Canuckastan to Invade Vermont.

Okay, let me explain. No, too much, let me sum up:

Grandad launched an ICBM at Chicago due to a Canadian spammer that wasn’t.
In retaliation, Sixty arranged to divert the defunct spy satellite clobbering missile and have it blow up a bog in Ireland.
The subsequently diverted missile hit Bristol, UK instead. That’s it. Nothing more on [...]

The Problems Inherent in Doing a News Post

I started the day off with a "latest news" type post and in the making of this post (by bantering around the news sites and listing the most interesting stuff I could find for your reading pleasure) a friend of ours stopped by wanting to use me and my Internet connection to book tickets from [...]

I Think the Room’s Tilted…

Holy collywobbles! I think I entered some sort of sub-space pastrami around noon today and have yet to enter back into whatever passes for normality of any kind.

What About BOB? The Break Out Blogger Award

Yes, I have been awarded a BOB (Break Out Blogger) by Janet of Life in Westcliffe along with Grandad and a very unusual story of a young-warrior with leukemia. As I stated in the last edition of the highly questionable JT Evening News (published whenever I feel like it), I’ve always loved these awards [...]

Blogging Metaphor Final List

I recently took part in a group writing effort for Successful Blog in which blogger’s were asked to come up with a metaphor they thought described the art of blogging the best.

Have to update that darn sidebar!

One of the worst traits I have when it comes to blogging is not keeping my links section updated properly. So without further procratination on my part, I’ll be adding a couple more to the “Friends and Neighbors” section as I meant to do awhile back.
