Fear Its Self

Fear Its Self

Okay, whatever you do, don't look now, just be cool and keep walking, but I think somebody's following us...I dunno, just chill, walk a little faster, we'll be alright...Dude I told you not to look...ssshhh...I know he's a big white dude - and unless he's a big blind dude he just saw you turn around...

Respect Your Elders

Respect Your Elders

I've recently gone and done something that has left most everyone that knows me in a state of stunned, disbelief. I would have to imagine that many of you envision the Boneman as a somewhat funny, but mostly fuddled old skeeze, transgressing his way through life - a mere bus collision away from eter... [More]

Night Terrors

Night Terrors

This one is dedicated to the memory of St. George Carlin. His albums were the soundtrack to my adolescence and, next to Richard Pryor, he was the second greatest stand-up comic of all time. His passing brought with it the sobering realization that more and more the heroes of my generation are the on... [More]

What About B.O.B?

What About B.O.B?

In the days following the horrific 9/11 attacks we Americans were pretty freaked out. Once we'd learned who was responsible we were hoppin' mad and spoiling for a fight. Patriotism was riding as high as Old Glory and, had I told you "at the time" that in less than 8 years, the President of the Unite... [More]

That Certain Part of a Man's Body

That Certain Part of a Man's Body

Don't worry - I'm not gonna go off on another long-winded election rant. I was just wondering if Bill Clinton likes it when other prominent politicians get caught with their pants down like he used to do so prolifically. Does it make people forget about Monica and the gals or does it just refresh o... [More]

No Country For Old Men

No Country For Old Men

By now, I guess I can safely take another swipe at the presidential campaign. It's down to three and, at this point, even if Hillary had lost Texas or Ohio I get the impression she's in this thing 'til the bitter end. Let's face it, those Clintons want their old house back. And if worse comes to sho... [More]

Obama Nation

Obama Nation

You may have noticed if you've read any of my recent articles that I've become a kinder gentler Boneman. I find that I can function nearly as well without the cuss-words, but on the other hand, like many Americans, I've had it up to my "waste elimination apparatus" with political correctness. The fa...

Fake The Season Bright

Fake The Season Bright

With each passing year, the Christmas season creeps ever closer to the Christmas season before. I believe at this rate, if the world were to survive Global Warming, Armageddon or Nuclear Annihilation and make it another hundred years – by the time 2107 rolls around there would be no point in ever ta...

Anybody Else Got a Complaint?

Anybody Else Got a Complaint?

In the last issue of the Independent the editorial staff published a complaint leveled at an article that I wrote 5 months ago entitled "Losing My Religion." The plaintiff, "a California Woman just passing through," expressed brief and general offense at my playful treatise on the Pope's not-so-rece... [More]

Pink Side of the Moon

Pink Side of the Moon

Come on now? If you're reading this article having not read my conversation with Uncle Bone, let me quickly preface this odd tale of horror and disgrace with a quick introduction. My name is Maddy Bonham, again I'm the Boneman's niece and if you were a follower of this column in years past then it's... [More]

Back in Black (Really New)

Back in Black (Really New)

Though many of you are unlikely to remember me, I was once a semi-regular player on this team. I was all of 15 years old, in fact, when Uncle Bone first threw me out there to pinch hit for him. Sure, I was nervous and intimidated – kind of a Little Bo Peep running with the big dogs, but my life was... [More]

A God Fearing Man

A God Fearing Man

From the time I was 10 years old I've been afraid of Jesus. I say this for two reasons. First of all, from a journalistic standpoint, it's one of those great "attention grabbing" openers that I probably would've learned all about had I studied journalism. You'll note about now that you're still read... [More]

Losing My Religion NEW!

Losing My Religion NEW!

Recently Pope Benedict XVI - the leader of the Catholic church - made a rather remarkable move. He decided to get rid of Limbo. Poof, it's gone, just like that - no longer exists. No big deal really - it just means that over a billion people will have to change what they believe about life after dea... [More]

Easter Bone-ette (NEW)

Easter Bone-ette (NEW)

This Easter saw the Bone-domain crowded with a regular hutch of rug-rats. Cousins in numbers odd and even converged ‘til every last couch and sleeping bag was pressed into service. It was a pretty good time considering that most of them stayed 3 days. Though I'll admit that there were a few times wh... [More]
