This may be just a little politically incorrect... Believe it or not, this all started at the water cooler. Water cooler talk is a time-honored American tradition, like paying women less than men for doing the same job, or telling your wife that you'd love to spend the day at the mall when, in fact,...

Invasion of the Bing Searches (in 3D)
Ever have one of those moments where you bring up Internet Explorer, type in a web address, and instead of taking you to the website it brings up a Bing search? You double-check your browser and see that, yes, you typed in the address correctly? Well, there must be something wrong with you because that has never... Continue Reading →
In Which We Fix Gov’t Transparency…
We here at MojoFiction recently decided to throw our hat into the presidential race. You probably saw the announcement on the popular cable news channel, C-SPAN 5 en Español. Anyway, with the NSA's advanced brain-scanning techniques (what, you didn't know? Don't worry, they already knew that you didn't know), we have decided that complete transparency is the only way to go until they... Continue Reading →
MojoFiction Does the Masters
The last thing golf needs is more excitement. Right? If you've been watching the Masters this week at Augusta National Golf Club, you know what we're talking about. Between the internet cats hiding in Rae's Creek...: And the sand alligators: And the beautiful hole 12 in Amen Corner, aptly named "Venus Fly Trap": ...we think the Masters... Continue Reading →
CHICAGO: OFFICIAL CITY OF PEOPLE IN CHICAGO
We here at MojoFiction have been off the grid for several months now, and while we may or may not ever explain why, we knew we needed to come up for air when we saw this on the internet: Ah, corporate branding. Is there nowhere it can’t reach? Nothing it can’t do? These images above... Continue Reading →
On Racism
The only part I’m hazy about is the year. I think it was 1995. The location was the town of Warrensburg, Missouri, where I attended what is now called the University of Central Missouri. The town is not near Ferguson and the recent issues they've been having there, but at that time it was only... Continue Reading →
The King of Sports (a book review)
I categorized this book review under parenting for a reason. It belongs there. A large part of this book focuses on football in America in an academic setting – college and high school. It's valuable information that parent's should keep in their back pocket if they have kids interested in playing sports, especially football. On... Continue Reading →
Peyton Manning Lifts Us Up Where We Belong
WARNING!!! THIS ARTICLE IS SUPER-MANLY AND MAY RESULT IN CHEST HAIR AND THE COMPLETELY ACCIDENTAL THINKING THAT YOUR WIFE HAS NO IDEA WHAT A CIRCULAR SAW IS. (Normally, you wouldn't think that, but that's what happens when you're feeling manly. She knows this and so she's pretending she doesn't know what a circular thingywhatever is,... Continue Reading →
And Now: Breast Cancer Action Month
It’s National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and I am a little confused. Okay, I’m a guy, so maybe that helped. It started with one of those Internet Lists that websites love to put up because they get lots of clicks. This one was on MSN Health and was called: “15 Worst Things You Can Say to...

IN WHICH WE TRY TO FIX BASEBALL. …AND DONE.
We here at MojoFiction recently thought that maybe we should stop referring to ourselves in the plural. But don’t count on it. We have lots of thoughts, most often after a beer or two. Guess how often those come to fruition? Anyway, let’s talk baseball. Ah, baseball. America’s summer sport. We have loved baseball ever... Continue Reading →
