Goin’ All Robocop
In the spirit of living large, I asked my barber for a flat top. Hey, it’s a look. A cop look.
Dog Days
The library sent an email to remind us a book Donna borrowed is coming due. I told her I’d take it back when she’s done. I must have uttered the L-word, because Mister B jumped down from the couch and ran to the back door, which leads to the garage, wherein waits the truck and […]
If You Can’t Say Anything Nice … Aw, the Hell with That!
I didn’t listen to Rush Limbaugh’s radio show, but like everyone else couldn’t avoid hearing parts of it from time to time.
