I recently read the memoir of a DJ from the 80s, Richard Blades, where he details cheating on Terri Nunn (she wrote No More Words about their breakup) and that his current wife’s parents are his age (she was an adult when they met at a club he was DJing at, so presumably 21.) He is actually older than her mother was…

My oldest nephew was in band when he was in high school. Sometimes, he’ll start a story with, “This one time...” and I always interject with, “At band camp?” He doesn’t find it as funny as I do.

I’ve also noticed lately that they seem to have a lot fewer articles. I check all my sites every morning and in 24 hours sometimes I don’t even go past the first page of the latest list before I hit articles I saw yesterday.

I’m kind of surprised people are automatically jumping to “he’s lying” just because the company doesn’t have a record of a job offer from over 50 years ago. 

I don’t think many people forgot about that. I think most people never knew about it. Hell, I was alive and aware then, but I didn’t know about the US contribution to building up the Taliban until later. I mean, I knew the broad strokes of what was going on in Afghanistan, but didn’t know we were supporting a…

It’s hard to tell since her dark eyes blend in with her dark face, but she’s looking at me. Although she was likely aggravated and just wanted me to hurry up and get in bed to give her belly rubs.

Sorry that took so long. I finally figured it out. (I swear the last time I posted a picture it was a lot easier than this.) Anyway, here she is. 

Caring is why I can’t see that stuff.

Here she is waiting for me to hurry up and come to bed. It’s hard to get good pictures of her because she moves a lot and she’s black, so if it’s not a light background, you can’t really see her. (I hope the picture posts. I don’t post pictures on here very often.)

I got a popcorn ball or two most years I went trick or treating. Never got a candy apple, which is fine because I never liked them. Oh, I’ll eat the caramel off of it, but eating the whole thing together was just always too difficult.

I was surprised by Sting because he never struck me as the kind of guy who would be cool with making fun of himself. 

This is awesome, but I don’t know how you keep him from getting peanut butter all over the carpet once he’s finished.

That would mean the extinction of dogs. That’s where I have an issue. 

After reading The Lost Dogs, I still hate that man.

Rescue dogs are the best! My dog was found on the street as a puppy and taken to a fire station where I later picked her up. She has had separation anxiety ever since (I took her back to that station one time a couple years later to show them how she’d grown and she peed on the floor. She hates tile floors, too.)…

Yeah, I know a lot of atheists who celebrate Christmas with a tree and gifts and a big meal, just no church and no decorations like a nativity scene. I also know pagans who celebrate it for what it was originally, which includes most of the things the rest of us do. 

Oh, how that makes me mad. I know it’s small people who have to pick on people unable to fight back to feel powerful and it just pisses me off. I work for a non-profit and we’re under the umbrella of an organization that has a lot of programs for the elderly. There’s a sign up front that has an older woman with a…

My issue with being vaccinated and new mutations is that, even vaccinated, I could spread it and that would contribute to the mutations.

Yeah, but I don’t want to be part of the spreading. Most of the unvaccinated are idiots, but there are still a lot of kids under 12 (and a lot of their parents around here are still taking them all over the place) and I don’t want to risk that. Plus, my dad is an idiot who isn’t vaccinated, but I love the dumb idiot…
