Do not try this at home...

I’ve been cracking up a lot lately at those commercials about fire ant control. Obviously, the advertisement has missed the mark, because I can’t remember for the life of me what the product they’re hawking really is, but the commercial itself is pretty amusing. Basically, it features two guys doing... Sign in to see full entry.

Say what?

It’s funny how the mind works, or doesn’t. Freudian slips, malaprops, brain farts of the highest order, we as humans, and myself in particular as an often tired, somewhat groggy, occasionally impaired individual. I think of the old joke about the guy who tells his psychiatrist, “Doc, I think I had... Sign in to see full entry.

Strat's Dumb Joke of the Day: Part Sixto

I was walking past the mental hospital the other day, and all the patients were shouting "13! 13! 13!" The fence was too high to see over,but I saw a little gap in the fence and I looked through to see what was going on. Some bastard poked me in the eye with a stick. Then they all started shouting...

My Back Pages

“I was so much older then, I’m younger than that now.” These days, I find myself not wanting to sum up parts of my life in the doggerel of ’60s folk rock. Yet sitting in an ancient blue shoe box sits a packet of letters, cards, notes from years I tend to relegate, like the box itself, to some corner... Sign in to see full entry.

Up in smoke...

To smoke or not to smoke? That is no longer the question. Instead, the question seems to be whether we should enact smoking bans in South Carolina, to in effect tell people how to live and how to run their businesses. The idea has even raised its pointy, yellowed, tar-encrusted head right here in my... Sign in to see full entry.

Sun, sand, and a cunning plan...

Ah, Fripp Island in May! There’s something about the way the colors of the sky meet with the palette that is dark tidal marsh waters early in the morning. Less than a quarter of a mile to the east, if you’ve bothered to stir from the back porch, the gray-green expanse of ocean meets up with... Sign in to see full entry.

Strat's Dumb joke of the Day: Part Cinque

This one was so awful I just had to share it with the rest of the class. Enjoy... "A man was on the water for his weekly fishing trip. He began his day with an 8-pound bass on the first cast and a 7-pounder on the second. On the third cast he had just caught his first ever bass over 11 pounds when... Sign in to see full entry.

It's Prom night and the name is Bond. Strat Bond...

I found an old high school prom picture the other day. Please tell me we really didn't look like that. Too late. I know it's true. We were ugly and our mothers dressed us funny, at least until we were old enough to rebel. Then we started dressing truly horrendously. The prom picture, taken my junior...

About this Blog

Flotsam, jetsam, tangled threads and ADD moments. Stupid jokes and esoteric observations. An occasional deep thought, even though I try like hell to weed those out as often as possible. This is just a comfortable place to come get an occasional chuckle or two. And yeah, I left for awhile -- most of us do at one point or another -- and now I am back. I feel no obligation to explain; suffice it to say, "There's no place like home."
