Dancer, Dance, Dance

I just got off the phone after catching up with some friends and family. The two guys I talked to are people I have known for years, so they’re about my age. One of my friends was bragging about his new hearing aids that can connect via Bluetooth to his phone. I’m pretty sure some…

They’re Coming To Take Me Away

Shush, they’re listening to us. I know it’s dark and tight in this closet, but I think it’s the only place we can hide while we talk. Excuse the tin foil hat; we were short on Reynolds Wrap. You probably want to know why we are hiding. As I said, they’re listening to us. You…

Elementary

As I have said before in this space, I enjoy murder mysteries, especially the British ones. The ones set in the past are particularly fun. The costumes, the formal dialogue, the total disregard for the chain of evidence, and the crime-scene contamination. My wife and I were watching a new crime drama, set in today’s…

Damn, It’s Hot

Damn, it’s been hot…EVERYWHERE. I keep seeing different maps online that show the whole country colored orange (the color that usually represents that it’s cooking out there) and 100-degree temperatures from east to west and north to south. If it stays like this, Canadians will stay home to keep warm in the winter.  I keep…

Age Related

If I knew I was going to live this long, I would’ve taken better care of myself. Who of us hasn’t heard that saying or used it? Don’t believe it. Only the good die young…really! How about: He/she wasn’t sick a day of his/her life. Complete cow patty (trying to be good here). There are…

Highways and Byways

Over the past few weeks, I have driven quite a few miles and made a few observations while traveling on the highways and byways (that would make a great headline… make a note) of this fine country. I am going to share some of my thoughts from my time traversing this great country. I have…

What I Did On My Summer Vacation, 2026

Before I share my exciting summer vacation, I feel I should explain why I haven’t been posting blogs for a while. First, let me make this perfectly clear: it’s not my fault; it’s Joe Biden’s fault or Obama’s. I have absolutely no evidence to prove my claim, but do I really need any? It works…

“I used to be able…”

I am a man of a certain age, or as my sons put it, older than dirt and twice as disgusting. I guess that makes me a dirty old man. As I have advanced in age at a tremendous speed (I was 30 just a few days ago), I find myself using the phrase “I…

Prime Time

I’m just warning you, this will be an “In my day” article, but I’m also sure most of you will agree with me, even those born in the last 20 years. Here we go. Like everyone else who watches television, I am being forced to make some tough decisions. You know the kind, “cut the…

Weather or Not

I just walked in the door after my senior softball game. Why they let me in this league, I’ll never know. I hear you snickering. The weather today is beautiful. A clear blue sky, no wind, and 72°. This was our first game in about three weeks. Just a couple of days ago, there was…
