Kids, there are lots of things they don't teach you in school. They don't teach common sense, which would be helpful because most of the general public lacks such a thing. They don't teach you how to ask a girl out, which would be helpful in about 15 years when that cute girl across the … Continue reading Advice for Kids: It Isn’t Funny

The Soup
I thought about starting this little story out with the phrase, "When I was a kid..." But really, I don't think I was a kid. It just feels like the following events took place so many years ago, that in my over 30 mind, I was a kid. Whatever the case, I think I was … Continue reading The Soup
What’s the Coyote Thinking?
Consider the Road Runner. Seriously. Consider this guy. Just look at the picture. I can't help but ask, what the heck is Wile E. Coyote thinking? I mean, take a good, long look at that bird. He is all feet, neck, and tail. What kind of meal is that gonna be? Was he just gonna … Continue reading What’s the Coyote Thinking?
The Death of Superman
Netflix tends to go through phases. Sometimes, the streaming service will have the rights to show a movie for a while, then it won't.

Freaking Out
This morning, before the sun rose, I woke up to make a trip to the bathroom. This is a normal thing. I stand up, a little disoriented from the fact that I've just opened my eyes for the first time in several hours. It's still fairly dark, but I know my way around the place … Continue reading Freaking Out
Hair Products
I'd been putting off getting a haircut for a while. Mostly because getting a haircut requires money, which is something of short supply most days. Anyway, the haircut was long overdue. So I got to the place and was introduced to Kim, the woman who would be cutting my hair that day. And Kim got … Continue reading Hair Products
Letters
I've mentioned on occasion that I consider myself to be something of a comic book geek. It's not a label I pin to my chest for all the world to see on a daily basis. Though, if it was a fact that I was trying to hide, I certainly wouldn't publish it on a blog … Continue reading Letters
Another 50 Question Thing
This list of questions came from the Facebook a long time ago. They're different than the questions I stole from another blogger a few months ago. But I still love this kind of thing.
