Thunder Dog Part Deux
Please understand that when I wrote Thunder Dog a few days ago, I was generally frustrated with our dog Faith and her irrational fear of thunder, lightning, and all that goes boom in the sky (like the garbage trucks which drive by twice a week). The blog itself [Read More]
Thunder Dog
Didn’t I mention just the other day on this very website that I’d rather deal with the thunder and lightning during the waking hours so that it wouldn’t cause me to involuntarily fly out of bed in the middle of a perfectly good dream involving a world free [Read More]
Seis de Mayo
Seis de Mayo has seemed to come in wet and thunderous, and subsequently got out hot and humid. What’s the deal with that? Generally I don’t have a problem with thunderstorms. The reason for that is because I grew up in Wyoming where I have no [Read More]

Frequently Blinded
This little ray of sunshine goes out to the consortium of home improvement centers which have perpetually ensconced themselves into the lofty conspiracy to liberate electronic funds from my bank account whenever I darken their door and swipe my credit/debit card in the [Read More]
A Muzzled Anniversary
Eighteen years ago today, Wifey and I dressed up in duds nice enough to get us into the Sizzler, stood before the preacher (her uncle), and committed ourselves to a lifetime of marriage. In the process of reciting my vows, I managed to drop the wedding ring while I [Read More]
Technically, The Term Is Alprazolam
