Day Four
I’ve seen nothing from the CDC on the subject, but I cannot see any reason why lap time with a warm dog would not be part of a COVID treatment program. Also, it occurred to me yesterday, as I was … Continue reading
An Hypothetical
So, you’re cleaning out your house. It’s a pretty big house, and you’ve got a lot of stuff to get rid of. But you’re sure the town trash service will be perfectly happy to deal with all of it, so you … Continue reading
Tone Poem Tuesday
You know the drill: When I’ve not really had time to listen to anything specific and write insightful commentary about it, I turn to Franz Von Suppe’s operetta overtures. Here’s a very good performance of Suppe’s Morning, Noon, and Night in … Continue reading
“First offense, BAM! Into the colon you go!”

Oot ‘n a Boot
If I needed a visual summation of the last six months, this would be it. Ayup. That’s an orthopedic boot. I was not in the boot. The Wife was. She has had troublesome ankles her entire life, but this past … Continue reading
A learned hatred in service of a small god
I, like many others, am disturbed and horrified by the attack on author Salman Rushdie that took place at the Chautauqua Institution, a place I’ve been to a few times, which is just an hour’s drive away on the lovely … Continue reading →
