Do you want to know one of the lessons I’ve learned from watching my father progress with Alzheimer’s? Let’s start with the fact that he and my mother were supposed to be enjoying their retirement. They wanted to travel all over, maybe move out west or up north, get a nice single floor home in […]
Death of a Nemesis
You know those people who touch our lives? No, no. Not the ones who touch us. That’s a whole different blog. I mean the ones who touch our lives in a non-physical sense. But even beyond that. I mean the ones who touch our lives in a non-physical sense who we wish would go touch […]
Halloween H20 + CiSO4 = CuSO4*Too Many Bad Halloween Sequels
Ah, there’s nothing quite like Halloween season, a time when most wimpy people I know actually stop complaining when I pull a horror movie out to watch. Now, mind you, I only bring out the best discs when I have company; “The Howling 2”, “Dracula 3000”, “Jaws: The Revenge”, “Amityville 3”, “I Still Know Who […]
The Hilarity of Stupidity
I witnessed two events last week that deserve to be pointed out, documented and thoroughly enjoyed by the masses. Honestly, I live for this crap because if I wrote and put it in a book, nobody would believe that it actually happened. You know the kind I mean, right? The kind that when you get […]
My Reading With Psychic Sylvia Browne
Right, so some of you posted or e-mailed some curiosity aimed at the reading I had yesterday with uber-psychic Sylvia Browne. I figured rather than respond to random questions, I’d simply type up a bit of the information that was shared with me. Now, for those of you who think it’s all a bunch of […]
Muffy The Slipper Slayer–An Evening At Kohl’s
Why is it that the simplest things so often turn into the most complicated ordeals? Seriously. It’s like somebody in some little office somewhere referred to in hushed conversations as “the Controller” has a hard-on for some of us. What makes it worse is I pretty much hate leaving home and dealing with certain areas […]
Having A Good One…At A Funeral
My father is not necessarily one who has ever jumped on the bandwagon when it comes to socially linguistic trends. He never came up to me while in my early teens and said: “Oh, my God. You’re like totally wearing that shirt with those parachute pants? That’s like so gross! Totally gag me with a […]
Bang Your Head (Mental…Not Metal…Health)
There’s been quite a bit of holiday banter going on and I thought I’d share a few things that happened to me during Christmas and New Years for no other reason than because I can!
The Ugliness We Should Never Have To See
I enjoy horror films. They’ve been an adrenalin rush, a curse, a healthy jolt and recently, again, something quite ugly. Let me go back in time for a moment. A co-worker and fellow horror film fan ushered me over to his cube one day about four years ago and said he had something to show […]
Annoying People Should Not Discuss DVDs…and a Question
Annoying people should not be allowed to say anything about DVDs, have an opinion about them or be allowed to express an opinion about them. They just shouldn’t. Enter today’s little tale.
