This morning I gathered up a big load of Christmas presents, put on my coat and mask and headed downstairs. My mom was waiting for me. We said hello, and then I proceeded to pile my bunch of gifts into her car. When that was done, I stood back as she unloaded several bags of …

Six Feet? No Problem! Are You Sure That’s All You Need? I’ll Gladly Give You More
It’s good to see folks are taking public health measures seriously. London police apprehended a sword-wielding man after he was reportedly swinging the blade at the public, asking them to stay six feet away from him Police were called to the area of Oxford Street and Wharncliffe Road North at around 1:30 p.m. Tuesday following …

Honika Electronika
This song has been around for years. I would have never known. It’s certainly perfect for this year, since we’re not supposed to be seeing our whole families this holiday. The phonetic spelling of Hanukkah in the title made me want to find out why it’s sometimes spelled Chanukah and sometimes Hanukkah. Apparently there are …
I’m Too Bored For Just One Night
Well…my way behind behind finally made it to Wrestlemania. I thought about dusting off the notepad for the occasion, but I’m glad I didn’t. There’s only so many times and so many ways I would have been able to say nice try, but meh. These empty building shows are rough, you guys. Like really rough. …
Stay The Fuck At Home
Don’t ask me why, but somehow it appears that neither of us has ever posted Samuel L. Jackson’s heartwarming reading of the children’s classic “Go the Fuck to Sleep”. So before we go any further, allow me to remedy that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Udj-o2m39NA Now with that in mind, I give you this extremely important, updated version fit …

The Other Victims Of COVID
Gill sent this. I think she answers her own question with her first example. If you want to fight against hate, you have to show in any way you can no matter how big or how small that there is love and good in the world. Be the sort of person that you would want …
Groupon…A Ventilator
I have a question for other people who have Groupon. Does it appear like Groupon is trying to kill us? I have been getting tons and tons of offers that don’t sound very safe, one after the other. tours of Niagara falls, eating in at restaurants, facials and other procedures that mean taking off your …
Another Step In The Shmans Retirement Journey
I got some news a couple of weeks ago that, in normal times, would have been up on the blog immediately. But because now is now, I hadn’t posted it yet. After some logistical hurdles and technical difficulties, GDB received all my guide dog reapplication stuff, and it went to the committee, and I have …

I Like This Boat!
Not…gonna…cry…not…gonna…cry…oops! Well…at least this song is happier than the last one. Lyrics are at the bottom of the post in the great chaotic tangle that they are. They’re written chaotically because that’s how they sounded to me. I figured it was time for another update on how we are. Things are as alright as they …
