do you name your child something exotic to get noticed, or something drab so he can ...
Hitchhiking
I can’t remember the last time I hitchhiked. Probably somewhere between Ted Bundy and John Gacy. There was a time when sticking out your thumb was a legitimate, folksy way to see this country. Even ...
Receipts
I like the Apple store because they can email you your receipt. Thats convenient. Less paper, less crap in my pocket. Best Buy, on the other hand has a receipt so long, it doubles as ...
City of Hell "A"
You know, I have been reading a lot about the problems we have at the border, so I got my passport, went there and wow, it's like a different world. Oh, not Mexico...I meant LA. ...
What do you do?
Whenever I meet people, invariably this comes up. So what do you do? What they really mean is - ARE YOU WORTH MY TIME? You answer "heart surgeon," they move toward you. All of a ...
Homo Sapiens are in The Military
I don't get the controversy surrounding gay people. For the record, I define a gay guy as basically any man better looking than me. On one hand, if I was as good looking as most ...
Fear This!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=60MUR6wTzNY I'm not afraid of heights. I am however, afraid of falling from heights. Fear is a funny thing. It relies on certain criteria that would on the surface seem ironic. For example, studies have ...
Electricity
San Diego is the perfect place to live, depending on of course, where you live. Right now, it's hot. Of course, San Diego is hot. Which is anything over 78. Here in America's finest city, ...
