Good Bye 2025
In what seems like the blink of an eye, another year is gone. We’ve survived yet another trip around the sun. While it’s still 365 days, the rotation seems to spin faster and faster every year. My resolution this year was not to make any resolutions, and I held to that. You can’t fail if…

Holiday Shopping: Tis the Season For Chaos
Behold: the holidays, when ordinary humans become unhinged treasure hunters of truly mediocre items. Every December, humanity collectively forgets that the items we are wrestling strangers for—fuzzy socks, boxed chocolates, personal hygiene box sets, and oddly scented candles, are typically available every single day of the year. Suddenly, a mug that says “Warm Wishes” becomes…

Some Funny Memes…
I often feel old, but when I see memes like these I definitely feel like a dinosaur! Unfortunately, these references about Generation X are quite true. This image truly reflects the comment, “If You Know, You Know.” The rules were simple. Destroy the other players. Especially the ones that wore glasses or had something weird…

The $820,000,000 Pizza Order (Yes, Really)
Think you’ve overspent on takeout before? Try dropping 10,000 Bitcoin on two Papa John’s pizzas. Sounds insane now, but back in 2010, that really happened. The year was 2010. Bitcoin was basically digital monopoly money that only nerdy cryptography forums cared about. Enter Laszlo Hanyecz, a programmer who decided he was hungry and ready to…

October is National Pizza Month
What have you been doing to celebrate this very important month of pizza remembrance? Pizza is obviously the most important of all foods, and it definitely does not require a month to remind us to eat it, but the fact that there is a month honoring this great staple of happiness is worthy of thinking…

Halloween: How Soon Is Too Soon?
It’s not uncommon for Christmas lights to be up in November, but when is it okay to put up the Halloween decorations? In my neighborhood, we had people starting to put up Halloween decorations in the last week of August. I’m not talking about a pumpkin or a scarecrow. I’m referring to full on inflatables,…

History Repeats Itself
Just like how old music comes back around to be trendy again, so do the ways we listen to it. In my prime time as a DJ in the 1990s, I would hit up music stores at least weekly, if not more, to further my quest of finding new music, or older hidden gems. One…

The Joys of Walmart
“Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” – Ferris Bueller That quote is from the end of the classic 1986 movie, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, starring Mathew Broderick. The quote is very true, especially when shopping at Walmart. I was shopping in one…

Merica’ 2025
We made it through another year of festivities, food, and explosions. What’s interesting about this great nation of ours is the wonderful ability to blow stuff up. When the Founding Fathers of our nation wrote, “Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness,” they probably weren’t picturing Carl from the trailer park launching flaming Roman candles…

A.I. Is My New Buddy
Who needs people when I have perfect algorithmic validation? I’m that person who is skeptical of new technology. I usually hold out as long as I can because I think something may just be a passing fad. Or, more often than not, I just don’t care to jump on the bandwagon with whatever the latest…

The Right Mood To Write…
As I write this, it’s November 25th and I have not posted one thing for the entire month up to this point. I used to use lame excuses saying I was too busy or whatever, but in the case of November, I just haven’t been in the mood to write. If I’m not in the…

Not Happy With The New Wheel of Fortune
Change is inevitable, and sometimes change is good, but change can be difficult to accept after 41 seasons (8,000 episodes) of a classic TV game show. Television producers have a bad habit of making change when it’s not needed. Examples of this include The Flintstones adding The Great Gazoo, Scooby Doo adding Scrappy, and Cousin…
