I’m out of order! 27 Aug 2013 | 05:33 am

Quite a Saturday 26 Aug 2013 | 05:05 am

Beer and Baseball 24 Aug 2013 | 06:35 am
It was way too nice today to mess around with pictures on the computer, so no Cubs entry today. I still intend to make that an entry, but it might not happen this weekend! After picking up Matt and d...

Remember back in the summer of 2009 when the teabaggers descended upon town hall meetings conducted by their local Congresscritters, and got all up in their grills about the Affordable Care Act? Ken a...
Sometimes it pays to have attitude 13 Aug 2013 | 05:44 am
I was listening to Green Day while working out today—shocking, I know!—and I was on the elliptical while the song “The Grouch” played. It made me laugh, because it’s such a misanthropic song, but I lo...
Summer revels 11 Aug 2013 | 07:59 am
