April 17, 2025 For many years Friday has been my favorite day of the week–because that’s when Bill Maher’s talk show, Real Time, comes on. I have mentioned him frequently in The Doctor’s Inn because I admired this socio-political firebrand who seemed courageous when speaking truth to power. Though he invited the Left and the […]
April 13, 2025 The US Empire is in its death throes and ready to take the world with it. When US sneezes—the world quakes. Before getting into the topic—I must apologize to my readers for my spotty production over the past few months. I have been putting out “nuggets” on The New Doctor’s Inn which
March 22, 2025 I am still reeling at the fact that this man, Donald of Orange, will potentially be coloring my last years on the planet. Since 2016 – when he won the Republican primary and the presidency – he has been the focus of The Doctor’s Inn…that’s 9 years so far – with another

February 27, 2025 Now I know why Trump admires Putin and Kim Jong-un so much! It’s because they’ve held onto power for a long period of time: Putin since 1999 (26-years-or-so) and the Kim Dynasty for three generations since 1948 (a 77-year reign).

February 14, 2025 Awhile back, when Kiwi Phil still worked at Rosenthal, I learned that the wine tasting room was on a coveted piece of real estate — and that developers were interested in transforming the rustic Malibu beachfront area (Topanga Canyon and PCH) into a chic Newport/Laguna/San Clemente/Dana Point-type waterfront–that would draw many more
January 20, 2025 To the delight of many-a-White South African – US swears in a racist president today! For 47 years-or-so – the practice of apartheid made South Africa the pariah of the world. The international eye really got focused on South Africa and apartheid when the Vietnam War ended. With nothing left to protest,

December 18, 2024 …join ’em! This title doesn’t mean that I’ve joined the Trumpsters — it simply means that I will respect the will of a somewhat slim majority of voters who would prefer a scoundrel telling them what to do rather than a woman of color wearing the presidential pants! Don’t get me wrong!

Begun on November 11, 2024… With acknowledgement to all of our dearly departed service men and women. Well, judging by this year’s election results — I suddenly find myself in the minority — so I think I shall leave off of political discourse — as over half the country wanted the Donald (despite his many

October 30, 2024 (November 5th looms) …Lost in a Roman wilderness of painAnd all the children are insaneAll the children are insaneWaiting for the summer rain, yeah… …sang Jim Morrison in The End.

October 3, 2024 Since I last looked at this attempt — Israel pulled off a rather brilliant attack on hezbollah — which will unfortunately negate a peaceful solution to the conflict, and, which killed a number of innocents. Not for the first time. Iran responded and has now made itself fair game. Oh yes, Donald
