Failed First Flights

Look up in the sky.

Is it a bird or a plane?

No, it is a Russian who thinks he can fly.

He is training to be a cosmonaut.

Actually, it is a Putin ally falling out a third-story window.

Falling out of windows is the leading cause of death

in Russia for Vladimir Putin’s foes or even his allies.

Putin has run out of enemies to poison.

He now wants to see if his allies can fly for his fun.

Poisonings and falls mean a shortage of bullets in Russia.

All ammo must be going to fight the Ukrainians.

Silly Russians. You would think they would keep

their windows closed in freezing Moscow winters.

Did he suffer vertigo or are people who know Putin

just incredibly clumsy when they’re near windows?

Russians like their vodka and are vigorous drinkers.

So, of course, falls will happen from time to time.

I suspect the Putin Plunge as the cause of death.

That open window policy of Vlad’s is highly effective.

If it’s a classic and works, why change?

If you do not die from a third-story fall

you will die on the second fall.

Most of these deaths happen from open third-floor windows.

Why aren’t the deaths happening from higher floors?

I suspect Putin’s henchmen are just getting lazy.

Is the average Russian just ignoring all these deaths?

You know, like Americans who ignore mass shootings

and just mutter, “Thoughts and prayers.”

That complacency is why Russia is raining men.

Russian police concluded their lengthy investigation

into the latest death and determined

that gravity is the chief suspect.

They claim the gravity pull in Russia is the highest in the world.

Meaning; that gravity is not your friend and can be lethal.

It was also suggested these fallers had heart attacks.

That can happen when you’ve been launched out a window.

No medical research needs to be done on that.

A KGB agent suggested that victims of

window falls are quite possibly sleepwalkers.

Another agent said there has been a rash of assault windows.

There have been attempts to ban assault windows.

Sadly, the window NRA lobby in Russia is strong.

and is opposed to any kind of window regulations.

Window installers could have done a shoddy job.

We will never know as conservative politicians

support all forms of business de-regulations.

The CIA knows that the Russians have been hacking Windows for decades.

I do remember that private meeting Trump had with Putin.

The one where no U.S. interpreter was allowed.

Vlad was offering him a nice third floor apartment

in exchange for US nuclear secret documents.

Strange all these Russians attempting dangerous

aerial maneuvers from tall buildings

When crossing the road in Russia

remember to look left, right, and up.

A Joyous Obituary to AM Radio

Electric motors in Electric vehicles

interfere with their AM radio signals.

That is why several auto manufacturers.

have eliminated AM radios in their vehicles.

Lawmakers want automakers to include

AM radios with every car they sell.

Keeping AM radios in EV vehicles

could cost auto manufacturers billions.

The West Virginia Attorney General noted

that while technology should advance,

we must be careful during times of transition

that West Virginia isn’t left behind.

The attorney general hasn’t noticed that

West Virginia is already a century behind the times.

The elimination of AM radios is a big plus.

I say goodbye to mindless AM sports talk radio.

On sports radio, football dominates year-round

whether it is football season or not.

All other sports are ignored

when they are not being trashed.

Soccer is a particular enemy

as is any women’s sport.

Sports radio is the misogynistic domain of men.

We have macho BSers who call up and grunt

the Browns, Steelers, or Bears suck.

Three hours of a football game broadcast

is just not enough for some football fans.

They want an hour pre-game show

and an hour post-game show.

Then we have the fanatics who need

every last void filled by sports.

For them, we have radio fantasy football.

Seriously, fantasy football?

It’s just pure silliness on the AM dial.

These shows feature a so-called fantasy expert,

who judges fantasy head coach callers

on their fantasy roster for the week.

AM radio sports talk shows feature ads

for men’s testosterone clinics and

ads for a male-focused attorney.

They seem to be targeting somebody here.

Next, we have that late-night Crazy Coast to Coast.

It features a wacky smorgasbord of subjects like;

the Jersey Devil, Lizard Men, the Michigan Dog Man,

Skunk apes, Chupacabras, Yetis and Yowies.

Add in conspiracies and anything paranormal.

The hosts are anything but normal.

One host, Art Bell, has been dead for five years.

Guests are fake historians and fake scientists,   

all presented as experts in their fields.

Next is the crazy Hell and damnation preachers.

They all sound like they need an exorcist.

All of them have blood-curdling screams.

It’s as if their congregations all have hearing aids.

They’re hypocritical Pastors spreading hatred against

women, gay people, minorities, and people of other faiths.

We also have hate-filled right-wing talk radio.

These radio shows spread COVID-19 denialism.

and dismissed government recommendations

for safety in fighting against the pandemic.

They didn’t care about killing off their listeners.

These right-wing hosts take their marching orders

from the corporations that own the radio stations.

Conservative politicians will fight tooth and nail,

to keep these shows and to save AM radio.

That is because the same corporations own them.

They love the hate from radical pastors

and talk radio hosts as it keeps Americans divided.

AM talk radio is dumbing down the voters

and helping stupidity become a virtue.

These politicians use the smokescreen

that we all need AM radio

for emergency alerts that might come up.

I guess they have never heard of cellphone popups.

Considering, that Wolfman Jack is dead

and Rush Limbaugh is now in Hell,

there really is no future for AM radio.

The fact is that the millennial generation

has never even heard of AM radio.

Politicians claim getting rid of AM radio,

could lead to a snowball effect.

What will be next on the chopping block they pontificate.

Hopefully, it’s getting Country Music off the airwaves.
