Sunday Music

One of his best songs... https://youtu.be/M1p9pkIPoCE I prefer the guitar as the lead. But, what can you do? Best I could find. The song tells a story few could articulate these days. I remember standing on the corner at midnightTrying to get my courage upThere was this long lovely dancer in a little club downtownI … Continue reading Sunday Music →

A Visit to the Vet

I love my dogs. Anyone that reads this blog knows that. But they are pricey. They have to go to their doctor every year, and that ain't covered. Sorry, It's cash on the barrel head for that service, Mein Freundes. Wut? A vet visit? Aria is a rescue. Her mom was adopted by a family … Continue reading A Visit to the Vet →

Class of ’96

I recently had a post on The Fourth Turning. Let me tell you why this concept resonates with me. It's because I've seen it in action. There's a term I used to use for the cohort that's in power now. Not the geezers pulling the strings, but the feet on the street true believers. The … Continue reading Class of ’96 →

Learn to Code

Yesterday, Vox Day had a piece on the bloodletting at the Chicago Tribune. The media hasn’t been so much indifferent as sneeringly amused by the complaints of American workers whose jobs have been eliminated by the financial rapine of Wall Street under a false flag of creative destruction. But they aren’t sneering or laughing anymore … Continue reading Learn to Code →

Gonna be a Great Day, Tater

Look what I got: Manzanilla Olive Plants My replacement olive trees showed up. Last year, I blew nearly $200 on olive trees that got completely ruined in the big freeze. I was surfing Nature Hills where I got the first set, and they had these on sale - cheaper than before. I think I paid … Continue reading Gonna be a Great Day, Tater →

Clearing the Mind

The weather here lately is stunning. This morning it was 65 degrees, sunny, with zero humidity. Here in Dallas, it's as if we are being rewarded after the beatdown of the summer heat, which this year wasn't so bad. Sort of like getting that lollipop after a shot at the doctors. Funny, I've never gotten … Continue reading Clearing the Mind →

A week…gone.

I've been off this week, burning more use-it-or-lose-it PTO. I had big plans. The garage needs cleaning, the mulch needs shoveling, I have planting to do. Very little got done. I've felt crummy in the beginning, and still am having issues. I thought it may be the Coof, but now I'm nearly certain it's allergies. … Continue reading A week…gone. →

Dogs, We don’t Deserve Them

The weather is changing here in North Texas. The way I describe it is that sometime in May/June, someone waddles over to the big weather furnace and turns it one. This year, it was late, well after a cool, wet spring. From that point, it's hot. Damn hot. Africa hot. Then, sometime in September/October they … Continue reading Dogs, We don’t Deserve Them →

Goodbye, Consumer Reports

Awhile back I subscribed to Consumer Reports. I think we were looking at cars and they shilled a car review book for subscribing. I remember, back in the day, my dad would buy the magazine. I'd read it, and find it interesting if only somewhat useful to me at the time. So I subscribed. And … Continue reading Goodbye, Consumer Reports →
