Open Simsim – Bob

Uh, oh.
I really screwed up.  I totally misread this whole lent thing. 
Lent represents the 40 days baby jeebus spent in the desert being tempted by one of them evil doers.  Hmmm, funny how 40 is such a popular number in the bible….ark fans remember that it rained for 40 days and 40 nights.  I think Moses was [...]

Flour Power

First, I am not a trained economist, I know nothing about world economic markets or for that fact the price of beans in China.  However, I have stayed in a Holiday Inn (gratuitous plug) so as the commercial details, I know everything there is to know about our economy and where it’s going.
Where it’s going [...]

A whole lot of shakin’ going on

You know what, I never think about earthquakes. Part of that comes from living in the seismically stable, at least in my lifetime, region called the northeast. 
I am sure there are parts of the country in which school children practice earthquake drills, like tornado drills where they are instructed to take the appropriate cover to maximize their [...]

Da Moon

da moon.  Somehow in my margarita infused stupor I managed to take this photo through my telescope with my camera.   I guess everything was wobbling at the same speed…he, he, he

Night of the Dead Satellite

I went out tonight to see if I could view the infamous satellite US 193.  Yep, did the research, found the orbit, the time, the degrees above the horizon.  Found Polaris as a celestial reference point.  Then I stood and waited.
And waited.
And waited.
And waited.
Well, needless to say the only thing I accomplished was to freeze [...]

Dildosytters of Nantucket – Chapter two

It’s been over a month since I used the time machine so I thought I’d fire it up and go visit great, great, great, great Grandpa Johnson on Nantucket to see what was new in the wonderful world of 19th century dildo manufacturing.
Off to the time machine.
Here we go……..ttthhhhhhhppppptttt………………………………..
Hehehe I am back in Johnson’s on Nantucket, hmmm [...]

Strange Daze Indeed.

What a dream or was it dreams…..
I really gotta stop taking those damn SP’s before I go to bed.
So the next thing I know is that I am looking at some sort of rocket or space capsule that is stuffed full of people.  I am not sure who they are but I do know that [...]

Another day! Yeah!

We went out last night, tipped a couple of pints for Mr. Lowell and shared some pretty funny stories that had hidden themselves in the far corner of my brain about the big dog.  We got home home, crashed and had a great nights sleep and woke up to a beautiful sunny day here in the [...]

Good bye Old Friend

Damn, I am struggling.  
I have moments of when I am crying like a sissy and then hysterical laughter.  Damn, I hate this. 
My smile causes the tears stained streaks on my face to crack and itch.  
I am remembering the day my 100 pound Old English Sheepdog named Lowell first showed me that he loved to chase and catch a [...]
