Pictures of things I take that don’t fit into any of the specific categories.

House modification, January 2020 update

This was a bigger pain in the ass to install than the directions made it seem. I was lucky to have my friend Kathy pitch in because it took four hands to juggle the part on the inside of the … Continue reading

So much for a modest plate of sushi

The menu tricked me! The way it was presented this option, I thought I would be getting a plate of a dozen pieces. Instead they delivered the WWII battleship Yamato to my spot. I think it was around 30 pieces. I had … Continue reading

I need this for my car!

Sadly, this quote and its attribution are very, very true. Quick confession about me and cars. When I was a little kid, I loved Hot Wheels and Matchbox toy cars like all my age in the Seventies. I wanted a … Continue reading

Pasta found in the Netherlands that’s special!

As you can see from the label, whenever you buy this brand/package of pasta, you must give five ravioli to me. I prefer them to be cooked and covered with an Alfredo sauce. A chicken-based broth is acceptable too. In … Continue reading

Heinz stole Hoser’s idea!

One odd habit my best friend José had in college was dipping his fries in a mix of mayonnaise and catsup/ketchup (I don’t care which). He really liked it too. He’d fill up a salad bowl with this gross concoction! … Continue reading

Congratulations to T-Shirt Hell for this great joke!

This is my equivalent of putting up a tree

I don’t have to worry about any cats trying to climb the tree. It’s portable. It’s easy to put away when the season is over (January 6). I’m also amazed at how the LEGO employee(s) forged the design from dozens … Continue reading

This bumper sticker saves money and the environment!

It’s so brilliant, you want to kick yourself for not coming up with it first!

Some overdue levity and cheer and mudita

Alright alright alright. No, don’t say it like Matthew McConaughey. I’m just posting something a tad nicer after my rather heavy screed on how Kapitalism gets a pass in America. This was pretty inspiring to see on someone’s minivan around … Continue reading

Which one is the pyramid scheme that rips you off?

The answer……BOTH! Last weekend, I went to a little toy convention at the makeshift convention space in what used to be Northcross Mall and these two operations where in other halls on a Saturday. Hey, at least my money went … Continue reading

Frozen II Chucks arrive!

Frozen is one of the weakest animated movies Disney has made in a long time because the story isn’t terribly interesting, original nor worthy of repeat viewings. The music is even worse, “The Let It Go” song is sooooooo shitty … Continue reading

Halloween 2019: the LEGO® avatars and guests!

I went with Where’s My Pants‽ Guy. Co-Worker/Friend Holly is Elvira. This year’s guests are a couple bootlegs I scored this Summer: Spider-Ham and The Mask. Then there’s a possessed waitress from LEGO’s new The Hidden Side sets and Captain Phasma … Continue reading

Miniature Willie Nelson spotted…

…he could always be that short since it’s often the reality with celebrities. Nah, this good-natured little guy humored us grown-ups as the Red Headed Stranger of the Hill Country. The only thing he lacked to be accurate was some weed.

Phil Lynott once met Mayor McCheese…

…and that’s about it. Sometimes random pictures from the Seventies just write themselves when it comes to whacky crap that happened! I think the funnier part is how sober Phil looks. Originally slated for : October 24, 2019 – 8:03 … Continue reading

A necklace in the spirit of October!

I couldn’t put off National Pizza Month off entirely once I scored this necklace at Waterloo Records and gave it to my co-worker (maybe even a friend) Holly. More will be explained with this nice person in time. We both … Continue reading
