“You’re crazy!!” For some reason that particular phrase is aimed at me quite often. I don’t really get why. Sure I used to be called the Test Dummy when I was younger. What of it? And what is wrong with going on vacation and not coming back for four or five months? Who DOESN’T do […]
I have to laugh at myself right now. A few years back, when I first started blogging, it was right before a great community builder called the A to Z Challenge. The concept is to challenge our creativity, as well as help us build a blogging community. It was suggested I do it, and in […]
In the last week I have been hard at work in my goal to become sleek and slim so I can take up the mantle of lord of all I purvey at some point. I decided on a new exercise strategy … since my last weigh in was an increase in poundage. I was so […]
I don’t want to imply that I am not perfect or any such silly nonsense, but a week ago I made a pact with one of my blogging buddies to a fearsomefriendly competition to see who can lose the most weight by the end of the year. This idea has taken off a bit, and […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]It is the second week in the competition for who gets top billing as Supreme Big Kahuna of the World, and sadly our hero (that’s me folks … in case you forgot) is not off to a good start. It I underestimated the influence of The Idiot. He seems to have some Jedi mind trick that […]
Once upon a time, this basically lazy but somewhat creative guy came up with a crazy idea. He got sick of telling people he was unemployed when they asked what he did for a living, so he figured Author would be a much better way of saying it. To add some verisimilitude to this concept, he learned […]
Eye of the Tiger plays in the background. A virile masculine type is doing impressive feats of fitness. Sit-ups with a dresser on his chest; single finger handstand push ups; beating the stuffing out of concrete punching bags; sprinting up sky scraper stairwells. And then I wake up. Yep. The Super Secret Plan exercise program begins today. […]
Today I made a pact with the world-renowned Idiot … Return of The Idiot Speaketh (Idiot 2.0). I don’t want to go into too many details, but it is part of a long-term plan for world domination. We have much to do to make sure this plan goes off without a hitch, but the first thing […]
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]It has always been my impression that one of the core values of the US Constitution is the concept of “innocent until proven guilty“. That encompasses the basic idea of freedom of thought and expression. One cannot be condemned for something without having proof that they actually did something wrong. It is the fundamental difference between an oppressive government […]
Since I am once again channelling my inner Don Quixote, the world … especially the internet world, has shifted in my sights again. It is aways interesting to me how our vision will shift according to what we want, or better yet need, to see. Of course one has to be willing to actually see, and not […]
