A little personal news before we get started. I turned 46 today. It’s also Hound Dog Taylor’s birthday, but the two probably aren’t related. Beyond that, I don’t know what to tell you. As we start the third week of the former Minneapolis Police Department officer Derek Chauvin’s trial for causing George Floyd’s death when … Continue reading Monday, April 12, 2021

We just finished the first full week of April and the weather authority is telling us we’ve got another booger of a storm coming to the Deep South. We here at Enon Holler World Headquarters are under a severe thunderstorm warning until tomorrow, the fifth one in four weeks, and some parts of Arkansas are seeing ping pong-sized … Continue reading Friday, April 9, 2021

Hey, y’all, a bit of personal news before we get good and going. I got my first shot today. I’m taking the Pfizer vaccine which means I’ll have to go back around in three weeks. As of right now, I’m not feeling any of the adverse effects they’re warning and, so far, my free will … Continue reading Monday, April 5, 2020

It's the end of the week and the weather's been great. We might be seeing some rain next week, but until then it feels like late Spring. And with that in mind, let's close out the week and get ourselves situated for Friday. Due to the popularity of the bill, Joe Biden jumped the gun on signing … Continue reading Friday, March 12, 2021

Well, a new month starts today. Let's see what fresh hell it brings. And since it's July, it means we're past the halfway mark. There's only six more months left to go in 2020. I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Anyhow, we have work to do so let's get … Continue reading Wednesday, July 1, 2020

Well, since I'm up and it worked so well yesterday - in that I had the evening free to mess around - I'm going to write out today's News this morning rather than wait. Now, granted, something drastic may happen before the day's out but that's a risk I'm willing to take. In any event, … Continue reading Monday, June 8, 2020
The Weekend: June 6-7, 2020
It's 6:15 in the morning as I start this. Since this and The Gibberish have been getting later and later - and since this bit of News is held under less stringent rules as the rest of the week - I thought I'd go ahead and start something. See how much I could get down … Continue reading The Weekend: June 6-7, 2020

These keep getting later and later. It all stems back to when the internet wouldn't stay on a couple weeks back. Granted, the summer's getting longer and my naps are starting later. Anyhow. It's Friday and we've been sort of scattered all week, so let's see if we can't wrap it all up in some … Continue reading Friday, June 5, 2020

Maybe things are calming down a bit. After a wild response, to say the least, to the murder of George Floyd of a Minneapolis police officer while three others stood by and, I don't know, took bets on how long he'd last, the country erupted in anger over yet another dead black person due to … Continue reading Wednesday, June 3, 2020

I'm not going to lie about. Between this, Gibberish, and Actual Pay Work of the last week, I'm wore pretty much out. Add to that the ongoing horrors of the past couple of months, and after I shut down last night I didn't really bother to open it back up today. This is going to … Continue reading Monday, June 1, 2020
