Classic Rant #655 (January 13, 2012): Nothing Much Today

I have to admit, I am usually not at a loss for words, but today I am.

There really isn't too much to report on today.

My life did not change when Kristy McNichol announced that she is a lesbian.

Didn't people kinda know about this already, or at least surmised that she was gay?

And she has been a non-entity for such a long time that I don't really think people care at this point.

Heather Locklear's story is a bit worse.

I heard this morning that she was in the hospital for an undisclosed ailment, and then later, I heard that it may have to do with mixing pills and booze.

What an idiot.

The Knicks have been playing well, but they lost last night, and much worse, let's hope that don't lose Carmelo Anthony for any extended period.

He was taken out of last night's game with a sprained ankle, but that appears to be it.

I have completely lost interest in the Republicans who have the eye on the big prize.

I have come to the conclusion that if any one of these guys runs, they are going to get stomped by President Obama.

Is this the best the Republicans have to offer?

And as for that quote from Mrs. Obama about being "an angry black woman," stop with the racial stuff, please.

Americans look at her husband as our President, not our "black" President, and we don't look at her as anything but our First Lady.

Enough with the racial stuff ... we should have passed that by when we elected her husband to the Presidency.

I don't know what else to say today. As I said, there isn't much happening that I care to report on.

But I am sure that next week, there will be much, much more to speak about.

I am not off on Martin Luther King Day, although I kind of wish I was.

I don't want to miss all the sales that will be offered by stores on that day.

I guess that day is no different from President's Day, as it's nothing but a sales day now.

Or for me, a work day.

See you next week.
