Happy New War . . . . ooops ... sorry -- Year . . . .


The Gadfly had an uncle, just back from his first combat mission in Vietnam, who blew his brains out in back of his Chevy station wagon in the woods behind his apartment complex.

War is good?

Please allow me to introduce myself, I'm a man of  . . . . . fill in the blank






Pardon The Gadfly as he lustily eyes that unattended bottle of God's Nectar on the table in corner just off the dance floor . . . . .



Hehe . . .

Life ......

Jeebus fucking kripes . .. . . this song is the story of about a third of The Gadfly's life and life style ....




Thank The Flying Spaghetti Monster that The Gadfly settled down and became a respectable . . asshole.

New Year's Rockin' Eve (to be cont.) . . . . .

The Gadfly isn't going to bother to explain to not even one smart ass bastard why he enjoys Loverboy's music . . . all he knows is that when he was a young military lad, in a bar in 1981, this song made his young, dumb ass feel invincible with a very certain young lady ....

The Coffee Wars . . . . . . . .

The Gadfly fancies himself an amateur coffee connoisseur.  The Gadfly is a proud owner of an old school, well used Mr. Coffee coffee maker as well as a fairly new Keurig K-cup machine.

But here is something that the The Gadfly states without hesitance -- he hates Star fucking Bucks.

It's not their coffee.  It's alright, but not brilliant.  It's their fucking marketing arrogance.

Thank God Lewis Black is on the job to help us make a bit of sense of this stupidity . . . . .

New Year's Rockin' Eve (to be cont.) . . . . .

The Gadfly is a transplanted California man.  30+ years now.  Came and never looked back.

Happy fucking new year you dear reading bastards . . . .

To One and All -- A Happy and Very Snowden New Year . . . . . .. : )



Do you want to know who The Gadfly raises a begrudged shot glass of fine Tequila to in this barely born new year?  Edward freaking Snowden.

No, no-no -- wait before you pass judgement on that dear reader - show patience and listen.

The reason The Gadfly feels that way is that the computer worm of a man known as Edward Snowden - quite simply - provided pretty fucking positive proof of what most all of us reality-based thinking people have been suspecting for years, especially after 9/11, namely that our government used those terrorist attacks as justification to basically take a box cutter to the Constitution and utilize extreme measures to turn America into nothing more than a polished version of the goddamn former Soviet Union.

Spying on it's own citizens en-masse.  Spying on it's allies.  Torture.  Lying.  Lies upon lies, upon lies upon lies.  Liars.  All of them.

Edward Snowden has not given up the crown jewels of American intelligence, if he had he would be dead by now.  What he has give up are the lumps of coal which show that this country's government, or it's spokespeople/leaders shouldn't be blindly trusted, regardless of which political party is in control.  Our "leaders," for the most part, are nothing more than tools who give much more deference to the military industrial complex (gee - maybe because they're bought and paid for?)  and million dollar money donors than they do to the $5 and $10 donors of the average citizens in their own districts.

That is what Edward Snowden exposed.

So yeah -- here you go Ed --- bottoms up --- oh - and btw -- if you see a shadow overhead -- duck for cover son.

The Makings of a Good New Year? . . . . .




The Gadfly is not going to bullshit you dear readers.

Here is a truncated list of The Gadfly's wishes for the year 2014.

Defeat every fucking Tea Party candidate possible.

That's it.  That alone would make for a successful 2014.

And no --- it does not mean vote just for Democrats.  It means vote for sane people, and the Tea Party aren't sane fucking people.  Period.

New Year's Rockin' Eve (to be cont.) . . . . .

Billy Squier was the rock star who never was.  The Gadfly states that because this guy just put out some of the most awesome, mind-bending, kick ass music over the years, but he never seemed to garner the industry or public recognition like a fuckhead like Ted Nugent did . . . . anyway -- this song, in The Gadfly's humble view, puts any of Ted's wang-dang pussy songs to shame:
