I have no shame when it comes to stealing ideas from other people's blogs. I used to do it all the time on my old blog. Back in the day, I had this crazy idea about blogging every single day. It becomes hard to come up with new things to write about if you're posting … Continue reading Grown-Up Quiz

Meteorological Throwdown
In any given location in America, one can usually find three local TV stations affiliated with each of the three major broadcast networks. I suppose, in some of the more populated regions, you'll find news outfits that are affiliated with the Fox Network. Where I live, we really only see local affiliates for CBS, NBC … Continue reading Meteorological Throwdown
What’s the Deal with Jess?
I've recently watched though the entire run of Gilmore Girls. Despite being a grown man, I'm perfectly comfortable making that statement publicly. It's a pretty well-written show with a lot of humor woven into the drama. There are some topical references that don't make much sense these days, but the show ended eight years ago, … Continue reading What’s the Deal with Jess?
Being Mocked By a Poster
See that? That picture there with Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels? The one that looks like they're pointing and laughing at you? It's like they're literally saying, "Ha! We got you to pay good money to see a really bad movie! All because you felt some ridiculous sense of nostalgia! Suckers!"
Question of the Week #5
If a new medicine were developed that would cure arthritis but cause a fatal reaction in 1 percent of those who took it, would you want it to be released to the public? Normally, I would be inclined to say yes. The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, or the one … Continue reading Question of the Week #5
This Is the Last One About My Wisdom Teeth. I Promise.
Yesterday afternoon I made another trip to the oral surgeon's office. This time, the appointment entailed a simple follow up. They just wanted to take a look at my mouth and see how the healing process was progressing. I also got the syringe that everyone's been telling me about. The one that squirts water into … Continue reading This Is the Last One About My Wisdom Teeth. I Promise.
Did You Lose Your Glasses?
A little more than a year ago, eyeglasses were not a part of my regular wardrobe. Then I saw an optometrist who let me know my vision was no longer as perfect as it once had been. I used to pride myself on having 20/20 vision. My 30s, it seemed, were catching up to me. … Continue reading Did You Lose Your Glasses?
The Recovery Process
A week ago, I mentioned that I would be having my wisdom teeth removed. In case anyone was wondering, that was a true story. Last Thursday, I visited the oral surgeon and he removed all the wisdom. Now I only have my looks to rely on. I was nervous about the whole thing. I'd never … Continue reading The Recovery Process
Inefficient Ghouls
I found this little gem on the internet at some point in recent history. As you can plainly see, it's an attempt to explain why it is that ghosts walk through walls. They're just following paths that were familiar to them when they were living. Buildings and floorplans change, but these restless spirits are none … Continue reading Inefficient Ghouls
An Excess of Wisdom
Kids, I'm a little nervous about something. I have an appointment with an oral surgeon in just two days. That surgeon will be removing my wisdom teeth. All four of them. It's an operation that I've been avoiding for six years, when I initially found out that two of those teeth were impacted. During those … Continue reading An Excess of Wisdom
