The most accurate and painful costume for 7 years running
She’s proving to be worse than Tricky Dick, especially when nobody wants her opinion on current events. And before all the knee-jerk accusations of misogynist, the standard play by the Blue MAGA; I also say the same things about Kissinger … Continue reading
Cars have “extra money” sensors!
The remainder of my RSU money pulled through this morning allowing me to buy a new portable! Oh this MacBook Air 2020 that took over as my primary for posting to Picayune and running my finances has been great, especially after … Continue reading
Oh crap! He’s back! We better look busy!
One of my favorite jokes to the “Jesus is coming!” shirts or bullshit. The other possible gag, “Run! It’s that douche who goes on and on about his father being Yaweh so we have to listen to his meandering, preachy … Continue reading
RIP Richard Moll
Richard was best known as Bull on Night Court and obviously before (and after) the hit Sitcom, he was often cast is giant bad guys or monsters or somebody intimidating. What fewer people knew, Richard also had a big career as … Continue reading
Day of the Dead
This was George Romero’s lesser known third installment of his Dead movies in which the social commentary isn’t as obvious; Night was racism, Dawn was consumerism and Day I think it’s how much we shouldn’t trust the military? You can tell it was an indie … Continue reading

Side effects may include liking Liza Minelli
I found this at Terra Toys’ coffee shop and it was quite good. Not sure if it was around back when the movie was originally released. Hollywood was still run by people with visions of making great films that made … Continue reading
1983: US forces “liberate” Grenada
The crap going down between Ukraine and Russia or Israel and Hamas is nothing to what happened 40 years ago. Sure, those two conflicts are ongoing but will they lead to nuclear war? Not easily. What St. Reagan did today … Continue reading
RIP Richard Roundtree
Sad to see Richard go. Obviously, most people will always remember him for starring in Shaft, the Blaxpoitation movie that got the genre really going in the Seventies. Its success even spilled over into other genres, namely in the co-lead … Continue reading
First a toll lane on MoPac, soon this…
You see, most Austin BMW owners bought this upgrade for their cars. It’s quite expensive and explains why most drive the models that don’t come with working turn signals.
By the Power of Propane!
I tell ya whut! Castle Greyskull is completely powered and heated by clean burnin’, energy efficient Propane. It is abundant in Arternia too. Now if you excuse me, I need to get back to defeatin’ my mortal enemy…no not Skeletor, … Continue reading

Give the gift of…well…eww…too personal.
This definitely puts the gag in gag gift! Unlike Fart in a Jar or I think some Influencer tried to bottle her gas, this isn’t a biohazard because it’s thankfully not real!
More Chaos! By demand
Before you ask, no, Chaos isn’t polydactyl nor does he have big paws, I took the photo while he was in the middle of making biscuits on the couch. After two days, he’s already sleeping on the bed with us, … Continue reading
Meet Chaos!
The long-awaited day arrived! Jennifer’s second kitten was ready to come to his forever home. His name is Chaos. Despite his “teenager” size, he is a kitten because Chaos is a Maine Coon, a domestic breed that gets pretty large. … Continue reading
1998: Auto-Tune makes its mainstream debut, blech!
Personally, I’m not surprised that Cher was one of the first to use this shitty crutch which has become a standard practice in sorry excuses for music and lazy comedy. The annoying, no-talent older sister of Madonna needed something to … Continue reading
RIP Dwight Twilley
Dwight wasn’t exactly a huge name in music, probably a contemporary of other names I could list right now in the singer/songwriter vein: Marshall Crenshaw, Graham Parker and Paula Cole. Maybe you recall his biggest hit with the general public, … Continue reading
