Our House Is A Very, Very, Very Fine House

I just made a realization. This will be my one-hundred-seventy-fifth post and I rarely talk about myself. I happen to be one of the most amazing things I can imagine. In fact, I find myself an extremely fascinating, witty, highly intelligent, brilliant conversationalist. My wife goes so far as to say I’m a legend in …

No! Friends Are Not Worth It!

I haven’t shaved in two days and my hair is a mess. I have four beers in front of me, and you might wonder why, on this short flight between Canada and the USA, I would do that. The reason is actually very simple. Very odd, but simple. You see Canadian flight attendants on Canadian …

World Laughter Day EXTRA

A Mr. Ohh’s sideways view EXTRA. Wow people is this ever exciting. Today is world laughter day and I truly feel I’m not doing my share. Earlier I went outside, stood in the yard and threw pies in people’s faces, but the pedestrian community I live in just called the cops. The fine wasn’t too …

Fifty Shades Of Shade

It was the poet Joyce Kilmer who wrote, “I think that I shall never see, a greater pain in the rump than a tree!” No wait, sorry about that. It was his wife Aline, who was sick and tired of all the stupid rewrites. I’m starting to agree with her and I actually love trees. …

The thing is the modern press wasn’t there either. Sure, there were celebrities telling folks to get vaccinated, and newspapers taking pictures, but …

Life’s Too Short To Drink Cheap Beer

I want to know, and I want to know now, what ignorant sociopath came up with the plain donut? Is this a marketing tool of some kind? Perhaps, they think we can lose weight and feel-good eating plain donuts. Don’t be an idiot. It’s still deep-fired sugar filled dough. It still has about a bazillion …

Excuse Me Have You Seen The Manual??

All right I’m mad. So, whoever’s been steeling my stuff I want you to return it. Right now! I am not going to forgive you, but I need those manuals to survive. What manuals you may ask? The life manuals that I was supposed to receive. The ones everyone else seems to get but never …

I Will Do Anything For Sports… But I Won’t Do That

Well, October is over. The leaves have changed, and Halloween has come and gone. We can now look forward to, brisk November mornings, delicious Thanksgiving feasts, and a complete lack of baseball. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not that I don’t like baseball. I love baseball. There’s nothing like the feel of the sun on …
