Why Are Publishers Obsessed with Sequels?
About the librarian... I went to the library this week. Yea, this isn’t a very sideways way to start a post. In fact, if this post was about a trip to the library, I’d skip reading it, and I’m the one who wrote it. Then again, I could say the librarian was very cute, and …
The Perks of Being Smart: A Comedic Reflection
I'll did it, but why? Today, I want to stop, and thank all the little people who made me what I am. I don’t know most of you and probably never will. Frankly, I’m not sure why I’m thanking you in the first place. But they say, famous folks should stop and thank the little …

AI: The Good, The Bad, and The Baffling
It's baffling I’ve been watching a bunch of new car ads recently, and they’ve got me baffled. Admittedly, it doesn’t take much to baffle me. Frankly I’m pretty much baffled all the time. The world itself is baffling. About the only non-baffling joy I get in life is writing and saying the word baffle. Think …
It’s Not Like There’s A Law Or Anything!!
A trying begining Let me try to set the scene. I mean I’ll understand everything I say because I was there. Sadly, you weren’t, and may not understand my scene-setting techniques. Then again, I might not be very good this, and must take my share in the blame if the scene is not properly set. …
I Have Now Been Educated About Education!!
A question of pie I was watching a documentary about octopuses last week. Yes, I said octopuses not octopi. According to my college son, who in majoring in marine biology, this is the correct plural. So, don’t argue with me. This time I actually know what I’m talking about. So there. If you want to …
You’d Think Spending Money Would Be Easier Than This. ??
Mysterys of the universe There are many mysteries in this world of ours. Folks have been talking about the Loch Ness monster, Bigfoot, flying saucers, and the tiny creatures who steal single socks from the dryer for years. But there’s no solid proof. If fact, at this very moment, I have sixteen plastic bowls and …

If I Could Talk To The Animals… I’d Sure Give Them A Piece Of My Mind!!
I don't agree Comedian, Bobcat Goldthwait, is known to say, “Pets are our friends, but they can’t pick you up at the airport.” I emphatically disagree with this statement. No, for all the smart-alecks out there, I don’t believe they can pick you up at the airport. So there! But on the other hand, wouldn’t …

Subject To Change Without No… Freaking Intelligent Reason!!
Snow job Where I live it is currently snowing. Not bad snowing like, say the south pole. More annoying snowing which makes you dread leaving the house. But since you know how to drive in it, you go about your day swearing that someday you’re moving to a tropical climate like Guam. Then you realize …

Wisdom?? Not So Much!
On the job On my last job, which really isn’t worth remembering, I had a very gung-ho supervisor. She had a unique way of doing things. She would ask me to do an impossible task saying, “I never ask anyone to do anything I wouldn’t do myself.” That’s a terrible thing to say. If you’ve …
