You don't have to roll out the red carpet for these whacky witticisms but

NOW PRESENTING: SOME VERY INTERESTING, BUT SICK, HUMOR! Fasten your seat belts, folks! This one’s gonna be bumpy... * Ride a cock horse to Banbury Cross; To see a fine lady upon a white horse.

It's time for the creepy and the scary . . . let the goose bumps rise!

I’LL TAKE “THINGS THAT MAKE YOU CRINGE” FOR $200, ALEX! Last Friday, if you recall, I spewed forth a series of a dozen or so tiny articles pertaining to the whacky and the weird, seeing if it was actually possible for anyone to choose the whackiest or the weirdest of the bunch. No easy task, I grant... Sign in to see full entry.

We all know the ending to "Oh, what a tangled web we weave . . . "

BUT APPARENTLY, BULLSHIT STILL MAKES THE WORLD GO ’ROUND! What’s the difference between an exaggeration, and a blatant lie? Not much these days, I guess. I’m one of those rare people who never bullshits anyone, because deep down, I know that, at some point, it’s going to come back around to bite me... Sign in to see full entry.

Another Monday . . . and another round of whacky witticisms! Enjoy . . .

It will probably be the same old nonsense for a whole new year!

THERE WILL NEVER BE A SHORTAGE OF FOLKS DOING ODD, SILLY OR STUPID THINGS, NOR A SHORTAGE OF ODD, SILLY OR STUPID GOINGS-ON! You all know the drill by now, people! I find the whacky stuff, spread it out before you for your enlightenment, enjoyment and critiquing, then let you decide which is the... Sign in to see full entry.

Starting a New Year's resolution . . . with a tiny dash of irony!

I GUESS IT REALLY IS A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL! One of the things I’ve been wanting to do for the longest time was get back into some serious reading. But not just any old thing, although the optimum word is ‘ old!’ I want to pick up and read some of what we might refer to as “the classics.” I do have... Sign in to see full entry.

Laugh, and the world laughs with you! Laugh, world, laugh . . .

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas. Now, back to the real world . . .

IT’S TOO BAD FLUFFY DOESN’T REALLY HAVE A SAY IN ALL THIS! If you recall about a week ago or so, I posted a blog about the unfair ‘food aggression’ test certain shelters were giving to dogs that resulting in many unnecessary euthanizations. Well, I found yet another article that is somewhat along... Sign in to see full entry.

For most of us, a brief Christmas hiatus - a time for friends and family

NO MATTER WHAT, HOW OR WHY YOU CELEBRATE - CELEBRATE! Well, it’s that time of year again. Trees, lights and decorations, gifts, good food and spirits, joy, laughter and togetherness - this is what the holidays are all about. Regardless of your faith, regardless of your beliefs, regardless of your... Sign in to see full entry.

For your Monday morning mayhem, a bit of a short story - Life Lesson #1

NOW THIS IS HOW TO TELL A TALE... A lonely old fisherman was sitting at the end of the pier, pole in hand, staring out over the water, watching his bobber playfully rise and fall with the surf. He looked slightly eager, slowly shaking his head, pursing his lips, and continuously looking around as if... Sign in to see full entry.
