A Winter Auto Tour of Our Fair City

by Clarence Worly February 22, 2010

I notice things when I drive around town…
The trek down 17th is an adventure and I’m always entertained by the kids freezing their rear ends off dancing around on street corners shaking signs for tax preparation or $5 pizza or 99% off the entire inventory of plaid davenports at Dave’s Davenport Emporium & Quick Stop. I’ve [...]

Conservative Lifestyles vs. Conservative Politics

[Authors Note: All names were changed to protect the innocent]
I’ve only met one person in recent years that I would consider conservative. His name is “Bob Jones” and I’ve worked with him for over 10 years. Bob paid off his house when he was in his late forties; I was at his mortgage burning party [...]

Idaho Reds Pimp Out State Capital – Leave Schools Unfunded

Thumbnail image for Idaho Reds Pimp Out State Capital – Leave Schools Unfunded by Clarence Worly February 16, 2010

There’s a great scene in Adam Sandler’s crappy remake of Mr. Deeds; Sandler’s character informs two elderly ladies sitting on a park bench that he just inherited several billion dollars and one of the geriatric women nonchalantly replies “That’s nice, now don’t go spend it all on a fancy record player.” Sound advice Granny….sound advice.
Flash [...]

HUMOR: Ski Targhee, Lose Weight, Bond with Loved Ones

by Clarence Worly February 7, 2010

My current spouse put a tray of vegetables in the downstairs fridge last Friday night. The same fridge that I use to keep my man things cold…beer, clam dip, Tabasco, horseradish, pepperoni sticks and an emergency bottle of Crown in the freezer in case I run out of beer when entertaining my “guests”. I tried [...]

And Here We Have Idaho…Falls

Thumbnail image for And Here We Have Idaho…Falls by Clarence Worly February 2, 2010

Since many of we locals don’t have a whole lot to beat our chests about when it comes to monetary gain or land ownership or careers, bragging rights about how long your family has been in Idaho Falls is of the utmost importance to the many circles of one-uppers sitting around playing Texas Hold ‘em [...]

Tattoos…The Best Way to Express Individuality

Thumbnail image for Tattoos…The Best Way to Express Individuality by Clarence Worly January 25, 2010

It seems the economy is still in a tail spin since voters activated the ejection seat on the GWB crew and gambled on a new pilot to pull out an 11th hour maneuver to keep us all from pile driving into financial terra firma. Sadly, with every yank on the control stick we tax payers [...]

Bringing Back Brand Name Loyalty:

Thumbnail image for Bringing Back Brand Name Loyalty: by Clarence Worly January 21, 2010

I’m a pickup guy, not that there is anything wrong with sedans or SUVs or sport coups, I just prefer to drive a vehicle that has the ability to carry large heavy stuff, you know, just in case. I was driving home from dinner at Red Lobster last week in my trusty ’98 Dodge [...]

Identifying The Smarmy

Thumbnail image for Identifying The Smarmy by Clarence Worly January 20, 2010

I‘m middle-aged, I’m over-weight, I’m narrow-minded and I’m afraid of what I don’t understand. While most voters in Idaho and Utah would consider these traits essential for any elected office, they have proved to be somewhat problematic for me at times. My complete lack of social grace, my irreverence for all I don’t respect and [...]

Concealed Weapons…Catnip For The Paranoid

Thumbnail image for Concealed Weapons…Catnip For The Paranoid by Clarence Worly January 19, 2010

Anyone with an IQ above room temperature knows we would all be safer as a society with fewer firearms. The problem is, short of kicking in the doors of every citizen (law abiding and criminal) in the United States and forcibly retrieving these guns, there is no way in hell to control or regulate the [...]
