Advent 2021 Beer #3
I think I’m going to need my friend José to help me out on this. Tonight’s beer didn’t taste as thick as the night before but the German’s aren’t winning me over using the word “hell” and a graphic reminding … Continue reading
A D&D Commercial that’s too on the nose
To be fair, I was this excited and filled with anticipation when I first got to play in seventh grade. The difference? I grew out of it because I was saddled as the Dungeonmaster as soon as I got … Continue reading
Advent 2021 Beer #2
I liked tonight’s beer much more. It seemed “thicker” than most I have ever had and this was definitely a weisse which I prefer. Well, Belgian whites are the best after being in Austin for 27 years. Therefore, I didn’t mind … Continue reading
The last symmetrical date of the century! 12-2-21
Now before you Europeans or wannabes correct me over the US’s better and more logical format, jokingly claiming this really happened in February, ask yourself…are we English speakers more likely to say, “December 2nd” or “the Second of December?” Yeah, I thought … Continue reading
Advent 2021 Beer #1
This year, Jennifer and I got the jump on Costco’s beer-advent calendar. Seems you have to buy it in the early Fall before they’re all swallowed up! Last year’s “wine” version from Aldi…sucked. I’m not sure if all the beer … Continue reading
Welcome to December 2021!
I decided to just “catch up” and fill in the missing dates in between, again, instead of being like that newspaper from Colonial Days in New England I learned about in college; The publisher only had so much space and … Continue reading
Tomorrow begins the “voluntary” winterization
While the GOP made sure they can dictate what women can do with their bodies, “urban dwellers” have a harder time voting and preventing children from learning the ugly truth about Amerika…they sure as hell didn’t do shit about the … Continue reading
Got my booster shot against CV-19 today
Not sure if the booster is making me tired, the long weekend or the aftermath of Daylight Savings Time ending. Just glad I had it done as Winter will kick in. Can’t get a flu shot though for about four … Continue reading

Why I never went to Larry Flynt’s house for Thanksgiving
It’s because his household never serves turkey and ham is more of a Christmas thing.
RIP Stephen Sondheim
I got into Sondheim late and before then, I was rather oblivious as to who the heck he even was or what was his material while it played in front of me! If you grew up in the Midwest and … Continue reading
Check out my Mandalorian forces!
Just in time for the upcoming Book of Boba Fett next month on Disney+. The one at the center left is wielding a generic sword, not the famous blacksabre Bo Katan needs to reclaim rulership over Mandalore. Thanks again to … Continue reading
Getting through the day
I’m at the half-way point of my day working. Beats being stranded at my parents’ house, bored out of my mind as I spent my teen and college years (sometimes). Other than the gluttonous meal, there wasn’t much else to … Continue reading
The Doctor has declared me “sane” for the holiday stretch!
It wasn’t as if the outcome was in doubt but I like to make sure I make my appointment with my doctor, let him know I am getting better. Better at powering through all the crap cold medicine throws my … Continue reading
As you can see, the Media fell for it again
In Austin, our local grocery store chain, HEB, is offering a free turkey if you buy a ham so as always, the GOP is full of shit as they let the world burn doing nothing until the off-year election cycle.
So begins one of my favorite, easy weeks at work!
Not well enough to hit the gym yet. Argh! I want to get a headstart on the bloaty meal we Americans are obligated to make and consume this Thursday. I’m pushing to get my weight down to 260 and complete … Continue reading
