Pundits

UncategorizedGrumpy0

I’m WLHA self-appointed editorial director Grumpy Old Dan Smith and here’s what makes me grumpy: Pundits. What’s a pundit? Way before cable news, pundits were respected teachers and leaders. Today, pundits are the people who get to the megaphone first.  Pundits and news organizations go together like peanut butter and jelly. They need each other. Social media has allowed pretty much anyone to become a pundit. Now along with Sean Hannity, Al Sharpton and the president, you can see and […]

Clarity

UncategorizedGrumpy0

Not sure what but this kiosk says something about the information age. I’m not that smart to know exactly what. Maybe it’s just that sometimes I feel like a crowded kiosk held together by staples. There’s gotta be a Grateful Dead poster deep in there somewhere.

Political ads

Radio EditorialGrumpy0

As we get closer to November, we’re going to hear them on the radio, TV, social media, robo calls, the newspaper and on and on and on. This must work. Otherwise, why would people spend so much money producing them. Maybe instead slick, Hollywood produced TV ads we make candidates use only crayons and constructions paper. But here’s what concerns political advertisers the most: It’s estimated that almost half of us, 50%, ignore them in what’s become known as marketing […]

Nose Mask

UncategorizedGrumpy0

Try this nose mask to amuse people (except my wife, who thinks I’ll get arrested). Just shove a rag in your mouth and you should be as safe as a vice-president at a photo-op.

Quarantined Celebs

Radio EditorialGrumpy0

I’m WLHA’s self-appointed editorial director Grumpy Old Dan Smith and here’s what makes me grumpy: Quarantined celebrities. They were bad enough in the good old days but in the quarantined days they’re even more annoying. Do you really want to watch Justin Bieber romp around his house in a onesie? Or how a peek into Selena Gomez’s bathroom? Or maybe watch Pink cut her own hair while she’s drunk? This is the new normal? Don’t you long for the pre-Covid […]

Golf

Radio EditorialGrumpy0

What a dumb game. Golf was invented by the Scotts and given to the Irish as a joke. The Irish don’t think it’s funny—but they still play the silly game. Golf is a game you should play if you’re looking for humility. If you want perfection, look for another hobby. If you want the humiliation of hitting your ball in the water, the embarrassment of burying it in a sand trap or the shame of losing your life savings by […]

Mop on hole 4, please

UncategorizedGrumpy0

Glad to see Costco allows carts…they help people who otherwise could not shop there. Now how about the golf courses allowing carts? Otherwise I won’t be able to humiliate myself playing this stupid game.

Next on number 1…

UncategorizedGrumpy0

Great news that the golf courses will open later next week here in Wisconsin. Those that decide these things should really consider golf carts as well. One of the great things about this stupid game is you can punish yourself well into your 80’s (as my friend John is doing here with the deer) if you can use a cart. I’ll take one good reason for not allowing carts. I may be able to do without a beer cart for […]

Good For You

Radio EditorialGrumpy0

Here’s what makes me grumpy. People who know what’s good for you and you know exactly who I’m talking about. People who correct your language—like we were born knowing the difference between farther and further. People with unsolicited health information: “You need to add turmeric to your frosted flakes.” People who can fix your golf game: “Remember when putting, keep the ball close to the ground?” I have a theory that if we all did what we’ve been told throughout […]
