I'm really not in the mood for this, honestly, and I couldn't tell you why apart from the general foul mood I've been in for the past couple of months. Even a cursory glance at the news of the day fills me with fear and loathing. So let's get this done and I can get … Continue reading Monday, October 5, 2020
The Weekend, October 3-4, 2020
I neglected to put up links to this week's News at Saturday's Gibberish, so let me do that right out of the game. Really nothing all that noteworthy on Tuesday and Thursday, either. Ruminations on dreams and yet another way I don't fit in on Tuesday with some takeaways at what Tuesday's debate showed us … Continue reading The Weekend, October 3-4, 2020

I'm not sure where to start, actually. I'm not a believer in karma or retribution from any Almighty or anything like that, nor is the following going to shake that. I will say, however, that it continues to be a big ol' goofy world. If you haven't heard the news, Donald Trump, the President of the … Continue reading Friday, October 2, 2020

So, the first Presidential Debate was last night and, holy shit, that was a goddamn mess. I really doubt it did Joe Biden much harm but the initial reports I'm seeing is that is shaving off a few fence-sitters who apparently think Trump acted like, and I quote, a "crackhead." I'll give him credit for … Continue reading Wednesday, September 30, 2020

I've have a hell of a day. No, you don't care, trust me. In any event, let's get into it and knock out a quick one. We're all still digesting the bomb dropped yesterday evening by The New York Times concerning Trump's shenanigans. Among other things, it has him paying only $1500 in federal income … Continue reading Monday, September 28, 2020
The Weekend: September 26-27
Man, I lay me down to take my nap and wake to see all hell's broke loose. Just when you thought this election cycle couldn't get any wilder, it just does without even a second thought. I must admit, I'm slightly tremulous at the thought of what comes next because you know it's going to … Continue reading The Weekend: September 26-27

It's the end of the week, for what that's worth. I really don't have anything special to fixate on nor do I see anything particularly noteworthy that needs deeper explanation. The news is just a hellstorm all the way around. So let's do as Sam & Dave said and "wrap it up." Or the Fabulous … Continue reading Friday, September 25, 2020

I have some Actual Paying Work to do tonight, so this will probably be a short one. I also have a doctor's appointment tomorrow, so I can't do my usual thing of waking up around 3 a.m. to do the APW. Plus, frankly, I'm a little brokenhearted. In the matter of the late-night assault by … Continue reading Wednesday, September 23, 2020

The power's already flickered off a couple of times, so this might turn out to be more trouble than it's worth. Even so, the week's barely gotten started and it's already pretty stupid. I mean, depressingly stupid, but this is the Age of the Dumb so it's to be expected. So let's start off with … Continue reading Monday, September 21, 2020
The Weekend: September 19-20, 2020
I'm letting the day slip away from me. It's been really nice here the last couple of days. Cool and dry, and there's definitely a bite of fall in the air. Tropical Storm Beta is heading to the Texas coast, is how things are looking. The last time we got into the Greek alphabet was … Continue reading The Weekend: September 19-20, 2020
