A One Second Comedy Show
I was going to post a quote from Alan Watts but then people started farting around me, distracting me from my current sense of purpose. Hop encouraged, “Try it, it gives you more humor.” Pretending ignorance, I said, “What?” H.o.p. said, “Farting!” He blew a fart on his arm and laughed. “See, it’s like a…

Textbook Irony
The Apple store says their “geniuses” are very busy with repairing computers so it’s several more days before they can look at my monitor. I already know my monitor is going to cost probably (at least) $500 to repair. After 16 months in my possession, the Apple power box apparently freaked out and went bad…

Wandering Youtube
Elle Greenwich is dead. She wrote some amazing songs. Tina Turner. What a voice. Can’t pass this one up. I didn’t realize until now that Marc Bolan played on Nutbush City Limits. Ike and Tina and the T Rex hit. Marc Bolan was the session player on this as well as Sexy Ida Part II…

Who in Wasilla knows me by name?
Wasilla? I check my stats once a month since no one visits my blog/website. No one visits the website for my “Unending Wonders of a Subatomic World” book so any activity stands out.

Unidentified Bug
Opened the door to the back room and there was this BUG, some weird big thing, I couldn’t tell what it was, scurried behind something and I yelled and closed the door, I didn’t want to stomp on it with bare feet as I didn’t know what it was, then I opened up the door…

Sofa Pillows
When are sofa pillows too flat and look sad instead of perky happy? Does it matter? Our sofa pillow covers have zippers because I’m practical that way. When they get flat I can easily replace the stuffing. I can’t rub the front and back fabric together so I guess I’m good. But when you can,…

His Own Person
First words out of H.o.p. this morning, “Well, y’know people have their own opinions and I’m my own person…” which means he’s about to ask for something which I’ve told him already was not a good idea.

Our apartment building would collapse on sight just out of fear
This beast is freakin’ huge. Must be a hallucinatory experience driving down the road and happening on this thing, especially if you don’t know it exists. That saw! How big is it?! It could probably slice our apartment building in half. We Aren’t Seeing Transformers if This Thing’s Not in it Link to Gawker

As if his voice isn’t distinctive enough
Bob Dylan was taken into custody on suspicion of not being really Bob Dylan (he doesn’t look like he did years ago) but instead some old guy just saying he’s Bob Dylan, looking at a house for sale. He requested to be driven over to the hotel/tour buses, an id was made by his manager…
