My brain hurts. But on the bright side, at least it works. That’s more than I can say for the sludge dumps in poor disguise that whoever came up with this have to work with. A householder on the outskirts of Edinburgh wants to create an “innovative” underground tunnel to the outdoor swimming pool in …

It’s Better Here, If By Here You Mean In The Garbage
I feel like this might be a good time to break out a tune I learned from one of the nephews. Do you like cereal? Yes I do! Do you like Frosties? Yes I do. Do you like limited edition frosty breakfast cereal born out of a partnership between Wendy’s and Kellogg? Highly fuckin’ unlikely, …

You’re In Some Poo Now, Christopher Robin
Imagine being the guy in prison who has to tell everyone he’s in for lying on Facebook about having paid a sick person to lick food. A Texas man has been sentenced to 15 months in prison for posting hoaxes on Facebook that falsely claimed he had paid someone with covid-19 to lick items at …

Alan Kalter’s Celebrity Interview
I was sad to hear a couple of months ago that Alan Kalter, David Letterman’s announcer for most of his CBS run, had died. I always enjoyed him, as I do a lot of classic announcers. Sadly you don’t hear many voices like those anymore. Digging through some old things just now that I hadn’t …

Ontario rent freeze expires on Jan. 1 This crosses my mind a lot. Not just in the context of the rent freeze, but in a general sense. The pandemic is clearly not over. Yes, we’re in a different place than we were a year ago before we had vaccines, but aside from feeling a bit …

WHAT???
I expected something when I clicked on the headline ‘Naked, screaming’ female reported at Sportsman Park, but it definitely was not whatever this is. DAWSON, Iowa — A female was reportedly seen “naked and screaming” about 6:15 p.m. Sunday in Sportsman Park near Dawson, according to public safety radio traffic. A rustic calm was prevailing …
The December Blues
It doesn’t seem like Gill is feeling the Christmas thing this year. I’ve been there, but for different reasons. One thing I’ve realized as I’ve gotten older and as life changes is that Christmas is a time made for kids. If you have them in your life like I do with all the nephews, it …
I Found Me!
Beyhan Mutlu sounds like a guy who enjoys a good party. Even if that party is a search party. A search party that, as it turns out, had been sent out to look for him. He had wandered away from his friends in a forest while drunk, according to the Daily Sabah website. His wife …
The Gunfighter
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXfltmzRG-g Now I kind of wish every western was like this. In the tradition of classic westerns, a narrator sets up the story of a lone gunslinger who walks into a saloon.
