Do you know people who, when in a leadership position, fit the description in my sub-title? I certainly do and although I like most of them, I simply canNOT work with them! One of my pet peeves is having someone in a leadership position who simply leads by WillyNillyness. Could I be describing your boss?

Moronageddon
One only has to think about how people - greedy, narcissistic, powerful people - have put this planet and humankind itself on a collision course with annihilation - while - the rest of us, aware of the deadly ramifications of, say, just climate change, napped until the very last moment to attempt to repair what is mostly irreparable damage, in order to begin to grasp the immensity of the word, Moronageddon.

Fine Dining
Having just-turned 50, Martin Crum is having an extreme midlife crisis. He is bored beyond belief with his three decade-old job as host of an increasingly unpopular cooking show on a local cable station in New York City. He’s in a sorry state of reflection – depressed by his failure to move up the celebrity ranks, fearing cancellation of his show, is hardly recognized on the street anymore, he hates his graying hair and frumpy appearance as much as his moneyed ex-wife who left him because she considered him a relic a decade ago, and he’s always feuding with the neighbors in his apartment building.

My Unsung Hero. Runner-Up in Father's Footprint Challenge.
His name will not come to mind when you think of Canadian heroes. His music will never be immortalized and etched in the minds or included in the record collections of millions. His deeds, however, will be fondly remembered for years to come by thousands in Windsor, Ontario, Canada’s southernmost city.
