everyone is entitled to my own opinion

By Jeff Tiedrich

I read the news today, oh boy

Jeff has a brand of "in your face" humor that is very close to my own, and, personally, I can't stop laughing whenever I read his publications and his rants about current events and politics. Whether he's your cup of tea, too...I don't know. However, if you like to laugh...and who doesn't....I think he's your guy.
