The process of transforming a chicken to “chicken” is one I don’t do often enough to get blasé about. Having raised and cared for each of these birds for years, it offends my inner SJW. I feel like a bad … Continue reading →

Professor Irwin Corey, RIP. I confess this is one of those situations where I reacted “I didn’t know he was alive.” He was pretty much a one-trick pony, but the trick was kind of funny.

Though as I’d previously implied I have sort of a complicated relationship with country music, This Right Here is why I always made an exception for Emmylou Harris.

I can do it. I’ve done it several times now. But not often enough to get used to it, and the wind-up to the act always makes me feel like a bad person. But it’s past time to clean out … Continue reading →

I eat a lot of Spam*, courtesy of Big Brother. Courtesy of Big Brother, I’ve got enough Spam squirreled away to get me through quite a long stretch before I’m reduced to eating tourists. But I do confess sometimes a … Continue reading →

Study: 9 In 10 Antifa Protesters Still Living In Mom’s Basement Nice sign, though. Mama whip that up for you? Stuck as I am here in Gaia’s Attic, I’m having an increasingly difficult time sorting the fake news from the … Continue reading →

So Monday morning I met D&L for our regular water-and-grocery run, and D said, “I’ve got a couple of shirts you can have if you want.” D is a tall, lanky guy, wears a shirt substantially bigger than my usual … Continue reading →

…in December 2010… It was halfway through the car ride when Landlady said, in that tone one uses to broach a possibly sensitive subject; “So…I notice you brought a rifle case?” “Okay,” I said, “I know I’m being silly. It’s … Continue reading →

So I guess the environmentalist protest against that big pipeline in North Dakota broke up, and – this will completely shock you – it sort of created an environmental crisis. PHOTOS: Mountains of trash left by ‘environmentalists’ after pipeline protest … Continue reading →

Which is why I taped over the sumbitch. It was creeping me out. And I felt a little embarrassed when I did that, a little primitive. But Claire reminds us that when your “smart” gadgets can report on you, they … Continue reading →

Gosh. Now I feel kind of bad about it. I’ll have to work on figuring out how black people would be better off if the Falcons had won. Isn’t Arthur Blank still a Jewish guy? I thought it was supposed … Continue reading →

I really need to figure out how to score a new rear door latch. Not the first time this has happened on a steep grade. Kinda hard on the bottles. The ladies had a good day, though… 16! Okay, they … Continue reading →

“The Money Is Handled.” I’ve been promising the Jeep new tires for several years now. The ones he’s got are at least twelve years old that I know of. At least two years ago Claire sent me $300 to kick-start … Continue reading →

So it seems there’s yet another “company” promising a flying car just aaaany day now. Kids, I’ve been hearing that since my first E. E. Smith novel. And you wanna do it how? One of the drawbacks of this technology … Continue reading →
