I have the day off, in honor of MLK. I'll honor that by cleaning up around here and unpacking more boxes. It's 11 degrees outside, part of the three days of winter we'll have this year. So it's chilly, even inside as this dump has shitty windows and doors that don't seal. In my haste … Continue reading Where the Heat At?

Welcome to 2024
Gonna be a great year, Tater. At least I think so. Could hardly be worse than 2023, that's for sure. Now that I'm setup in the new place, I can reflect on where I am and where I'm going. The house is closed, and gone, Money in the accounts. There is nothing tethering me to … Continue reading Welcome to 2024

It's been a hectic week. I needed to get a few things done for work, since I took Thursday and Friday off. When I requested the PTO, I thought I'd have to move. Well, that didn't happen. So I've been packing. My goal here is to be able to move, maybe after new years, without … Continue reading Random Thoughts
Trouble with AI
Our VP is on the AI bandwagon, big time. I get it. We have a provider that is really a startup that's supposed to mash up content and spit out a training course. It works OK, provided you feed it right. The idea here is it'll inhale a technical doc - say an administration guide, … Continue reading Trouble with AI

The other day, I spilt iced tea in my car. I grabbed the cup wrong, the top popped off, and down it all went - on my leg, into the carpet. No biggie. It wasn't sweetened. Turns out, that doesn't matter. A day later, the car smelled like feet-stink. I thought it was the box … Continue reading Random Thoughts

Running late this week. You'll see why in a minute. This is all that's wrong with North Dallas: New Mexico, this time. Always a blue state. Usually a luxury car. Always going -5 mph in the left lane. I tried to get some good ones for another shithead O' the week. All Day, every trip, … Continue reading Random Thoughts

Now that I stopped drinking, I don't sit at my desk, buzzed, listening to tunes, thinking big thoughts and blogging them. Is that a problem? For the foreseeable future: Shoot me. As I've posted before, after the dust settles here, I was thinking of moving to Paris, TX. Lot's of nice properties up there cheap. … Continue reading Random Thoughts
Adding Another Secret
I find myself referring to Adam Piggott quite a bit. He's got a lot going on with his site. Last week he had a piece about how to save your marriage. I have a few thoughts about that. The secret is having kids. Then again, we are devout Catholics, Herself and I, with kids. And … Continue reading Adding Another Secret
Getting Fit
I found a piece on PJMedia about the 'Lizzofication of America'. It's behind a paywall, dontcha know. However, its starts out with some words about how the largest among us suffer when traveling. Did you know that the seats and toilets on a plane aren't fat friendly? Who knew. No mention about how others suffer … Continue reading Getting Fit

For all youtube's algorithms, how is it most of the time I tune into car fixing channels they play depends commercials featuring you-go-gurl old women out to party (After donning diapers)?. Speaking of algorithms, I've gotten pelted a couple times with banners for an over 50s dating site. How do they know? It was really … Continue reading Random Thoughts
