I’d better write about this subject while I still have a horse in the race. I have always had a great memory. Of course, the Domestic Despot Karen says I have a very selective memory. I beg to differ. It’s just getting worse. I can remember the most minute details of the most immemorable timesContinue reading “Memories”

Enough Already!
As a fan of the greatest football team on the planet, I have come to expect much more than what is currently passing as football at Old Trafford. Stinko. Today’s match at Watford has me wondering once again, what the hell is going on? Georgie Best is surely turning in his grave. I’ll tell youContinue reading “Enough Already!”
Birthday Cakes
I can only remember my early birthdays on faded little reels and browning pictures. Whether I was dressed as Zorro, or atop a pony reciting Shakespeare, the star of the whole show was definitely not me. It was the cake. I think when I was three or four I got this little gay gene goingContinue reading “Birthday Cakes”
Prom Night (s)
When I was in high school (four of them to be exact), I thought the prom was an annual thing. It was a time to drink and have sex. I went to four proms. Three with senior girlfriends and my senior year I brought my girlfriend who was no longer in high school. Some peopleContinue reading “Prom Night (s)”
TV Ads
I am watching a television ad and it is for a vacuum that claims to clean AND pick up invisible dust. Shite, pure and simple. This is a door-to-door salesman’s dream. He will no longer have to soil the carpet to prove anything (not soil the carpet himself, no). One of the tricks in thatContinue reading “TV Ads”
Law and Disorder
I am one who does not use this blog to influence anyone or air my own political beliefs. There is enough divisiveness in this country already. I like to have fun with this medium and share some cool stories and observances. I purposely stay away from making this a political forum. I can’t help butContinue reading “Law and Disorder”
The Best Advice I Never Took
During my infamous hot streak in the casinos of Las Vegas in 1977, I went on an unheard of four month winning streak that defied all odds. I mean I had been hot on a couple of occasions before and I pocketed a few hundred bucks along the way, but this was something altogether different.Continue reading “The Best Advice I Never Took”
Be Kind Yesterday
I am so ripped I just realized that TODAY Saturday, November 13th is World Kindness Day 2021. I am thinking back on how I was kind today. I did a lot of extra work around the house and being kind to Karen earns big dividends, although I am a pretty good partner as far asContinue reading “Be Kind Yesterday”
Squeaky Clean
I can’t stand to be dirty. Even if I don’t leave the house at all for the whole day, I will not be able to sleep or do much of anything if I don’t hop in the shower and dry off before hitting the sack. Back when I was slamming boilermakers by the double-barreled fistful,Continue reading “Squeaky Clean”
Obedience
The morning sun peeked over the pink mountains illuminating the entire valley. It was going to be another scorcher. The Yuki Valley could get that way for about six weeks out of the year, and it was eight days into it. One hundred degrees is hot anyway, but throw in seventy-five percent humidity,Continue reading “Obedience”
