The sum of two halfwits isn’t what you think.
Well, maybe it is.

Random Thursday: Shambling into a new year
Hello, America. It’s the first Thursday of 2022, and this is the year that I’m finally going to get serious about my journalistic responsibilities. Of course, that will have no effect on this website. As I’m sure you all know, today is National Cuddle Up Day, which sounds quite inviting, only it’s also National Bean… Continue reading Random Thursday: Shambling into a new year
Ask Me Anything: I answer your burning questions
A week or so ago, while wandering through the Desert of Lost Creativity, I stumbled onto the idea of doing an AMA post. I solicited questions via Faceborg and this here blog-like thing, and promised to consider answering them. Some of y’all joined in, and in keeping with the ongoing theme of the Gazette, threw… Continue reading Ask Me Anything: I answer your burning questions
Got Ticks?
We’ve had a lot of rain recently here in the Texas Hill Country, and the combination of rain and warmer weather has brought on a seasonal nuisance in the form of ticks. And, apparently, we Texans have plenty of company in that regard. Last week, NBC’s The Today Show ran a segment on dealing with… Continue reading Got Ticks?
Dream Sequence

I had a powerful… Continue reading Goose and Gander Grievance
Random Thursday: The Friday Edition
It’s cold and rainy and dreary…and I’ve decided that I’d be the world’s worst arsonist. It might have taken hours to build, but it is cozy. I did finally get a conflagration going in the fireplace, but it took an entire edition of the Wall Street Journal and most of my kindling to accomplish that.… Continue reading Random Thursday: The Friday Edition
In the *cough* air tonight *sneeze*
A friend recently shared the results of a family member’s allergy tests (see below) — which is obviously an egregious HIPAA violation which I plan to report to the authorities just as soon as I share the test results on the internet — and I have so many questions. The numbers in the yellow-highlighted column… Continue reading In the *cough* air tonight *sneeze*
“Bird Box” and Me: A Cautionary Tale
Wherein we once again learn the power of movies to influence people to do dumb things.
Signs. And wonders.
Me, blogging Hiya. Happy Cinco de Mayo. I would have written that en español, but I’ve been informed by some people with too much time on their hands that it’s not really a generally-observed Mexican holiday, but only an excuse to eat tacos and guacamole, and drink Coronas and margaritas. To which I respectfully respond:… Continue reading Signs. And wonders.
