WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 30, 2009 So, I got the kids a ping pong table. Okay. I got myself a ping pong table but made it look like it was from me. What? Of course, putting the ping pong table together is another matter. Fortunately, I have male friends with tools in the form of Todd, with…
MONDAY, JANUARY 06, 2020 Happy New Year! How did you party the night away? We had a Roaring Twenties party. I love that era – the clothes, parties and people were fabulous! Women got the right to vote, became more independent and daring, bandaids were invented – what’s not to love? This is me and…
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 02, 2008 Okay, so I plagerized Steve Martin on that one. Remember that album from the ’70’s? I must have played it one million times.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 13, 2010 My Dove Dark chocolate wrappers are talking to me again. Or maybe it’s my stomach. I did eat about fifty of them. Anyway, you know those sayings on the wrappers? Here’s what mine said: “We’re in this together!” Um, no, we’re not. If we were in this together, you’d pay half…
MONDAY, DECEMBER 2, 2019 Hello there, annoying Inferior Creatures. This last week there was something Weird One refers to as Turkey Day. Turkey Day? Those idiots get a holiday? Why don’t we have Jelly Day? Or Let’s All Worship Jelly Day? Or Let’s Beg Superior Being Jelly Not to Destroy Us on a Whim Day (subject to my whim,…
WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 25, 2009 So, we’re sitting around the table and my friends are talking about sex. They are complaining that they only have it once in a while and how that’s not enough. Me: Oh, that’s real nice. Considering I’m not going to get any until May! Pass the saltpeter please (check out Mr….
Tuesday, December 02, 2008 Margaret just got her first pair of glasses. She’s in fifth grade and as soon as she got them, she proclaimed, “OMG! (she actually talks like that) I CAN SEE!” The other day, Mr. Assassin found my first pair of glasses. That’s them above. I got mine in fourth grade. I…
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 03, 2010 This stuff was in the headlines today (I kid you not): Baptists From Idaho Arrested for Kidnapping Haitian Children Overheard at last Sunday’s Church social; “I’ve got a good idea!
