This month’s über-nerdy header
June 1981 is when I really plunged into Dungeons & Dragons, or as the world has come to know it…D&D. There was a prologue to my 40-yeard-old hobby. After Xmas Break 1980-81, there was a new kid in my seventh-grade … Continue reading
The overdue explanation for May 2021’s Header
While I await the green light to bring Agamemnon home; I did receive a call at 6 AM today with an update that was optimistic, he thanks you all in his odd way; I want to explain the weird “blob” … Continue reading

Here’s to the future that was!
One of my favorite Adult Swim shows from the initial launch is March’s header. I held off celebrating the crew’s misadventures to now because a vaccine rollout (January) and Chinese New Year (February) were more pressing…or would it be relevant. If … Continue reading

Happy Groundhog Day 2021 and the Header
Some say nostalgia is a (mind)trap. I guess, but only if you dwell there forever and constantly long for it, aka Classic Rock or Jay Gatsby. I still let myself have an hour to remember how much this day in … Continue reading
The header for January 2021 is pretty on target!
It’s a form of rejoicing that there’s finally vaccine and what’s due in all our near futures. However, I’m still annoyed at how inept the distribution is being handled. Jennifer is a nurse and was promised to receive the first … Continue reading

OK December
The last month of this crappy, crappy year has arrived which puts us into the home stretch. Matters are looking up for 2021: two vaccines appears to have a 94% success rate, Orange Foolius was soundly defeated (he’s also 1-34 … Continue reading
So, November, you’re here
I’ve never been a big fan of Thanksgiving anyway because it became a crappy family gathering for me when I got to high school (when I began to realize they’re psychopaths and selfish). Throw in a horrible election which probably … Continue reading

Howdy October 2020
I remember certain people saying we’d return to some sense of normality by now. Did I believe it? Well…I was probably guilty of some return with limitations but I don’t think America is anywhere close as we’ve lost over 200,000 … Continue reading
Now comes September 2020
This is always an ambivalent month. When you’re a kid it sucks because Summer Vacation is over and you need to return to prison which is how you feel with grade school and to some extent, high school. Meanwhile, you … Continue reading
Half way through 2020!
To cheer us all up, I decided make my header one of the best movies ever made in the Eighties. Hell, it’s so perfect, I can’t think of a single complaint about it. On July 3, 1985, Back to the … Continue reading

The month’s header
Twenty-five years ago, my first great Summer in Austin got rolling. The year before sucked for my new home and as for the other years, I would say I hadn’t had a really decent Summer since 1991. To be fair … Continue reading
Welcome May and this month’s header
Onward to what will probably be our second full month of being in the Pandemic Shirt Storm so what better Header is there than a Horror movie! May 2020 is also the 40th anniversary of the Friday the 13th series. Now … Continue reading
Welcome April…I guess
I often look forward to April 1st but given the Pandemic of 2020 along with all the economic fallout; holy crap! Three-plus million unemployment filings recently. It this Recession doesn’t defeat Orange Foolius, America is definitely a nation of stupid, … Continue reading
Welcome March 2020
We’re one sixth of the way through 2020 but the impending awfulness called the American Election Season carries on. The South Carolina Primary had mixed results for me. Although Sen. Foot-in-Mouth wasn’t eliminated nor Mayor Buttplug, Sen. Cockblocker and Mayor … Continue reading
Welcome the Year of the Rat for February 2020!
Of course I know that Chinese New Year was on January 25 this year but it’s traditionally around February in the West because we don’t use a Lunar-based calendar needing a special month every few years to prevent July feeling … Continue reading
