Thordora came up with a good name for today. Stupid Day. It must be if a mother will let her children play in the *parking* lot and entrance of the apartment building where I live without thinking this was a bad idea or considering relocating their games to a giant park nearby. Seriously, I got …

Somebody Needs a New Brain!
I’m amazed by some of the letters to the editor I see in the newspaper. I know there are always weird letters to the editor in every paper, but at least some of them look like they were written by someone intelligent. You may not agree with the writer and think he’s kind of out …

Apartment Hunting Sucks!
Steve and I are looking for a place together. Our little places can get a bit cramped when the two of us are in them, not to mention if we unloaded all of our stuff into one of them. That just wouldn’t happen. This has brought me to the conclusion that god I hate apartment …
Brain Drain!
Wow! Would you believe that, instead of making a date-rape drug, this bunch of imbeciles made industrial strength drain cleaner, some of them even managing to down four glasses of it, but they still didn’t figure out that something was amiss with their chemical creation until they had to call an ambulance because our star …
Stupidhead the Sequel!

Fruit Is Like Oxygen
Ok, thanks to me and my stupid titles, I can’t get that old love Is Like Oxygen song out of my head now. I hope somebody knows which song I’m talking about so I won’t be alone. It’s one of those songs that once you hear it, or even think about it, it’s in your …
Last Call For Last Call?
Here’s another story update for you. A few weeks ago I wrote about the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission’s brilliant plan to arrest people in bars because they’re drunk. Well, after almost 2000 arrests and seemingly a lot more public outcry, the program, which they ended up naming Operation Last Call, has been called off, hopefully …
Gun Safety Update
Remember the gun safety video that I posted a link to a couple of months ago? Well, the star of that clip, Drug Enforcement Administration officer Lee Paige, is now suing his employer for letting the video get out. Here are the important parts of the story, just in case the link doesn’t stay active …
Nice Going, Captain Hook
Bad idea: Using artillery shells as paperweights.Worse idea:Using those paperweights to crush bugs. There’s nothing I could ever hope to add to this other than I’m glad this guy was never a teacher of mine, and how great would it be if the bug ended up surviving?
