Op-ed Category

Many years ago I walked into a bar to buy beer for a gathering; I needed four six-packs and it was the best place to go. Well I asked the bartender for my beers she said she could only sell me two six-packs, but that if I took those two to my car, I could [...]

I’ve made it pretty clear that I support Barack Obama for President. His personality and skill as a communicator have made it easy to do so. But after listening to his speech after winning the South Carolina primary, I have realized why I will support Obama for as long as I can - [...]

None of these are big enough to talk about in an individual post.  Interesting week:

A race war broke out this week between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, and the voice of reason turns out to be Jesse Jackson?  Of course, Hillary and Bill defended Bob Johnson at first - kind of disgusting.  Bob Johnson is [...]

I love my sister, but ewww!

Ok this has got to be the worst story of the year.  A husband and wife in England recently had their marriage annulled after discovering they were twins separated at birth.  I repeat: EWWW!  A couple of thoughts:

As Kristen pointed out, you’d think they’d have looked into this with both of them being adopted, both [...]

The rotting of America’s collective brain

For all you married people who need a date

In: Op-ed

Grace has been hearing ads for the Ashley Madison dating service on Stern.  There are a million dating services and they all have their twist - this one’s no different; it’s for married folk.  Wouldn’t you love to hear from Jerry Fallwell on this one - why’d he have to go and die on us? [...]

New Jersey: the land of gay men

In: Op-ed

I read a news story yesterday where New Jersey residents were polled about their sex lives and it turns out that men and women have much different numbers. Surprised? Apparently, 68% of men have had sex in the past year compared to 50% of women.
What do we gather from this? Either [...]

Endangered species: Christmas Cards

In: Op-ed

I noticed this Christmas a trend that gets worse every year - the Christmas postcards with nothing but a picture of a friend’s children and the words “Happy Holidays” or some other version of the same sentiment. A couple of years ago it was cute, now the majority of the cards we receive are [...]

About this blog

Ostensibly A Rubber Door is about anything that's on my mind. Mostly that seems to be about politics, music, sports, and arguing with others about all of the above. I took the name of this blog from a Michael Penn song called Me Around. Check out Michael - he's about the best singer/songwriter there is.
