A useful discovery during Spring Cleaning!
Even before the Pandemic and America going on lockdown, I was going to engage in some reorganizing of the house. With it officially being mine entirely, there’s going to be changes but more importantly…serious cleaning. I decided to go with … Continue reading

Aggie singing in the window
Here’s a little serenading Aggie did while I came back from the mailbox. Hopefully he cheers you up for a bit during these crappy times.
1870: Texas re-enters the Union
If I remember my American History, Texas modified or rewrote its constitution to the satisfaction of Congress to regain its membership. With the “election” of Rutherford B. Hayes in 1876 (or 1877), it was all for naught as the GOP … Continue reading
Cookie Disaster, Mar. 2020 edition
I didn’t know there were many lighthouses in Florida. I often associate the structures further up the East Coast, usually the Carolinas and New England. Florida is more often known for the stupid things a “Florida Man” does with their … Continue reading

The remaining money arrived!
The lion’s share of the remaining re-fi money came through! The credit union already decided where it would go, mainly toward the joint credit card from my marriage and with the transition to one income…it was hard to nail down. … Continue reading
Let the kids join in the fun while you’re WFH
It’s cheaper than Zoom or other videoconferencing software and the futility of most meetings are still captured through this.

Sad to find out via Twitter that Curly of the Harlem Globetrotters passed away. He was definitely one of the iconic members during the peak popularity in the Seventies. Back then the Globetrotters were quite conspicuous: They first appeared on Scooby … Continue reading

Social distancing doesn’t apply to LEGO® avatars!
At least LEGO Steve and LEGO Debbie got to hang out, have some frozen treats from the new City line’s ice cream truck. It’s pretty similar to the pizza one but it has three big differences. The cool popsicle logo … Continue reading
On the upside, stuff is getting refunded or rescheduled!
Anything slated for the end of the month are in the crapper obviously. The only thing I was seriously looking forward to was seeing Brian Posehn at Cap City again with my new friend Debbie; she likes stand-up too. I … Continue reading
The money arrived!
Bugs playing the role of Brunhilde feels appropriate. The leftover money in the refinancing landed in my checking account! No sign of it on the debt being paid that the credit union-title company chose first. Either way, I’m going to … Continue reading
RIP Kenny Rogers
Such a bummer to hear this on NPR and during this debacle during the Stupid Ages. I hope Kenny was at peace since all the news stories said he had been ill. I had the great opportunity to meet Kenny … Continue reading
Meanwhile…on Rainey Street in Arlen, TX
Block captain Hank Hill was successful at maintaining his weekly beer drinking in the alley with his friends despite Dale thinking the coronavirus is a hoax via Alex Jones and Bill’s need for companionship. Sadly, a non-dickhole conservative like Hank … Continue reading
1980: Mount St. Helens
I made a slight error in making the volcano my Header. On this day in history is when Helens began to have activity which experts feared would be an eruption. A week later, there were small ones but the big … Continue reading
What’s filling up our e-mail inboxes
A satire regarding all those hollow, suck-up, mercenary e-mails from Corporate Amerika on how they, we, etc. are weathering the pandemic. Maybe they’re already jockeying for position on the money Congress and the White House may send out in the … Continue reading
