For those of you who aren't me…and I've noticed a surprisingly large number of people who aren't.
Spring is here, spring is here. Life is skittles, life is beer. I think the very best time of the year is the spring. I do. Don’t you? I think I’d better stop now before Tom Lehrer comes after me for plagiarism. I don’t really mean to copy him, but frankly, I like the sentiment …
I was listening to a comedian the other day, and he was talking about his father. Basically, he noted that for the first several years of his life he thought his name was, “Oh Crap”. As in, “Oh Crap, did you make this mess?” or, “Oh Crap, why are you looking through that window?” and …
The world health organization is once again panicking, and that’s got the media in an uproar due to the fact that there are too many news organizations and too few news stories. How are they all going to fill twenty-four hours a day with only one health scare? I am not referring to the Corona …

I know a great Michigan winery which makes a great sparkling white wine for about ten bucks. In contrast, real Champaign …
Hey everyone. I have some new neighbors, Trae and Coco. No, I am not kidding. Who gives their kids names like that? Better yet, who named their kids like that twenty years ago, and what mortgage agent gave them a home loan without laughing hysterically? But I digress. Anyway, I have new neighbors, and we …
A lot of folks have asked, what a genius like Mr. Ohh! does when not making striking observations of the world. Well three of you have asked. Okay, better make that two, I probably shouldn’t include my wife in all this. Either way, it may interest you all to know I have spent the last …
I have come to the conclusion that there is a double standard in our world, which no one talks about.
