As I was lying in bed this morning a very clever title came to me for this post. I can’t remember what it was now, so you get the above. I recall that one of last night’s dreams involved Christian Slater’s wife. I read an article, in my dream, about her and learned she felt [...]
“Do you smell that?” I asked. I’d just walked in from work to find Samson sitting at the computer. “Yea,” he said, “I think it’s Haydn’s feet.” “It’s gas,” I clarified, “You and your brothers need to get out of the house.” And so started an odyssey that would take most of the night and [...]
I have a project going that has me putting some OSB down in my garage eaves to expand the storage I have. The project involves a lot of bending a body in a manner it may not be used to bending in; unfortunately, the body I’m using for this project is my own. While I [...]
I’ll start this post by saying today I bought turkey for 29 cents a pound. This won’t come as news to Americans, but it might take the international readers by surprise. I didn’t need a coupon or anything. Well, except to buy $30 in additional food items. In other news, today was the Ohio State/Michigan [...]
So, I took that gallon of stain I mentioned yesterday and used about a quart (or 1/3 gallon… I’m not sure how big the handheld container I painted from is, but it looks more quartish) to paint the picnic table, my mailbox, and the better part of one arm. Notice how the redwood color of [...]
We all have routines. Little things we do over and over, possibly at the same time each day, week, or month. I know I have them. For example, on Wednesdays I go to McDonald’s and have breakfast with Isabelle, the Doctor and Clyde. Another routine I have, and this is a relatively new one, is [...]
As men all know, any job worth doing is worth doing in such a way as to make it as big a job as possible. This thought goes hand-in-hand with the idea that if there are two ways to do a job and one involves using motorized equipment while the other does not, motorized is [...]
Someone once said: “Storage is where you find it.” And it might have been me that said it. And I may have said it just a few moments ago. And that’s sad, really; I’m currently home alone and I could have simply thought it and still accomplished my goal. And that goal was to have [...]
A most excellent day for a woman might go like this. An incredible day for a man goes like this. My cable has been acting funky. Which is not an excellent thing, really. It’s been funky for a while but it was funky in a way I thought might be self-healing. However, after several fruitless [...]
I thought I’d toss a couple of whole chickens on the Grill today. It was, after all, beautiful out and sitting next to a grill would give me a chance to pretend I was doing something even as I sat there reading a book. Lacking anything in the way of a cleaver or kitchen shears [...]
