Slacker Joan, tsk tsk tsk. She is such a rabble rouser. Dragging the black hole controversy on and on and on. And contributing to it as well! She called me a Pringle’s Cracker Stix, Styx, Stick. You know. Well, she might have called me one if I had been around when she posted her post, [...]

Here’s BB King getting a bath yesterday. With baby shampoo. Since he’s a geezer he’s developed some severe dandruff, so I thought maybe gentle baby shampoo might help.
Nah. Pretty worthless, but it smells much better than flea shampoo and he doesn’t have fleas, so it’s all good. He likes to partake of his bathwater during [...]

As I mentioned earlier Mr. Froth decided to go hiking by himself at 6 AM. I was kind of asleep. Really I was. Trust me. I woke up at 7 and he was gone and I thought, “I certainly hope he be’s careful.”
He arrived home two hours later, noting that he’d seen two deer and [...]

Twisters. Whatever. Speaking of language. Which I wasn’t until I woke up this morning to realize that Mr. Froth had trekked off by himself into the wilds so I got up to try to finish the crossword puzzle, read about Sharepoint (Oh help me, Lord. If anyone has any tips on that feel free to [...]

Agent Bedhead has written a review about Journey to the Center of the Earth. Go read it–she writes great reviews about all sortsa movies. While we never actually GO to movies we occasionally rent one or two and search out goodies on all the available cable channels. How, however, could you not like this one? [...]

I’m just so pleased when I can legitimately discuss some sort of politically charged statements with some sort of credentials.
Namely, our nation’s so-called failing in the ability to communicate in a foreign language. It’s a mask of a juvenile mentality to trot out the stale trope of all one can say is “merci beaucoup” or [...]

At least I think they’re our friends. They haven’t shown any unneighborly tendencies. Yet.
They haven’t shown themselves at all, actually, but they’re noisy buggers. It’s that time of year when the cicadas sing for their breakfasts/lunches/snacks/suppers/desserts and do so with gusto.
Our backyard was filled with an orchestra of kazoos at lunch. Well, maybe not kazoos, maybe [...]

Certain family members, otherwise known as much older family members, much much older family members, and their cat, sent me this birthday card a few weeks ago. It’s from Mooningduck.com.

The outside light, the light outside the building, as in outside my window, and not inside fluorescenntt…lig…
As I was saying, the natural light has that sharp, clear, invigorating cast to it that brings to mind mid-Fall or early-Winter days, before snow, rain or muck has had a chance to dull everything. As I look out [...]
