Flyers To The Left Of Me, Pamphlets To The Left, Rode The 600

This may surprise many of you, and I hesitate to mention it due to the panic it may cause. Wow isn’t that a great beginning? I’m not sure what I should do. If I keep quiet and don’t tell, then I’ll have to come up with a new topic for this post. On the other …

Happy B-Day From The Bottom Of My Wallet

Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday Mr. Ohh!, Happy Birthday to mmmeeeee, and many more. You are welcome to send all the expensive presents you want, but in truth it is not my birthday. It’s the day I celebrate my birthday. Perhaps an explanation is in order. You see in my …

POT out of LUCK

Oh Joy! It’s summer and we get to go to family picnics again. I just can’t wait for that first tasty bite of some mayonnaise laden macaroni concoction, especially after it’s be sitting in the ninety-degree sun for two to three hours. I mean, I haven’t had food poisoning in almost mine months now. If …

Spring; A Time For Baseball, Flowers, And Insurance

Spring has sprung. The grass is riz. I wonders where the flowers is. My mother, from the back woods, taught me this little poem oh so many years ago. It is of course far from the truth. A college educated man of the world, like myself, knows exactly where the flowers is. Or, are as …

Help! I Have Been Overthrown By A Coup

“I read the news today, Oh Boy!” This is the first line in the Beatles tune A Day In the Life. As with many of their songs from that part of their career, the rest of the song makes very little sense. And Oh Boy, did John Lennon ever get that part right. The news …

When Did My Daughter Turn In To A Girl

There is a song, in the Broadway musical Fiddler On The Roof, called Sunrise Sunset. No, it’s not about global-warming. Why does everything have to be about global-warming these days? I mean… Oh wait, I was talking abut the song. The song is a very sensitive melody about how the years fly by as your …

I’ve Been Through The Family On A Horace With No Name

Do you ever listen to older music? Specifically, I’m talking about The Beatles. If you don’t you should, they’re really, really good. Anyway, the specific song I’m referring to is John Lennon’s Come Together. In this tune, amongst several strange and meaningless lines like, “He shoot Coca Cola” and “He got choo-choo eyeballs” is the …

Skilled In The Ancient Art Of Plot Convenience

Here’s a good TV show Idea: Macgyver, a loose Cannon. walks into a bar with some Friends, (I think it was called Cheers). He’s there to meet up with Mama’s Family, for some Good Times, to order Chips, and maybe pilfer the Silver Spoons. It was an Emergency that they discuss some Mission Impossible. Keeping …

I Promise To Love And Cherish You, But Not Share My Password!

I was listening to the radio yesterday when a strange article came on, talking about couples sharing each other’s passwords. That, in and of itself, is not terribly noteworthy. I listen to talk radio sometimes, and they are always putting up reports on strange subjects. I want that job. Not the radio job, although being …

Did He Really Say That??

We have all heard our parents say stupid things. My father’s favorite was to come up to me while doing homework and ask, “Working hard, or hardly working?” Then he’d laugh and walk away. I admit it was worth a giggle in the first grade, but by the time I was a senior in college …
