I Missed a Wedding Anniversary

Gulp. I hate when that happens. It is really the worst. I shouldn’t miss it after all these years, but I did. I didn’t see any signs, any hints, any tweets.

Don’t Have a Black Cow, Man

I’m trying not to have a cow, but am struggling. Since this issue has to do with Steely Dan, I threw into the Bart Simpsonish title the Black Cow reference to their great song of the same name. I know, really clever. Another day, another clever title. But I am upset about what I see advertised for Steely Dan this summer …

A Firm “No” Regarding This Product

A “friend” asked me to test this product for him.

gold bond

I’m not so sure how well it works on firming the neck and chest, but I can report that it definitely does NOT firm any other body parts. My “friend” was disappointed.

Marching with Women

I would be remiss if I didn’t blog about my experiences at the Women’s March in Chicago yesterday where I, my wife, two of my daughters, some dear friends and about 300,000 other people rallied and marched. Last year was incredibly warm with a temperature at 60F degrees and drew 250,000 to Chicago. This year, it was still unseasonably warm, getting close to 50F, and 300,000 came. I love Chicago and the spirit of the people of Chicago. It is truly one of the great cities of the world. But before marching, the most important thing I had to do was to  fix my hat.

My Fave Faves – Delayed due to the Women’s March

What was I thinking? I started a weekly Saturday blog about music that nobody asked for a week before the Women’s March. No “My Fave Faves” this week. All hands on deck for the Women’s March today.

Signs are made / March we must / When we are through with them / The GOP will be dust.

And speaking of signs, here they are …

Inn From the Cold

After a wonderful first night on the road for business travel, I reluctantly checked out. I was ready for a letdown. Disappointment was oozing from my pores, but not because I was pondering my substandard business career or failures as a father, husband and friend like I usually do, but because my next hotel was not an Inn & Suites, but just an Inn. There is no way that just an Inn could be as good as an Inn with Suites. I was right. It was not just as good.

Inn & Out

After my first night’s decadent stay on the road, I unfortunately found myself checking out in the morning. When I opened my room’s door in the morning, I found this surprising item on the floor outside my room …

bill on floor

It was certainly not a used condom like I am used to seeing in most of the places I normally stay. What could it possibly be?

Staying Inn Tonight

I’ve hit the road again, but I feel so decadent staying at the hotel I’m at tonight. No, it’s not this one …

Hotel projections shithole

But I am breeding a whole colony of bedbugs just in case I ever have the opportunity to stay there. No Trump dump for me. But there is a specific reason I feel so decadent tonight.

M A S D A

No, this is not a post with bad spelling about a MAZDA automobile. I know we are all working hard to MAGA – Make America Great Again by attempting to take away each other’s healthcare and giving YUGE tax cuts to the wealthy and corporations, but I’d be happy with taking baby steps in that direction. How about this? I would be happy if something could be done to stop this from happening to my car seat every time I open the car door on a snowy day.
