I choose you Jake-a-chu!

Jake’s shape-shifting ability would explain how he fits into the little red and white ball the human carries around. Another cool Adventure Time mashup from Teefury and thanks Kristin for thinking of me. Now to retire a shirt or two … Continue reading

Princess had another batch of kittens

The irresponsible neighbors’ cat gave birth again which would explain why Princess greeted me at the door recently for some food. Her offspring from a few months around have been poking around too. Panthra is missing so I fear she … Continue reading

Happy 14th birthday Nick!

Editor’s Note: This did take place on 11/28/12 but I still wanted to plug Nick’s birthday on my site because 14 is a special birthday in my mind. My Chicago-based nephew hit the big 1-4 today! Sure at 13 he’s … Continue reading

One fifth of the way there!

At the current pace we’re going, we’ll own my side of the bed (30%) within eight years. Actually, it’ll be sooner as the interest part of the mortgage declines and over the upcoming months, it should accelerate a bit. Good … Continue reading

“Scoring” with trivia at D&B

Editor’s Note: About half-way through the Lost Tales section. I just needed to get a quick disclaimer done over this funny encounter since it took place in November, not the date this will be posted. It’ll be moved to its … Continue reading

Picayune is pending a data recovery for another week

As awful as “Spock’s Brain” is, the image of McCoy getting bombarded with the knowledge is the most appropriate representation of what’s happening with my site right now. The Enterprise had better luck than me since Spock was back to … Continue reading

Black Friday without NHL hockey bites

It was deja vu circa 2004 thanks to a terrible commissioner and inept, greedy owners. Many owners have changed since those awful days (Lightning, Coyotes, Stars, Blues and Ducks come to mind) but the short-sighted mindset hasn’t. The day after Thanksgiving … Continue reading

The 20th anniversary of the WMAG cassettes

My dabbling with podcasts has happened in fits and starts, I readily admit that.  A lack of time was the biggest problem followed by my biggest gripe with music CDs…their audio levels are not always consistent, especially if they were … Continue reading

Congratulations to Jeremy and Kristin

They tied the knot in Hawaii while attending a family reunion. I can never remember which side of Jeremy’s large clan it’s with, the dude has so many siblings and cousins. We knew they were going to make it official … Continue reading

Digging out, all is still alright

Last week was a complete bust in so many ways. Taking Somara to the ER and having her hospitalized for over a day was one thing, then coming down ill on my own. It is rather irritating to get sick … Continue reading

Had to take Somara to the hospital, all is well

This is a post to inform those who don’t follow me via FaceBook (I’m not fond of), I also don’t use Twitter that much due to the lack of “followers;” I’m seriously thinking of removing it from my iPhone because it … Continue reading

Argo: Worth Seeing

Two years ago I saw what was actually Affleck’s sophomore attempt, The Town, I made the mistake of thinking it was his directing debut. Regardless, I said I would give his next movie a try because the cliche-ridden bank-robbery movie demonstrated … Continue reading

Posts will be coming later now that the election is over

My anxiety always has risen to painfully crippling levels during election years ever since 2000…thank you Florida for not embarrassing us again. And yeah, my guy won so I’ll be flipping some virtual birds at certain people on FaceBook. Somara’s … Continue reading
