You could say this sign is GOAT

Posted on January 31, 2022 by Steve

To many people, the sign says, “Don’t feed the goat,” but there are always unfortunate people whose brains won’t immediately put the icons together and conclude this. The most outrageous possibility will be, “Careful! This goat bites Italians (making their … Continue reading →

RIP Howard Hesseman

Posted on January 30, 2022 by Steve

Sad to see him pass. Glad I met him briefly at WizWorld with Lonnie Anderson. I could blame him partially for my bad career/college choices via Dr. Johnny Fever; I wanted to be a DJ or work in radio. It … Continue reading →

More Caturday and why pizza boxes have holes

Posted on January 29, 2022 by Steve

Look out Pizza Rat, here’s Pizza Cat! Actually, I do know why the boxes have holes, some of the heat has to vent out or else the pizza would be all sweaty. I could see one of Jennifer’s cats trying … Continue reading →

Operation Manhattan slips via Floor & Decor

Posted on January 28, 2022 by Steve

The jury remains out…for now, as I too work in the Customer Service field so I have sympathies with the other side which is really being put to the test tonight. My home remodeling has decided to happen at the … Continue reading →

1302: Dante expelled from Florence

Posted on January 27, 2022 by Steve

As many famous Italians artists of the Renaissance, we Americans only know the writer by Dante’s first name and are often stumped when asked, it’s Alighieri. The world also just knew him for his poetry but full-time writing came somewhat … Continue reading →

This month’s Astronomy joke

Posted on January 26, 2022 by Steve

Yes, I know. If a joke requires the recipient to think about it too long, then it’s either not funny or the audience is dumb. I side with the latter camp since everyone should know this regarding the famous constellation. … Continue reading →

Those who don’t learn from History…try to sanitize it

Posted on January 25, 2022 by Steve

I wouldn’t be surprised if these were the posters Youngkin circulated around Virginia to solidify the White Trash and Centrist (aka Polite Racist) votes. How I wish Jim Kelly (the star on the poster) were still alive, he would’ve been … Continue reading →

He’s everyone’s savior and wingman!

Posted on January 24, 2022 by Steve

He’s the only co-pilot I know who can magically pay with cash, grass or ass, the latter by calling in favors owed to him by Mary Magdalene. Jesus learned the hard way that nobody would give him a ride for … Continue reading →

1957: Wham-O produces the first Frisbees

Posted on January 23, 2022 by Steve

You’d think this toy had its origins in the Fifties as plastic was getting rolled out into the wonder substance for everything: toys, car parts, food storage, etc. Oddly, name comes from a baker in 1871 called The Frisbie Pie … Continue reading →

RIP Louie Anderson

Posted on January 22, 2022 by Steve

At least his career went out on a high note with Baskets on FXX. Now that the show has wrapped up, I need to watch it since local fave Martha Kelly was in it too. If you are a Gen Xer, … Continue reading →

YES! Operation Manhattan is back on track

Posted on January 21, 2022 by Steve

Today, I successfully refinanced my house for what I hope is the last time. There were a couple times to help pay off the debts via Somara’s student loans and to give her partial ownership. Then to punish Wells Fargo. … Continue reading →

Gen Con & San Diego Comic Con for Dumb Bros & Proud Boys

Posted on January 20, 2022 by Steve

I can already smell the horrible mixture of Axe Body Spray, Teslas and Failure. I’m not exactly sure the world needs more “Alphas” such as these clones. Obviously, the people behind this gathering in the Mormon Vatican have never read Brave … Continue reading →

Oh yeah, poor Cowboys were the only “upset”

Posted on January 19, 2022 by Steve

Of all the teams to lose to the wild card (49ers), it had to be them while the others had close calls but succeeded in advancing, damn it, can’t stand the Chiefs, especially their smug QB. On the upside, my … Continue reading →

Millenials can’t get a break with Boomers

Posted on January 18, 2022 by Steve

I can completely relate since I heard a similar litany spoken in 2000 when I was a younger person in the Eighties. Then the 2008 counterattack was “You didn’t listen to me and got a degree in something completely useless … Continue reading →

Fifty perfect weeks of exercise!

Posted on January 17, 2022 by Steve

This year is really going strong! I earned a perfect Exercise Week for the 50th time. Yeah, it’s not really that impressive. In many ways, all those little badges you can earn for achievements are the original NFTs!
