A Miserable Day For Childhood Steve

2019 seems to be getting off to a rather 2016-like start on the celebrity death front. Mean Gene Okerlund and Super Dave Osborne both died today. Both were 76 and awesome in their own ways. Mean Gene is the best wrestling interviewer I’ve ever seen. He had a way of making bad promos decent and …

The 179 Days Of Christmas

If you’re in need of some festive holiday music to listen to as you gather with family and friends today, how about this nine hour version of the 12 Days of Christmas? To be clear, I do not suggest that any of you actually listen to this. It’s terrible. I made it to day 14 …

Twas The Night Before Christmas, House Of Commons Style

I pay decent attention to the goings on in Parliament, yet somehow I had never seen Liberal MP Rodger Cuzner read his annual Christmas poem. But now I have, and it’s awesome. With so much division in the world, sometimes it’s nice to be reminded that things don’t suck all the time and that now …

Love Is A 47-Year-Old Christmas Present

Thank …

Littering Outer Space Might Not Have Been The Best Idea, You Guys

Since humans started traveling to space, we’ve left a lot of stuff up there. Sometimes that’s good (communications satellites, the space station, ETC), but sometimes not so much (spent rocket parts, satellites that we’re not using anymore, random garbage, ETC). And just like here at home, all of that junk is becoming a problem. In …

Jazzy Want A Firefighter!

Parrots and their way of imitating things always fascinates me. Well, here’s another one, and this one imitated the smoke alarm and brought firefighters to the home. Damn, that parrot is good. Living with a bird who could do that would have confused the heck out of me, but the way he imitates the phone …

Somebody Just Voted Himself Off The Christmas Card List

This looks like your standard, run-of-the-mill campaign ad, but then… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZuayQFD51w Holy shit, did not see that coming. Yes, that really is six of Republican Congressman Paul Gosar’s nine siblings telling the good people of Arizona not to vote for their brother and to instead support his opponent, Democratic candidate David Brill. It didn’t work, …
