Cart Wars ep IV A New Dope

A long time ago in a food mart far far away… Actually, it was about a month ago and the grocery was only about five blocks up the road. But that doesn’t sound cool at all. The thing is I was involved in an extremely tragic incident and I wanted to give it the seriousness …

Bikini Season

I saw my first bikini of the season today. It was pink with large blue flowers strategically placed in completely inappropriate places. I’m blushing just thinking about it.

Winter Blues and Cookies

We have once again arrived at the absolute worst time of the year. The time when the melancholy doldrums of January and February set in, and the life of many a happy man, run into pure sadness.

Snack Crisis

I was at the store, the other day, when I found myself in the snack aisle. I probably shouldn’t say, I found myself. In point of fact I never lost myself. I was always right here, and the other day, ‘here’ just happened to be the snack aisle. Actually, I hasten to add, the only thing …
