Belated Valentine to you all from the Sunny gang!
Word-play, puns, whatever kind of joke this is, I love it! Given what a bunch of reprobates the characters from Sunny are makes this thing even funnier!
Wisconsin transplant?
Wrong breed of cow for Texas.
The winner is Agamemnon or Aggie for short!
The poll ran for about a month and it did better than the one for Isis, 21 votes! I owe it all to nagging the crap out of many people! As difficult as this Greek name is to pronounce (AG-uh-men-non), … Continue reading
Biden’s pivot!
This represents how Sen. Foot-in-Mouth is pivoting to prove he’s all things to all Democrats. Namely the ones too lazy to remember/research his shitty record in the Senate and/or those obsessed with the mythical “electability” needed to defeat Orange Foolius. … Continue reading
A better explanation for a poor makeup job
Recently, the wind kicked up on the White House lawn to expose the faux tan Orange Foolius has. He must have his toupee fastened on with Krazy Glue though.
UFCU keeps dragging ass
How I just wish the other shoe(s) would drop in my life. UFCU has now added the wrinkle of saying the underwriter wants the foundation repaired before going through. I explained politely to the intermediary that the underwriter is trying … Continue reading
Life is progressing, I think
Had a bit of a relapse with the cold and other crap because for some damned reason January gets me down and all somewhat. Nevermind that the first three days of February are always a triumph on many levels. I … Continue reading
RIP Robert Conrad
When I was growing up, Robert was the star of a short-lived WWII show called Black Sheep Squadron. It was loosely based upon the memoirs of Pappy Boyington, a fighter pilot in command of a Marine base. He was also pretty … Continue reading
The Rampage are moving to the Vegas area
After 18 seasons in San Antonio, my team’s I-35 rival for 11 seasons will be wrapping it up this Spring and then joining their new NHL parent, the Golden Showers…I mean Knights. It’s interesting to have a team in Sin … Continue reading
Life with cats, Feb. 6, 2020 edition
Now with two cats in my house (update on “Sean Connery” will be coming), I get double the showings, ugh. Thanks to my new friend Debbie for this gag which probably has been around for a while, I just tend to … Continue reading
RIP Kirk Douglas
He really hung in there! Not to be flippant or crude but I thought he already passed away like in the Aughts. Kirk did bring us a slug of good movies that I often caught on TV: Spartacus, The Vikings and Paths to … Continue reading
The American farce continues to sink into patheticness
Everybody knew what the outcome was going to be from day Orange Foolius was installed by the overrated Alexander Hamilton system, the other patron saint of dictators…Plato is their primary god. To anyone who’s a Republican and/or Libertarian, don’t you … Continue reading
Twenty-six years in Austin!
Cripes! Where did it all go‽ One day I was driving through a light rain, listening to KNAC, trying to find University Towers. Now I’m middle aged, divorced but gladly a home owner. Still beats living in areas with Winter; I’d … Continue reading
Mac Blake caused the name change
I don’t know if this moving company has franchises in other cities but this one has been a staple around Austin for about a decade. They used to be named “College Hunks Moving Junk.” Then the word “Hunks” was transformed … Continue reading
Welcome the Year of the Rat for February 2020!
Of course I know that Chinese New Year was on January 25 this year but it’s traditionally around February in the West because we don’t use a Lunar-based calendar needing a special month every few years to prevent July feeling … Continue reading
