About Me

My photo
I'm an artist, educator, militant anti-theist , and I write. I gamble on just about anything. And I like beer...but I love my wife. This blog contains observations from a funny old man who gets pissed off every once in a while.

Cooked my bride a lobster tail last night.

The doctor said he was going to check my reflexes so I kept dodging his little knee hammer until he yelled at me.

PONDER THIS


One does what one must.
^^A1^^

Guilty.
^^A2^^

Why isn't there a massive investigation?
^^A3^^

As a retired school teacher, I think that's a wonderful idea.
^^A4^^

Yeah, I've heard that before, but the truth is you have no idea how powerful parenthood is until you are charged with keeping your own offspring alive.
^^A5^^

Why not just flip the ladder over?
^^A6^^

He should have held the phone horizontally to match his glassess.
^^A7^^

Clever, I guess.
^^A8^^

This is Joyce Warshaw and she was on the news.
As is my habit I scanned the background for art. Now, look at the image on the right side. What the fuck is that?!
^^A9^^

It's careful not to damage the new walkway.
^^A10^^

Why would a sane person do such a thing?
^^A11^^

^^A12^^

People move to climes like this on purpose and live there year after year after year.

Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night...

Poor bastard.
^^A13^^

There are FOUR types of dog owners.
Type One:
Type Two:
Type Three Canadian:

Type Four: The out-of-work guy with a lot of time on his hands:

But I don't know how to describe this...
And...

^^A14^^

But a very nice one.
^^A15^^

I hate that girls use Halloween as an excuse to dress slutty. Like wtf - dress slutty whenever you want!

ARE YOU THE PROBLEM?


We are all tired of the pandemic. We all want it to end. But we can't drop our guard now - so close to returning to normal.
^^D1^^

If you read anything written in any year since 1918 about what to do in the event of a pandemic caused by an airborne virus EVERY ONE OF THEM would tell you to wear a mask - WITHOUT EXCEPTION.
But Donald Trump told you that masks were overrated and you believed him.
^^D2^^

This is Science vs. anti-vaxxers. Creationists, etc.

^^D3^^

My opinion doesn't matter. I want to know anything and everything that experts have to say about the subject in question. 

Stupid people ask "Well, what does he know?" But the real question is "What the fuck do you know?" And most likely it's the same knowledge level as a high schooler. But sometimes I forget that many of you prefer to take your healthcare advice from a reality TV host with embarrassing hair.

During my research, if an article states:
I discard it immediately.

And I never believe hearsay like this:

But there are millions of Americans who believe that their opinion is just as valuable as an expert's research analysis.
^^D4^^

^^D5^^

This is my beautiful next-door neighbor. After 8 crazy months in covidland, she's finally getting the vaccine.
A CNN poll disclosed that only 1/3 of nurses said they would get a vaccine. 1/3 would not and 1/3 needed to do more research.
That's awful news.
^^D6^^

I'm old and I do not think I deserve to go to the head of the vaccine line. I only have a few years left to live. I want to be toward the bottom of the list.
^^D7^^

I think about that every day.
^^D8^^

I will never understand this kind of irresponsiblity.


^^D10^^

Trump supporters are acting more and more like a cult and cults are dangerous.
^^D11^^

Bri-ish people don't pronounce the "t" because they drank it all.

GET LEARNT


Aerospace Engineers Propose Building Circular Runways

A Dutch team of aerospace engineers led by Henk Hesselink argues that future airports should be built with circular runways rather than linear ones. This would give pilots flexibility during variable weather conditions and allow for an easier traffic flow.

^^B1^^

Would want if I lived upnorth.
^^B2^^

You've been paramedecked!

They don't get paid enough.

Did you notice that she looks like she's in shock?

^^B3^^

^^B4^^

^^B5^^

I once toured a textile mill and was mesmerized by this machine.
It works on the exact principal as a silkscreen printer...
But they made it into a tube and put the squeegee inside it.
My guide was Mr. Fox and he was in charge of checking the Delta E.

I managed to talk him out of a few gallons of dye and made dozens of paintings that I titled "Mr. Fox's Magic Dye #1, etc."

The Man Who Found Forrest Fenn's Treasure

In 2010, New Mexico's Forrest Fenn buried a treasure chest, containing a million dollars worth of gold and jewelry, and launched a nationwide treasure hunt. Thousands of people tried to decipher the clues and find the box. In June of 2020, Fenn announced that someone had found and retrieved the treasure, but wished to remain anonymous. After all, lots of people had spent years on the quest, several had died, and lawsuits were pending. 

Forrest Fenn himself had endured harassment and threats over the treasure hunt. Fenn confirmed the find with photographs and then died in September. Writer Daniel Barbarisi was one of those who tried to solve the clues and find the treasure. After the announcement, he switched gears and tried to find the winner. He did and began a correspondence.

^^B7^^

I recently rewatched The Flight of the Pheonix and laughed at the credits when I saw that they had a location manager.

That must have been an easy job since the whole movie takes place in the middle of the desert.
^^B8^^

When things seem especially rough just ask yourself "Did I shit my pants today?" and if the answer is no, you're doing alright.

NAUGHTY BITS



^^C1^^

Leave it to the French

I really want to you go to this link.

^^C2^^

^^C3^^

Jeeez! The guy needed a masturbation aid. Cut him some slack!

This is the Venus of Willendorf. It is thought to be a "fertility symbol".

Bullshit! I say it's a masturbation aid for those long cold nights out on the mammoth hunt without the missus.
And for what it's worth...
^^C4^^

It's true.

And it starts early...
^^C5^^

Imagine if men could make money selling pictures of themselves naked.
^^C6^^

I hate to brag but I wooed my wife away from her last boyfriend who was a gynecologist who drove a Ferrari.

^^C7^^

^^C8^^

^^C9^^

Sometimes you just want to show off...
I call that 'Position #214. Ask my wife if you don't believe me.
^^C10^^

One year ago today I began to erase one of the characters a month from this original graphic until they were all gone. And for whatever reason, not one person commented that they noticed my rascalness.
NOTE: Since I wrote that one alert viewer did, in fact, notice it.

Add the digits of each number, double the result, and you get the next number. The missing number is 10.
