Well, Let Me Say This About That is an interesting twist on current events, as told by Dallas’ finest and funniest Craig McCartney.
Far be it from me to instruct others on how to behave (well not that far), but some folks seem to need reminding of what their mothers taught them…assuming their mothers did not provide the inspiration for one of the characters on “Orange is the New Black.” Surely I am not the only one who is shocked at the open […]
Being one of those who could not care less about football, I didn’t even know the Super Bowl was being played last Sunday until two days before the game. I just knew that the Dallas Cowboys weren’t going to play in it, and I wasn’t having a party. Not that I’m a big fan of the Cowboys, I’m just a […]
The other day I watched that old Streisand/Redford movie and remembered seeing it when it first came out. So I went tripping down Memory Lane, which is one of my favorite haunts. Back when I still thought Barbra was everything (and maybe I still do somewhere deep down), she asked if it was all so simple then. Well, Babs, it […]
Miss Craig McCartney, once again, correctly predicted the outcome of the 4th Republican Debate….sans Trump. Enjoy this Ms.Cleo-esk assessment of the state of the race and the debates!
My husband told me the other night that I’m a luddite. Karl was very pleased with himself because he first had to explain what he had just called me. That was more irritating than the label. Technically, I’m not a luddite, seeing as how I wasn’t around during the Industrial Revolution, but I am resistant to technological change. Neither my […]
Oops! They did it again. And we must boycott the Oscars. Clearly, homophobia is a problem within the 94% white, 76% male Academy (average age: 63). Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara get Oscar nominations for playing lesbians in “Carol” while Sarah Paulson gets snubbed for the same movie. Ms. Paulson is a lesbian, playing a lesbian, and we cannot have […]
Just a few weeks until the first votes of 2016 will be cast. After two debates, where candidates mixed it up and entertained us, Miss Craig McCartney has a few thoughts to get off his chest.
By the time you read this, the Powerball numbers for the $1,500,000,000 (doesn’t that look bigger than $1.5 billion?) lottery will have been drawn. Meaning that this column will be either the most prescient or the most immediately outdated column I’ve written. But here goes… I’d like to offer up to the Lottery Gods why I should win the jackpot. […]
After a lovely holiday, Miss Craig McCartney brings in the new year with a commentary on the current state of affairs. Craig even offers some advise to unlikely parties.
How are those New Year’s resolutions going for you? Not so good? I resolved to address my co-dependent relationship with carbs, but that’s hard to do when there’s leftover croquembouche in the kitchen. So, I’m going to focus on something that requires even more willpower. Here goes. Don’t complain; don’t explain. This seemingly simply maxim has been attributed to everyone from Disraeli to Ford […]
