Well, apparently we're not going to war today, so that's nice. Been a weird 72 hours, though, and I'm not sure anyone has any clue what we're doing, much less the guys who're supposed to be running the show. Okay, so let's get up to speed. As we know, the weekend started off with the … Continue reading Wednesday, January 8, 2020

I broke up today's post, because the News is seriously heavy and the Gibberish is fairly gloomy, as well, and there's no sense in laying all that on someone. Go here for the Gibberish. A little News, but just a little because I'm tired and it's depressing. Nevertheless, we must keep a record. After all, … Continue reading Tuesday, January 7, 2020

I've been putting this off all evening. My brain's not working today for some reason. It's not exactly like being blocked so much as I'm just tired. Still, the show must go on, as they say, for 500 words at least. One of this issues is this weekend was so goddamned exhausting, what with Trump … Continue reading Monday, January 6, 2020

Dag-nabbit, the Saints lost. In overtime, too, just because that's how they do. Ah, well. It was a good season and it's nice to know there's a good kid on deck when Drew Brees decides to retire. Speaking of quarterback who probably should look at retiring, it's worth still paying attention to the playoffs since Tom … Continue reading Sunday, January 5, 2019

Man, I really don't want to do this. I am drained and tired. Yesterday was too much. I don't want to do anything but sit outside, and it's too cold for that. Let's ride with the King nevertheless. I've spent most of the day reading. I don't make New Year's Resolutions, as I think I've said, I … Continue reading Saturday, Jan 4, 2020

Well. We all know what happened last night. I'm really not in the mood to be flip or clever right now, so let's just pull together what we know and try to get something solid to wrap our heads around. Maybe at the end we'll relax and cut loose a bit. Maybe. Last night around 6 … Continue reading Friday, January 3, 2020

The rain's set in and it's been pouring down all day. They're getting it worse south of us with some wind and thunder, and as soon as I wrote that out a not-insignificant peel of thunder rolled through. Otis is not allowed to go outside, though, and he is in high dudgeon. So, let's go. … Continue reading Thursday, January 2, 2020

Hey, it's New Year's Day. We've made another arbitrarily measured trip around the Sun, marking time on a calendar we really didn't start paying attention until 1582 or so, and that was only because Easter was screwing with folks. There is no substantial difference between today and yesterday or today and tomorrow on any scale much less … Continue reading Wednesday, January 1, 2020

This is it, kids. The last day of the 2,019th Foul Year of Our Lord. Depending on how you measure these things, it's the end of the 2010s as a decade. By the time we see each other tomorrow, it'll be 2020 and we must ponder just what all that means. Well,... not much, really. … Continue reading Tuesday, December 31, 2019

The rain's moved out and the cold's come back. I find myself in the grip still of whatever surly funk got a-hold of me Friday. Gloomy and tired as opposed to quarrelsome and irritated, really, but I don't know why the change. It is what it is, I guess. Perhaps it's a natural progression. In … Continue reading Monday, December 30, 2019
