Ageing is Destroying My Vocabulary
I can tell I’m getting older just by my vocabulary.
Bouquets for Recent Post
The accolades are rolling in for my recent two word blog post.
Stop Burp-Shaming Me
There is no denying that I am constantly filled with gas. I often wonder why I weigh so much when I am filled with hot gas. I should be floating off into the ether. Look for me tethered to the ground at the next Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade. Anyway, it has to go somewhere.

My car’s back-up camera is working, but …
I leased a car recently, and all is well except for my back-up camera. It is a nice little safety feature on a car, when it is working properly.

Sign of the Apocalyse
While many conservative evangelical end-timers have pointed their fingers at President Obama, ISIS, Middle East unrest, the European Union and other “signs” as signalling the coming of the Biblical Apocalypse, I was skeptical.
Release the Trump Tape?
Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz sure want Donald Trump to release a supposedly secret tape.
I’m Excited About Being Wrong
I swear I heard that the previous Republican debate was the final one. Hence, this highly entertaining blog post about the debates ending too early was generated by yours truly too early as it turns out. My mistake, but I’m ready to celebrate.

Spring is imminent. I saw my first fly of the season today.
Good Posture > Fat
Most people don’t consider me fat. If I stand up straight, my shirt hangs down flat with no signs of a growing gut stretching the fabric of my shirt to its limits. I present a slim, but false facade.
Facebook Follies
I’m so tired of seeing Facebook posts challenging me to find a person’s first name that begins with O, or to find a city’s name that doesn’t have an O in it, or some other “challenge.”
And Then There Were 3 … Stooges
Now that Jeb! has exited the Republican Presidential primary race, we are left with 3 legitimate contenders: Donald Trump, Ted Cruz & Marco Rubio, the 3 Stooges of the Republican party.

Despite the lack of substantive discussions or facts, there was drama, comedy and conflict, exactly what you want from reality TV. Each debate saw candidates get “voted off” the main debate by how they polled with us, the general public.
