Funny shelf by my friend Matt
This very humorous and irreverent shelf was made by my friend Matt for his daughter so she can put special things on…or is it in…it, keep them out of reach of her baby brother. I love the extra touches like … Continue reading
New Chucks for May 2020, part 7
This is the second pair called Animal Prints. Which animal this should be, I’m not sure. I want to go with a giraffe but I think their pattern is blockier. It could be some type of big feline, again, no … Continue reading
New Chucks for May 2020, part 6
I think I have a pair in this shade of green but I wanted these for the cool pockets on the outside. They may come in handy if I’m at a show or being a tourist, hide some emergency money … Continue reading
The Star Wars shoes were a bust
I still remain hopeful that Converse and Disney will come together on official Star Wars Chucks since Frozen II appeared to be a success. For the interim, I tried out these knockoffs I found on the Internet. They turned out to be … Continue reading
New Chucks for May 2020, part 5
How long I have waited for a pair covered in sequins! This is pair numero uno which were in my size. Converse calls it snake skin. Based upon the color scheme, these are also appropriate for celebrating Christmas.
New Chucks for May 2020, part 4
Chinese New Year has been a pair I’ve been trying to score for years. I’m guessing the Pandemic killed the demand so I could swoop in to get these. Not sure how this represents the Year of the Rat but … Continue reading

Nothing but the Converse “All * Star” logo all over the place. Hard to believe these were on clearance.
New Chucks for May 2020, part 2
This pair falls under a design group Converse chose to call Animal Prints. As you can see, the shoes are supposed to resemble fish scales but it’s just printed into the canvas. Pretty cool in my opinion.
Letterkenney comes to Texas
Spotted this on a Texas-based car which means they know their Canadian comedy.
New Chucks for May 2020, part 1
Damned Converse and their 20% Off Sale in April. They knew May was going to be a three-paycheck month. On the upside, the 20% was in addition to shoes already marked on sale or clearance. I ended up making my … Continue reading
Last Easter joke until next year…Utini!
Thanks to Jawas appearing in early episodes of The Mandalorian, they confirmed what Threepio said about them…they’re disgusting creatures. Those creme eggs are gross!
All our pets are wondering this by now…
My older cat Isis is in complete agreement, the younger cat Agamemnon probably thinks this is normal.
At least they didn’t come from China
Given the incompetence of this administration, I wouldn’t be surprised if they thought this was a real offer nor would they get the reference.
But why is the recipient smiling?
This reminds me how behind (no pun intended) I am on getting my first colonoscopy. For once I’m grateful to the pandemic for providing the excuse for why I haven’t had it done!
Cookie Disaster, Apr. 2020 edition
OK, I did find something funny for April Fool’s Day via the HEB bakery when I was there before the Pandemic. Yeah…those are…uhh…balloons not trying to fertilize the cookie.
