At the end of next month, it will mark my 10th anniversary on Facebook. Ah, yes, that accursed time-waster. When I first got on FB, initially I rejoiced at this quick, easy, and free means to look up old

The past two days have seen us clearing off the fallen trees from my property. Several took a beating the other night in the ice storm. Yesterday my wife got to the pruning shears first, so she cut the

Thanks to "Game of Thrones" we all know the phrase, "Winter is Coming!" Even if you like the cold months, you can't shake the feeling of gloom and dread the Stark's motto brings. Long,

One of the advantages of working third-shift is getting off work and getting some shopping done while the giant big box stores are pretty empty. While the rows are crowded with stockers, they're not crowded

Just got off a great visit with the cast of "Upper Pylon 2" podcast. We were discussing the episode "Chrysalis." Dr. Bashir successfully draws out augmented human Serenia from her permanent

All awards shows are just a smoldering garbage fire, spewing putrid fumes of self-congratulations, conspicuous consumption, and moral degeneracy. They all suck. The worst of the lot are the Tonys. Why

Yesterday morning, I finished up reevaluating my baseball card collection. I must say, I'm glad I never considered my baseball card collection as a retirement strategy. I only started collecting baseball

Anthony Bourdain took his own life yesterday. Suicide by hanging. I never watched "Parts Unknown," or any of his other programs. I care very little about celebrity chefs or professional cooking
