5 Minute Post

I have five minutes to post something on this blog. My alarm clock didn’t go off correctly, and so it has left me without the time I need to do the things I want to before I go to work.
Speaking of that alarm clock, it has been driving me crazy.  My regular one broke [...]

A Question

If you will permit me to, I would like to ask you a question. This very well may be another “every day’ question that in the long run means absolutely nothing to your life, along the lines of “How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie roll pop?” [...]

Bothered by Animal Deaths

This weekend, the Kentucky Derby horse Eight Belles was euthanized after breaking two front legs during the race.  I’m not an animal activist, but it does bother me that an animal died solely as the result of human amusement.

7 Random Facts About Me

At the behest of my wife, after she read a similar post on our friend Renee’s blog, I am writing these 7 random facts about myself.

I was once a member of a black gospel choir. (If you’ve never seen me, you can’t appreciate the humor in this. Just think overweight white guy with [...]

New Look

I changed themes once again, but I’m hoping to stick with this one for a while. The last theme change, which was to the Kubrick theme, was dictated by the fact that my old Barthelme theme wouldn’t handle some widgets that I wanted to use.
